Overview

Catapush reliable push notifications allows you to:

  1. Send push notifications and in app messages using Catapush's REST API
  2. Track push notification delivery report status

1. Send push notifications and in app messages using Catapush's REST API

You can also send messages using Catapush REST API. To send a message, just make an HTTP POST to Catapush with the body of the message and the phone number or your users' unique identifier you want to send it to.

Push messages must be sent from Catapush push-enabled phone numbers if you want to use fallback SMS option due to the architecture of the global SMS network.

2. Track push notifications delivery report status

Using standard HTTP, Catapush will call your service in real time providing single message delivery report status and related timestamp, allowing you to treat separate messages and store data about the delivery status for future reference.

In particular push notifications delivery status include:

  • sent
  • delivered on the mobile terminal
  • open/read
  • clicked on URL
  • If an error occurs type of delivery error (ex. number not valid)

With that out the way, let's go on the next step.
