Sending a Notification

You can send your user base a notification through their mobile device, by email, or by both! Sending a notification is a great way to prompt a reminder, advertise new content that has been recently published on the platform, or direct the users to specific content in real time. 

With our notification editor, you are able to send a one-time notification or schedule a notification at a cadence of your choosing. You may also set a specific date and time to send the notification at. This is helpful when setting up future notifications. 

Notification Features:

Send Mode: Choose to send your notification by email, mobile text, or by both, in case the user has their notifications turned off. 

Title: Provide your notification with a title. The best practice is to be descriptive yet short.

Body: Here is your opportunity to get a bit more lengthy, this will be the body copy of your notification. 

Deep link path: With this option, you can add a link to specific content on the platform. 

Send

One-Time: Choose to send just once.
