Simple push

Overview


Simple push is a standard push notification interacting with your operating system. If an app is not active (was closed or running in the background) in the moment of receiving simple push, it appears in the notification center. When a customer clicks the notification, they are taken to the application and a simple push is presented.

If an app is active, the simple push is presented right away.

Note:

Additionaly, iOS and React Native (iOS) simple push campaigns support two types of Rich Media extensions:


Add support for Rich Media Push Notifications in your application. See Rich Media in Push Notifications section.

Configuration


Simple push campaign is served by push notifications. See:

Additionally, check possible available configuration options in the Settings.

Handling actions from simple push


Handling main actions from campaigns depends on campaign type and operating system and it is described here.

Additional in-app alert when simple push is received


Note: This feature is available only in iOS SDK, React Native SDK (iOS) and Flutter SDK (iOS).

The iOS SDK displays an additional alert in the application after a simple push campaign is received and it is configured with OPEN_URL or DEEP_LINKING action. This alert is displayed in the middle of the screen with content from the native notification payload. This is the default behavior.

You can disable it in the SDK Settings - Enable/disable notification alerts.
