Airship API

Airship’s REST APIs for messaging, content personalization and audience management.

Libraries

Airship maintains open source server libraries to support your integrations with our APIs in multiple languages. Click below for library documentation.

Introduction

Airship provides a number of REST API endpoints collectively known as the Airship API Version 3, in support of our messaging product lines and related features. Version 3 is the current and only supported version of the Airship API.

API Request Format

All API requests are HTTP requests. For all requests with a body, the body may be in JSON format or other formats like CSV as specified for the endpoint. The proper Content-Type for JSON is application/json and the proper content type for CSV is text/csv.

Date-Time Format

All date-time values are represented as a string according to ISO 8601 in UTC.

  • The string must be in the format YYYY-MM-dd['T']hh:mm:ss['Z'] where the T can be replaced by a space and the Z is optional.
  • A T separator is preferred but not required. It will be included in all date-time values generated by the API. For example:
    • 2023-11-13T09:42:30Z
    • 2023-11-13T09:42:30
    • 2023-11-13 09:42:30Z
    • 2023-11-13 09:42:30
  • A trailing time zone identifier or offset should not be included.
  • UTC is implicit.

Color Format

All color values are represented by a string format reminiscent of CSS color values used for web programming. The format is #rrggbb, a literal # character followed by 6 hexadecimal digits representing 3 values in the range 00 to FF. The values are red, green, and blue color components.

API Response Format

All API responses are HTTP responses, making use of appropriate HTTP response codes. When a body is present, it SHALL be in JSON format, except in certain cases where reporting data MAY be returned in CSV format. The body of all JSON responses SHALL consist of a single JSON object, which SHALL contain a boolean ok attribute indicating overall success or failure. When a request results in a return value containing multiple entities, they SHALL be contained in an array-valued attribute, the name of which MAY vary by endpoint. For example, /api/tag will return a list of tags in the tags attribute, while /api/schedules will return a list of schedules in the schedules attribute. The name of the response object attribute containing the list of returned entities SHALL be contained in the Data-Attribute HTTP header.

Operation ID

All API calls that create or modify resources, or cause side effects, SHALL generate an operation ID. An operation ID is an opaque unique string that identifies a single API call, and can be used to group multiple entities or side effects as related, in reporting and troubleshooting logs. For example, the batch push API call can be used to send multiple pushes in one call. Each push has a unique push ID, but they will all share a common operation ID. This enables roll-ups of multiple related operations (such as push to local time or push to language) and better end-to-end tracing in the push pipeline. Operation IDs are returned in the JSON body of the response, in the operation_id attribute of the root response object. An operation ID will be generated even for error responses.

Response Codes

The API makes use of standard HTTP response codes, with standard HTTP semantics. Response codes in the 200 range indicate success. Codes in the 400 range indicate errors of a correctable nature. Codes in the 500 range indicate system errors.

This table lists general response definitions. Refer to the actual response definition per endpoint.

Response codeDescription
200 OKThe payload was accepted.
201 CreatedAn API request to create a new entity or entities was successful, and the entities were created.
202 AcceptedAn API request was successfully accepted into a processing queue to be processed later.
204 No ContentAn entity was successfully deleted.
400 Bad RequestParsing or validating the request failed.
401 UnauthorizedAuthentication information (the app key and secret) was either incorrect or missing.
403 ForbiddenAuthentication was correct, but the user does not have permission to access the requested API. This can happen if a feature is not included in the user’s Airship plan.
404 Not FoundA request was made for a non-existent entity.
405 Method Not AllowedA request was made using an HTTP method not supported by the endpoint. For example, sending a DELETE to /api/schedules.
406 UnacceptableThe client requested a version of the API that cannot be satisfied, because no compatible version is currently deployed.
409 ConflictAn entity could not be updated due to state conflict.
429 Too Many RequestsA request was denied because the app made too many requests to an API in a short period of time.

Validation

All requests must be validated. Proper validation at the API level can prevent invalid pushes from using resources in our delivery pipeline and educate API users about their own mistakes without involving Support. In the event of an error processing the request, the response body will contain one or more error objects. Parsing errors, arising from syntactically invalid JSON, should return an HTTP 400 Bad Request response. Semantic errors, arising from requests that are syntactically valid but otherwise malformed (for example, missing required fields), should return an HTTP 400 response, with a JSON body indicating details about the validation failure.

Some examples of specific validation cases that cause pushes to be rejected with an HTTP 400 error:

  • Invalid attributes — Any additional JSON keys that are not explicitly allowed by the spec will result in an HTTP 400 error, except where arbitrary keys are explicitly allowed (for example, the extra sections of a push payload).
  • Unconfigured open platform — Any open platform specified in the device_types array must be configured and active for the appKey. If the open platform is not configured, we will return an HTTP 400.
  • Missing payload — A push that specifies delivery to a platform but does not supply a payload for that platform is invalid.
  • Device identifier/restriction mismatch — A push that includes a device identifier in the audience selection but does not include the corresponding platform in the device_types specifier is invalid.
  • Schedule times — Requests to schedule pushes for times that have already passed will return an HTTP 400 response. However, requests to schedule local time pushes for a time that has elapsed in a local time zone will be accepted.
  • Unsupported platform feature — A push that includes features not supported on all platforms must explicitly target the supported platforms. Location is the only feature not supported across all platforms. This includes location expressions in predefined segments. Location pushes must specify device_types : [ ios, android ], or either iOS or Android explicitly.

Pagination

Some resource collections, such as tags and segments, may have a very large number of items, necessitating iterating through them in chunks (or pages) if an API consumer wishes to retrieve them all.

Request Parameters

There are two methods for pagination results:

  • start and limit
  • page and page_size

Using a non-unique identifier for the start parameter is unsound and will not paginate correctly. For endpoints that support sorting, if sorting is applied to a non-unique field, a secondary sort on a unique field must be used internally to ensure stable pagination results.

  • start — Optional string or integer. Identifies the starting element for paginating results. It can be either a unique string identifier or a zero-based offset, depending on the API.
  • limit — Optional integer. The maximum number of elements to return.
  • page — Optional integer. Specifies which page to retrieve, starting with 1.
  • page_size — Optional integer. The number of elements to return per page. The last page may have fewer elements.
  • sort — Optional string. The name of the field to sort results by. This is not necessarily supported by all endpoints.
  • order — Optional asc or desc. If the sort parameter is available, this parameter may be used to specify the direction of the sort as ascending or descending.

Link Header

Collections of entities SHALL be paginated by specifying a start point and a limit on the number of returned items as parameters of the request. The response SHALL include the requested items and a link to the next page of results. A link to the previous page MAY also be included if the underlying service supports it. For example, the Segments API supports previous page links. The links SHALL be provided in the Link HTTP header, as per RFC 5988 Web Linking, using the relations next and prev.

Count and Total

The number of items in the response SHALL be returned in the custom HTTP header Count, as well as in the "count" field of the response object. The total number of items in the collection MAY be returned in the custom HTTP header Total-Count, as well as in the "total_count" field of the response object, if the collection is countable and the total number of items is known.

Version Syntax

You must specify the version of the API you are using with the Accept HTTP header. If you do not specify an API version in the Accept header, a 406 is returned.

The content type used is a vendor-specific media type (see RFC 4288 Media Type Specifications and Registration Procedures) and must be specified as: application/vnd.urbanairship+json; version=3.

Transport Layer Security

As of October 6, 2020, Airship supports only Transport Layer Security (TLS) versions 1.2 and 1.3 in our APIs, in accordance with PCI Security Standards Council recommendations.

If your API integration uses TLS 1.0 or 1.1, contact our Support team for assistance migrating to TLS 1.2 or 1.3.

Delivery Speed Options

The Airship push API is designed for extremely high throughput to ensure delivery to your entire audience as fast as possible. Depending on the size and/or complexity of your audience and the urgency of the message, you may find that you need to either slow down or speed up the delivery. To that end, we offer the following add-on services: Boost and Throttling.

If you are interested in enabling Boost or Throttling, contact Support.

Boost

Boost optimizes your segmented messages through parallel processing. Consider adding Boost if your notifications are extremely time-sensitive. Boost is a paid add-on. Contact your Account Manager for details.

Throttling

For less time-sensitive messages, our standard delivery speed may cause undue pressure on your internal systems or APIs, for example, when millions of users open your app at the same time. Use Throttling to tune delivery to a level that doesn’t put strain on those systems.

Complex segments can cause delays in processing

When creating segments or pushes with logical expressions, keep in mind that one or more NOT statements may cause latency when sending notifications, as NOT operations are inherently more expensive to perform than OR or AND operations. For example, tag_a AND NOT tag_b is basically the same speed as tag_a AND tag_b, but just NOT tag_b is likely to be slower than just tag_b.

Latency is more significant with larger audiences. We recommend using AND statements in place of NOT statements whenever possible as a best practice.

Device changes can take a few minutes

Some requests to register or unregister information about a device may take a few minutes to process before you are able to see the changes. Keep this in mind when performing PUT or POST requests.

Base URL

Authentication

For additional information, including steps for creating bearer tokens and OAuth client credentials, see Airship API Security.

  • HTTP Authentication

    Basic Auth (App)
    Authorization header containing the word Basic followed by a space and a Base64-encoded string generated from your App KeyThe unique identifier for your Airship project. It is used to authenticate the application for API calls. and App SecretA secret used to authorize requests for low-security API calls. It is intended to be embedded in your distributed application, and as such is limited in what it can do. in appKey:appSecret format. For example, Basic YXBwX2tleTphcHBfc2VjcmV0.
  • HTTP Authentication

    Basic Auth (Master)
    Authorization header containing the word Basic followed by a space and a Base64-encoded string generated from your App KeyThe unique identifier for your Airship project. It is used to authenticate the application for API calls. and Master SecretA secret that can be used as the Basic authorization password for any API call. Guard the Master Secret carefully, and never embed it in an application you distribute to users. in appKey:masterSecret format. For example, Basic YXBwX2tleTptYXN0ZXJfc2VjcmV0.
  • HTTP Authentication

    Basic Auth (OAuth)
    Authorization header containing the word Basic followed by a space and a Base64-encoded string generated from your OAuth Client ID and Client Secret in client_id:client_secret format. For example, Basic YXBwX2tleTptYXN0ZXJfc2VjcmV0. Used only for requesting OAuth tokens. See OAuth.
  • HTTP Authentication

    Bearer Token
    Authorization header containing the word Bearer followed by a space and a bearer token generated from the Airship dashboard. You can generate tokens for different roles. If your role does not grant you access to a feature, the endpoint will respond with a 401 status code. Tokens can be revoked at will.
  • OAuth Authentication

    OAuth 2.0
    Authorization header containing the word Bearer followed by a space and an OAuth 2.0 JWT bearer token provided by our authorization server. See OAuth.

OAuth

Request an OAuth 2.0 token using Basic Auth or an assertion.

DELETE /api/user/messages/{push_id}

Delete a Message Center message completely, removing it from every user’s inbox. This is an asynchronous call; a success response means that the deletion has been queued for processing.

This delete call will work with either the message_id or the push_id of the accompanying push notification.

This endpoint will not work with a group_id from an automated message or a push to local time delivery. To delete a rich message that was part of an automated or local time delivery, you must use the relevant push_id from the operation.

 Note

For time-sensitive messages you should consider including an expiry time, as detailed in the In-App Message Object. Setting an expiry value will prevent you from having to manually remove messages.

Security:

path PARAMETERS
  • push_id : StringREQUIRED

    The push_id or message_id of the Rich Message you want to delete from users` inboxes.

    Format: uuid

List filtered pipelines

GET /api/pipelines/filtered

Lists all pipelines, which fulfill the provided filter criteria. Returns a response container, which contains an array of pipeline objects in the pipelines attribute. The response container also provides total count and links to the next page next_page and previous page prev_page, if applicable. We also always apply a sort order. By default we apply an ascending sort order on the name name field, but we also support a sort order on the started date started_date field. Pagination is always applied, which means that the pipeline result list is not the complete list of pipelines if the total count is greater than the page limit.

Security:

query PARAMETERS
  • start : Integer

    Non-negative zero-based index of the starting element for paginating results. Default value 0.

    Min: 1

  • limit : Integer

    The maximum number of results to return. This is effectively the page size for the response.

    Min: 1

  • enabled : Boolean

    If true, limits the listing to enabled pipelines. If false or omitted, lists all pipelines, whether enabled is true or false.

  • started_date_mills : Integer

    Limits the listing to only pipelines that were started after the specified date in milliseconds.

    Format: int64

  • prefix : String

    Search term, which is used as a prefix search term.

  • triggers : String

    0 or more trigger types. The triggers filter limits the listing of pipelines by the specified trigger types. For example, if you specify REGION_EXITED and REGION_ENTERED, only pipelines that are associated with region entry and region exit triggers will be shown. If no trigger types are specified, no triggers filter will be applied and all pipelines will be listed.

    Possible values: TAG_ADDED, TAG_REMOVED, FIRST_REG, FIRST_OPT_IN, ACTIVITY, REGION_ENTERED, REGION_EXITED, CUSTOM_EVENT, SUBSCRIPTION_ADDED, SUBSCRIPTION_REMOVED

  • sort : String

    Specifies the field, which should be sorted. Two fields are supported: name and started_date. If you omit the sort parameter, the default value name is used. If you provide an unknown field name, we will default to the name field.

    Possible values: name, started_date

  • order : String

    Specifies the sort order as ascending (asc) or descending (desc). If you omit the order parameter, the default value asc is used.

    Possible values: asc, desc

POST /api/experiments/validate

Accepts the same range of payloads as /api/experiments, but only parses and validates the payload without creating the experiment. This does the same amount of validation as the creation endpoint, including platform-specific validation, e.g., APNs byte limit checks. While this operation ensures the experiment is technically valid, it does not guarantee that a resulting push will succeed. An experiment may validate and still fail to be delivered. For example, you may have a valid experiment with no devices in your audience.

Custom Events

User events that occur outside of your app can be submitted to Airship for inclusion in analytics reporting, as triggers for Automation, or for export via Connect. These events can take place on the web, e.g., your website, social media, or in your back office systems such as CRM or POS software. Any event that can be associated with a mobile app user can be submitted as an Airship Custom Event. The events that you submit are associated with channels and are available to use as Custom Event triggers.

POST /api/channels/subscription_lists

Subscribe or unsubscribe channels to/from Subscription ListsAn audience list of users who are opted in to messaging about a specific topic. Users can manage their opt-in status per list using a Preference Center..

 Note

If you are using a single-channel Preference Center created before October 10, 2022, that has not been migrated to user-level, use the /api/channels/subscription_lists endpoint to add or remove individual channels to/from your subscription list. Otherwise, use the Scoped Named User batch operations endpoint to do so.

 Important

You must first create a subscription list in the dashboard, then you can refer to its ID when subscribing users. When subscribing users, if the list has not already been created in the dashboard, then the list will be created at the same time but will not be accessible from the dashboard; the list will available for API use only.

POST /api/channels/tags

Add, remove, or set tags on a channel.

 Important

A tag must be < 128 characters. A request with one or more tags longer than 128 characters will return a 400 response. We support up to 1,000 tags per channel. Adding more than 1,000 tags per channel can cause latency and service interruptions. We strongly recommend removing unused tags whenever possible, and using Custom EventsEvents that indicate that a user performed a predefined action, such as adding an item to a shopping cart, viewing a screen, or clicking an Unsubscribe button. Custom Events can trigger automation, including Sequences and Scenes. You can code them into your app or website, or send them to Airship from an external source using the Custom Event API. Custom Events contain properties that you can use to personalize messages. when appropriate. Please contact Support if you believe your use case requires more than 1,000 tags per channel, and they will help you find an alternative.

POST /api/channels/uninstall

Uninstalls a channel, removing it and all accompanying analytic data (including Performance Analytics) from Airship systems in accordance with data privacy law compliance.

Uninstallation is handled automatically by the Airship SDK and push systems. If a user decides to opt in to communications again (either by using your app or other user preferences), they will create a new channel and a new set of analytic data. The value of a Channel ID may be the same as before however none of the associated metadata will persist when a user opts in again. A new Channel ID will be created if the user clears their browser’s cookies and data, deletes and reinstalls the app, etc.

See Individual Data Privacy Rights Under Data Privacy Laws for more information about data privacy law compliance.

 Note

Channel uninstallation, like channel creation, is an asynchronous operation, and may take some time to complete.

Open Channels

Open Channels are custom communication channels that you can configure for messaging, using the same segmentation and scheduling tools available on natively-supported platforms (iOS, Android, etc.). With Open Channels, you define a new open platform, e.g., SMS, Slack, Acme™ Smart Toasters, and register the new platform with Airship.

If you are sending through the Push API, platform overrides for open platforms are covered in Open Channel Overrides. For open channel lookup, use the Channel Lookup endpoint.

POST /api/channels/open/tags

Manipulate a single open channel’s tags. Open channels are identified by address, not by their channel_id.

 Important

A tag must be < 128 characters. A request with one or more tags longer than 128 characters will return a 400 response. We support up to 1,000 tags per channel. Adding more than 1,000 tags per channel can cause latency and service interruptions. We strongly recommend removing unused tags whenever possible, and using Custom EventsEvents that indicate that a user performed a predefined action, such as adding an item to a shopping cart, viewing a screen, or clicking an Unsubscribe button. Custom Events can trigger automation, including Sequences and Scenes. You can code them into your app or website, or send them to Airship from an external source using the Custom Event API. Custom Events contain properties that you can use to personalize messages. when appropriate. Please contact Support if you believe your use case requires more than 1,000 tags per channel, and they will help you find an alternative.

Request Body

A single email channel object.

  • Content-Type: application/json

    Email channel object : Object

    An email channel object is the object used to create channels.

    There are two types of emails: commercial and transactional. Commercial emails are promotional. Transactional emails are functional responses to interactions with a your app or website, like receipts, legal notices, and password reset requests. Users must explicitly opt-in to receive commercial emails; users do not need to opt-in to receive transactional emails (though they can explicitly opt-out).

    Each channel uses opted_in and opted_out keys for both commercial and transactional emails. The value of each key is the date-time when the user subscribed to or unsubscribed from emails of either type — commercial or transactional. If a user has opted out of a particular email type (or the user never opted in to commercial emails), and the user is a part of your audience for a message of that type, the email designated for the opted-out user is dropped at delivery time. These values are all optional. However, an email channel with no opted_in or opted_out values can only receive transactional emails.

    If a channel has both opt_in and opt_out values for a particular email type, Airship respects the most recent date-time. So, if a user opted in to commercial emails after previously opting out, that user can receive commercial emails from you even though that user’s channel possesses both commercial_opted_in and commercial_opted_out values; if the opt-in date is prior to the opt-out date, the user will not receive commercial emails from you.

    Providing both opt-in and opt-out values for commercial email, transactional email, open tracking, or click tracking in a single request is considered invalid.

POST /api/channels/email/replace/{channel_id}

Creates a new email channel in place of the provided channel. You may use this endpoint to change a contact’s email address. When called with an email channel, this endpoint will:

  • Register a new channel
  • Associate the new email channel with the same user as the source channel
  • Uninstall the source channel

path PARAMETERS
  • channel_id : StringREQUIRED

    The email channel_id you want to modify.

Request Body

A single email channel object.

  • Content-Type: application/json

    Email channel object : Object

    An email channel object is the object used to create channels.

    There are two types of emails: commercial and transactional. Commercial emails are promotional. Transactional emails are functional responses to interactions with a your app or website, like receipts, legal notices, and password reset requests. Users must explicitly opt-in to receive commercial emails; users do not need to opt-in to receive transactional emails (though they can explicitly opt-out).

    Each channel uses opted_in and opted_out keys for both commercial and transactional emails. The value of each key is the date-time when the user subscribed to or unsubscribed from emails of either type — commercial or transactional. If a user has opted out of a particular email type (or the user never opted in to commercial emails), and the user is a part of your audience for a message of that type, the email designated for the opted-out user is dropped at delivery time. These values are all optional. However, an email channel with no opted_in or opted_out values can only receive transactional emails.

    If a channel has both opt_in and opt_out values for a particular email type, Airship respects the most recent date-time. So, if a user opted in to commercial emails after previously opting out, that user can receive commercial emails from you even though that user’s channel possesses both commercial_opted_in and commercial_opted_out values; if the opt-in date is prior to the opt-out date, the user will not receive commercial emails from you.

    Providing both opt-in and opt-out values for commercial email, transactional email, open tracking, or click tracking in a single request is considered invalid.

POST /api/channels/email/tags

Add, remove, or set tags for a single email channel.

 Important

A tag must be < 128 characters. A request with one or more tags longer than 128 characters will return a 400 response. We support up to 1,000 tags per channel. Adding more than 1,000 tags per channel can cause latency and service interruptions. We strongly recommend removing unused tags whenever possible, and using Custom EventsEvents that indicate that a user performed a predefined action, such as adding an item to a shopping cart, viewing a screen, or clicking an Unsubscribe button. Custom Events can trigger automation, including Sequences and Scenes. You can code them into your app or website, or send them to Airship from an external source using the Custom Event API. Custom Events contain properties that you can use to personalize messages. when appropriate. Please contact Support if you believe your use case requires more than 1,000 tags per channel, and they will help you find an alternative.

path PARAMETERS
  • email : StringREQUIRED

    The email channel_id you want to modify.

Request Body

  • Content-Type: application/json

    Email channel update object : Object

    An email channel object is the object used to update channels.

    There are two types of emails: commercial and transactional. Commercial emails are promotional. Transactional emails are functional responses to interactions with a your app or website, like receipts, legal notices, and password reset requests. Users must explicitly opt-in to receive commercial emails; users do not need to opt-in to receive transactional emails (though they can explicitly opt-out).

    Each channel uses opted_in and opted_out keys for both commercial and transactional emails. The value of each key is the date-time when the user subscribed to or unsubscribed from emails of either type — commercial or transactional. If a user has opted out of a particular email type (or the user never opted in to commercial emails), and the user is a part of your audience for a message of that type, the email designated for the opted-out user is dropped at delivery time. These values are all optional. However, an email channel with no opted_in or opted_out values can only receive transactional emails.

    If a channel has both opt_in and opt_out values for a particular email type, Airship respects the most recent date-time. So, if a user opted in to commercial emails after previously opting out, that user can receive commercial emails from you even though that user’s channel possesses both commercial_opted_in and commercial_opted_out values; if the opt-in date is prior to the opt-out date, the user will not receive commercial emails from you.

    OBJECT PROPERTIES
    • channel : ObjectREQUIRED

      OBJECT PROPERTIES
      • address : String

        The email address associated with the email channel. If provided, it must match the existing email address or the request will be rejected with a 400 status code.

      • commercial_opted_in : String

        The date-time when a user gave explicit permission to receive commercial emails.

        Format: date-time

      • commercial_opted_out : String

        The date-time when a user explicitly denied permission to receive commercial emails.

        Format: date-time

      • device_type : String

        The type of channel you are updating.

        The device property tag related to locale country setting.

      • locale_language : String

        The device property tag related to locale language setting.

      • suppression_state : String

        If an email channel is suppressed, the reason for its suppression. Email channels with any suppression state set will not have any delivery to them fulfilled. If a more specific reason is not known, use imported.

        Possible values: spam_complaint, commercial_spam_complaint, bounce, imported

      • timezone : String

        The device property tag related to time zone setting.

      • transactional_opted_in : String

POST /api/channels/sms

Create an SMS channel. If the channel has not opted in yet (the request did not contain opted_in), Airship creates the channel with opt_in set to false and the user receives a message prompting them to complete the opt-in flow; you can assign tags and organize pending channels before the user has finished the opt-in process, but you cannot send messages to channels until they opt in to your audience.

SMS notifications require a sender - a number that recipients will receive SMS notifications from. Contact Airship Sales or your Account Manager to provision your project for SMS notifications and complete the configuration.

 Note

Avoid repeated registration attempts. Repeated registrations of the same msisdn and sender without an opted_in value will result in multiple opt-in instruction messages being sent to the msisdn.

          • ?ua-tag-add=tag_group:tag&another_group:tag2 — adds a tag in tag_group to the channel_id.
          • ?ua-tag-remove=tag_group:tag&another_group:tag2 — removes a tag in tag group from the channel_id.

Named Users

A Named User is a proprietary identifier that maps customer-chosen IDs, e.g., CRM data, to Channels. It is useful to think of a Named User as an individual consumer who might have more than one mobile device registered with your app. For example, Named User “john_doe_123” might have a personal Android phone and an iPad, on both of which he has opted in for push notifications. If you want to reach John on both devices, associate the Channel (device) identifiers for each device to the Named User “john_doe_123,” and push to the Named User. Notifications will then fan out to each associated device.

POST /api/named_users/associate

Associate a channel or email address with a Named User (named_user_id). If the named_user_id does not already exist, this operation will create it. If the channel_id or email address is already associated with the named_user_id, this operation will do nothing.

 Warning

If a channel has an assigned Named User and you make an additional call to associate that same channel with a new Named User, the original Named User association will be removed and the new Named User and associated data will take its place. Additionally, all tags associated to the original Named User cannot be used to address this channel unless they are also associated with the new Named User.

Security:

POST /api/named_users/tags

Add, remove, or set tags on a Named User. A single request body may contain add and/or remove objects or a single set field. At least one of the add, remove, or set objects must be present in a request.

 Important

A tag must be < 128 characters. A request with one or more tags longer than 128 characters will return a 400 response. We support up to 1,000 tags per Named User. Adding more than 1,000 tags per Named User can cause latency and service interruptions. We strongly recommend removing unused tags whenever possible, and using Custom EventsEvents that indicate that a user performed a predefined action, such as adding an item to a shopping cart, viewing a screen, or clicking an Unsubscribe button. Custom Events can trigger automation, including Sequences and Scenes. You can code them into your app or website, or send them to Airship from an external source using the Custom Event API. Custom Events contain properties that you can use to personalize messages. when appropriate. Please contact Support if you believe your use case requires more than 1,000 tags per Named User, and they will help you find an alternative.

POST /api/named_users/{named_user_id}

Create or update a Named User by associating/disassociating channels and adding/removing tags and attributes in a single request.

 Warning

If a channel has an assigned Named User and you make an additional call to associate that same channel with a new Named User, the original Named User association will be removed and the new Named User and associated data will take its place. Additionally, all tags associated to the original Named User cannot be used to address this channel unless they are also associated with the new Named User.

POST /api/channels/open/tags

Manipulate a single open channel’s tags. Open channels are identified by address, not by their channel_id.

 Important

A tag must be < 128 characters. A request with one or more tags longer than 128 characters will return a 400 response. We support up to 1,000 tags per channel. Adding more than 1,000 tags per channel can cause latency and service interruptions. We strongly recommend removing unused tags whenever possible, and using Custom EventsEvents that indicate that a user performed a predefined action, such as adding an item to a shopping cart, viewing a screen, or clicking an Unsubscribe button. Custom Events can trigger automation, including Sequences and Scenes. You can code them into your app or website, or send them to Airship from an external source using the Custom Event API. Custom Events contain properties that you can use to personalize messages. when appropriate. Please contact Support if you believe your use case requires more than 1,000 tags per channel, and they will help you find an alternative.

When editing a Segment, be mindful of any scheduled pushes that target that Segment. If you have a scheduled push that targets a Segment, and you edit that Segment some time after the push’s creation, the push audience will not be updated to match the new Segment. The scheduled push will be sent to the version of the Segment that existed when the push was created, rather than the updated version.

Upload a CSV that will set Attribute values on the specified channels or Named Users.

The first entry in the uploaded CSV must be a header row. The first field must be one of the following identifier types: channel_id, msisdn, named_user, email_address.

Only one identifier type is allowed per file unless the identifier type name matches a custom Attribute schema for the associated app key.

You must include both msisdn and sms_sender columns when targeting SMS or MMS channel types. See example to the right.

Uploads must be newline-delimited identifiers (text/CSV) as described in RFC 4180, with commas as the delimiter, optionally double-quoted values, UTF-8 encoded, and with CRLF or LF line separators.

Static Lists

With the Static List API endpoint, you can target and manage lists of devices that are defined in systems outside of Airship. Any list or grouping of devices for which the canonical source of data about the members is elsewhere is a good candidate for Static Lists, e.g., members of a customer loyalty program. In the dashboard, they are referred to as Uploaded Lists.

Airship automatically deletes a Static list and all its versions after 90 days of inactivity. Timestamps used to calculate the 90-day period are the creation date, when updating list contents or metadata, and when sending a message (pushing) to the list. The creation date is the initial day one of the 90-day period. Each instance of updating or sending to the list resets the timestamp to day one.

After automatic deletion or deleting from the Airship dashboard, the list is removed from the upload history, is no longer visible in the Airship dashboard or through API calls, and is no longer available for audience segmentation.

PUT /api/lists/{list_name}/csv

Replace the contents of an existing static list via CSV file upload. Uploads must be newline-delimited identifiers (text/CSV) with commas as the delimiter.

The CSV format is two columns: identifier_type and identifier. The identifier is the associated identifier you wish to send to. The identifier_type must be one of:

  • named_user
  • ios_channel
  • android_channel
  • amazon_channel
  • sms_channel
  • email_channel
  • open_channel
  • web_channel

The first entry in the uploaded CSV may be a header row, which will be ignored. If present, the header row must contain exactly two entries, and the first column must not be an identifier_type as specified above.

 Note

The maximum number of identifier_type,identifier pairs that may be uploaded to a list is 10 million. Content-Encoding: gzip is supported (and recommended) on this endpoint to reduce network traffic.

 Warning

If an attempt to upload a list times out due to a poor connection, you must re-upload the list from scratch. Because we want to ensure that the entirety of a given list is successfully uploaded, we do not support partial list uploads.

Create and Send

Simultaneously send a notification to an audience of SMS, email, or open channel addresses and register channels for new addresses in your audience. Create and Send can help you immediately notify new open::, email, or sms contacts without having to wait for channel registration.

Addresses in the audience that are not yet associated with channels are registered as new channels. Addresses in the payload that are already registered to opted-in, or have an opted_in value that is newer than an opted_out value for their channel_id will still receive notifications, but are not registered as new channels.

 Note

You cannot update channel information or opt-in status from these endpoints. If you want to update channels, refer to the appropriate email, SMS, or open channel endpoints.

POST /api/create-and-send

Send a notification to an audience of SMS, email, or open channel addresses and simultaneously register new addresses in the audience as new channels. Addresses that are not yet associated with channels are registered as new channels. Addresses in the payload that are already registered to a channel_id and are either opted_in or have an opted_in value in the payload that is newer than the opted_out value associated with a channel will receive the notification, but are not re-registered as new channels. You cannot update opted_in values for existing channels through this endpoint.

 Warning

Duplicate addresses in the create-and-send array might receive redundant notifications, or fewer notifications than expected. You should remove duplicate addresses from your request before sending a create-and-send notification.

POST /api/schedules/create-and-send

Schedule a notification to an audience of SMS, email, or open channel addresses and simultaneously register those addresses as new channels. Addresses that are not yet associated with channels are registered as new channels. Addresses in the payload that are already registered to a channel_id and are either opted_in or have an opted_in value in the payload that is newer than the opted_out value associated with a channel will receive the notification, but are not re-registered as new channels.

You cannot update opted_in values for existing channels through this endpoint.

 Warning

Duplicate addresses in the create-and-send array might receive redundant notifications, or fewer notifications than expected. You should remove duplicate addresses from your request before scheduling a create-and-send notification.

Security:

Request Body

The request is much like other create-and-send operations, with a leading schedule object. The standard create-and-send payload sits inside a push object.

  • Content-Type: application/json

    Object

    OBJECT PROPERTIES
    • name : String

      A name for the schedule.

    • push : AnyREQUIRED

      One of
      • Create and Send to email channels

        When registering and sending to open channels, the device_type must be set to open::<open_channel_name>.

    • schedule : ObjectREQUIRED

      Similar to other schedule objects. However, create-and-send requests support scheduled_time only.

      OBJECT PROPERTIES
      • scheduled_time : StringREQUIRED

        The date-time when you want to perform your create-and-send operation. Users will receive the notification as soon as possible after the specified date-time. Format: date-time

Responses

  • 202

    Because this operation sends messages, a successful response is nearly identical to a /api/push response.

    RESPONSE BODY
    • Content-Type: application/vnd.urbanairship+json; version=3

      A push response contains a list of identifiers for the notifications sent in the request.

      OBJECT PROPERTIES

cu.uninstall(channels: chans)

POST /api/channels/uninstall

Uninstalls a channel, removing it and all accompanying analytic data (including Performance Analytics) from Airship systems in accordance with data privacy law compliance.

Uninstallation is handled automatically by the Airship SDK and push systems. If a user decides to opt in to communications again (either by using your app or other user preferences), they will create a new channel and a new set of analytic data. The value of a Channel ID may be the same as before however none of the associated metadata will persist when a user opts in again. A new Channel ID will be created if the user clears their browser’s cookies and data, deletes and reinstalls the app, etc.

See Individual Data Privacy Rights Under Data Privacy Laws for more information about data privacy law compliance.

 Note

Channel uninstallation, like channel creation, is an asynchronous operation, and may take some time to complete.

Data Formats

Event Segmentation

Event Segmentation lets you target audiences based on lifecycle actions or Custom Events that have occurred.

To Segment based on event activity, include an Activity Object in your audience, and an optional Where Object to filter on specific event properties.

Activity audience object

Activity audience object

{
   "audience": {
      "activity": "app_open",
      "operator": "greater",
      "value": 2,
      "after": 3,
      "precision": "days",
      "where": {
         "property": "/_triggering_push/campaigns/categories",
         "operator": "equals",
         "value": "neowise"
      }
   }
}
  • The activity object defines the target audience based on lifecycle actions or Custom Event activity, using comparison operators on activity count and recency. Optionally include a where object, which filters for specific activity values.

    In the example to the right, the target audience is users who have opened your app from a notification from the “neowise” campaign at least twice, 3 days ago.

    OBJECT PROPERTIES
    • activity : StringREQUIRED

      The target event activity, e.g., app_open.

      Default event values are enumerated below. If you create a custom or predefined event that you wish to segment users on, you must register the event in the Airship dashboard under Settings » Project Configuration » Events.

      Possible values: app_open, message_received, message_center_read, message_center_delivered, message_center_deleted, in_app_message_display, in_app_message_resolution, in_app_message_expiration, screen_view, web_session, web_click, short_link_click, first_seen, sms_aborted, sms_delivered, sms_dispatched, sms_expired, sms_failed, sms_rejected, sms_undeliverable, sms_unknown, email_bounce, email_click, email_delay, email_delivered, email_injection, email_open, email_unsubscribe, scene_displayed, scene_completed, scene_incomplete, survey_displayed, survey_submitted, survey_not_submitted

      • Integer

    • metric : String

      The metric you are targeting for the event.

      When using the metric count or total_value, operator and value are required.

      When using either first or last, operator and value are not allowed. Use one of the following combinations instead:

      • before/precision
      • after/precision
      • on/on_precision
      MetricDescription
      countEvaluate based on the number of event occurrences.
      total_valueEvaluate based on the cumulative event value associated with the target user.
      lastEvaluate based on the last occurrence of an event for a given user/time window.
      firstEvaluate based on the first occurrence of an event for a given user/time window.

      Possible values: count, total_value, last, first

    • on : Any

      Use on in conjunction with the first or last metric to indicate either a specific date or period with precision. Use either:

      • A date in ISO 8601 format, e.g., 2020-08-10T17:28:34+0000 or
      • An integer that, when combined with the on_precision property, specifies the time period. For example, use "on": 12 with "on_precision: "month" to target events that occurred in December.

      One of
    • on_precision : String

      When using the first or last metric with the on property to target events on. For example, for the 5th of any month, or only in March, use on_precision.

    • operator : StringREQUIRED

      The comparison operator used to evaluate the activity expression. Use these operators (greater/less than, equal to, equal or greater/equal or less) when the metric is either count or total_value.

      Possible values: greater, less, equals, greater_eq, less_eq

    • precision : String

      If using a relative number (integer) for the before/after/on property, the precision value will be interpreted as the number of time units ago, e.g., 7 days ago. Defaults to days.

      Possible values: days, weeks, months, years

    • value : NumberREQUIRED

      The value that the operator uses to evaluate the target audience.

  • An attribute object with a DATE schema type. Performs absolute date comparisons for ISO-formatted date values or a relative date comparisons given an integer value and precision, e.g., days, months. Use a date attribute to target a channel or Named User based on the date values.

    OBJECT PROPERTIES
    • attribute : StringREQUIRED

      The key for the date attribute that you previously defined in the Airship UI, e.g., "birth_date". Max length: 256 Min length: 1

    • operator : StringREQUIRED

      The operator used to evaluate the attribute expression. The operator that you use with a date attribute will determine which additional properties will be required in the object. See table for required fields.

      OperatorRequired properties
      is_emptyattribute
      beforeattribute, value, precision*
      afterattribute, value, precision*
      rangeattribute, value
      equalsattribute, value, precision**

      * precision is required, but enum values are different than with an equals operator

      ** precision is required, but enum values are different than with a before or after operator

      Date Attribute Operators:

      • is_empty— Evaluates to true if a channel or Named User does not have a value for the attribute.

      • before— Value is one of:

        • String, ISO 8601 inclusive date, optionally including an offset, e.g., 2007-03-01T13:00:00+08:00. The value will be converted and stored as UTC.

        • Integer, Relative number of units from the current time (i.e., now) into the past. Example: "before": 20 indicates “at least 20 years ago” given a precision of years.

        • String with the value "now", representing the current date-time, i.e., “before now”. When using the now value, no precision is required.

          Note: When using the before operator, precision value must be one of years, months, days, hours, or minutes.

      • after— Values for after behave identically to before, as described above.

      • range— An ISO 8601 time interval. The format consists of an inclusive start and an exclusive end time date separated with a /, e.g., 2019-03-01T13:00:00/2019-05-11T15:30:00. range does not have a precision.

      • equals— allows for selecting specific or non-specific dates as determined by the precision provided in the attribute object.

        Note: When using the equals operator, precision must be one of:

        • day — an integer which represents the day of the month or “now”.
        • month — an integer which represents the month of the year starting with 1 for Jan or “now” which will use the value of the current month.
        • month_day — a string in the format of “mm-dd” which represents a month and day. Ex. 05-04 is May 4th. Value can also be “now”. If today is 2020-03-09, then value will be “03-09”.
        • year_month — a string in the format of “yyyy-mm” which represents a year and month. Ex. 2020-05 is May 2020. Value can also be “now”. If today is 2020-03-09, then value will be “2020-03”.
        • year_month_day — a string in the format of “yyyy-mm-dd” which represents a specific year, month, and day. Ex. 2020-05-04. Value can also be “now”. If today is 2020-03-09, then value will be “2020-03-09”.
        • or value can be “now” which is the current date-time.

      Possible values: is_empty, before, after, range, equals

    • precision : String

      The precision, expressed as a timing interval unit, that Airship uses to evaluate a date attribute expression.

      Possible values: years, months, days, hours, minutes, day, month, month_day, year_month, year_month_day

    • relative_to : String

      Specifies whether the date is in the future or in the past. If missing, it defaults to past.

      Possible values: future, past

    • value : Any

      One of
      • String

        A date-time. Format: date-time

      • Integer

        An integer specifying the relative number of units, e.g., days, years, from the current time into the past.

        The URL to be downloaded by the UA Media Attachment extension. The media file should be one of the following types, and not exceed the maximum file size. Image (5 MB): JPEG, GIF, PNG. Audio (10 MB): AIFF, WAV, MP3, M4A. Video (50 MB): MPEG, MPEG2, MP4, AVI. Although these are the theoretical file size maximums, for performance the actual resources should be much smaller. See Media Guidelines.

    • mutable_content : Boolean

      When set to true, content may be modified by an extension. This flag will be automatically set to true if there is a media_attachment in the payload. iOS 10 or above. Defaults to false.

    • priority : Integer

      Sets the APNs priority of the delivery. Valid values are 10 (immediate delivery) and 5 (conserve battery). The default value will be 10 if the notification is user-visible (In-App Message payload does not count towards visibility) which means there is either an alert, badge, or sound. If the notification is not user-visible, the priority will default to 5 and it is not legal to override this value to 10. Attempts to do so will cause the API respond with a 400 Bad Request response. enum: [5, 10] Format: int32

If the notification is critical, the dictionary has a key for "name" (equivalent to the current sound string), "volume" (a number between 0 and 1 indicating the volume), and "critical" (a boolean indicating if the alert should override local device settings and still notify).

    • subtitle : String

      A string that will display below the title of the notification. This is provided as a convenience for setting the subtitle in the alert JSON object. If a subtitle is also defined in the alert JSON object, this value is ignored. iOS 10.

    • target_content_id : String

      The identifier of the window to bring forward when the notification is opened. Used for multi-window content, such as App Clips.

    • thread_id : String

      A unique identifier used to group notifications into separate threads in the Notification Center and on the lock screen. Grouped notifications are available beginning with iOS 12.

    • title : String

      A short string describing the purpose of the notification. This is provided as a convenience for setting the title in the alert JSON object. If a title is also defined in the alert JSON object, this value is ignored.

Platform overrides with templates

Override push settings and provide content for specific platforms (selected by device_type) using a template. Templated platform overrides automatically allow personalization using {{handlebars}}Handlebars is Airship’s templating language for personalization. Handlebars expressions use double curly braces wrapped around a content template, ranging from a simple variable, e.g., {{first_name}}, to complex evaluations of personalization data..

 Note

The fields key under template is deprecated. This old method is still supported, but has been superseded by just using {{handlebars}} directly in the payload.

  • Notification fields specific to email messages with an inline template for use in a /api/create-and-send payload. Using a template enables you to provide and populate variables in your notification. You can also add conditional statements based on those variables, determining message text that to send to each member of your audience. Conditionals begin with {{#operator}} and end with {{/operator}}. For more information, see HandlebarsHandlebars is Airship’s templating language for personalization. Handlebars expressions use double curly braces wrapped around a content template, ranging from a simple variable, e.g., {{first_name}}, to complex evaluations of personalization data..

    • badge : Integer

      May be an integer, the value auto, or an increment value. Increments are expressed by integers formatted as strings, and prefixed with either + (U+002B) or - (U+002D). The numeric portion may be an integer value. Format: int32

    • category : String

      Sets the APNs category for the push. This maps directly to the category field in the aps section of the APNs payload.

    • collapse_id : String

      When there is a newer message that renders an older, related message irrelevant to the client app, the new message replaces the older message with the same collapse_id. Similar to the GCM collapse_key. The value of this key must not exceed 64 bytes. iOS 10 or above.

    • content_available : Boolean

      If true, the payload is delivered to your app in the background.

For GIFs, this value should be the frame number (an integer, with the first frame being frame 1) to show in the thumbnail. For video, the value should be the time (in seconds) into the video from which to grab the thumbnail. This value should not be set for static resources like JPGs. If the time does not exist in the resource, either because it is out of bounds or because the resource is static, the thumbnail will not show. Format: int32

      • url : StringREQUIRED

        The URL to be downloaded by the UA Media Attachment extension. The media file should be one of the following types, and not exceed the maximum file size. Image (5 MB): JPEG, GIF, PNG.

  • Template and notification overrides for a Create and Send payload with device_types set to mms. With a template, you can provide and populate variables and conditional statements based on those variables. Conditionals begin with {{#operator}} and end with {{/operator}}. For more information, see HandlebarsHandlebars is Airship’s templating language for personalization. Handlebars expressions use double curly braces wrapped around a content template, ranging from a simple variable, e.g., {{first_name}}, to complex evaluations of personalization data..

   ]
}
  • An event selector is a JSON dictionary consisting of a set of (possibly negated) event-specific selectors joined together by a doubly-nested set of operators, in disjunctive or conjunctive normal form. That is, only queries of the pattern “single AND of ORs” or “single OR of ANDs” are allowed (no further nesting is allowed), and only leaf nodes of such queries may be negated. Elision of single-value operators is allowed for the sake of brevity/usability on writes, but responses from our servers will always be fully qualified.

    Event-specific selectors are allowed to reference any field in a potentially matching event, at any nesting depth therein, with the goal of matching their structure to existing API formats, both inbound and outbound.

    Top-level operator dictionaries are of the form {"and": []} or {"or": []}, where the members of the array will be operator dictionaries of the other type (“AND of ORs” or “OR of ANDs”), or if eliding on ingress, negation operator dictionaries or event-specific selectors.

    Negation operator dictionaries are of the form {"not": {}} where the inner object is strictly an event-specific selector. I.e., only leaf nodes may be negated, in keeping with the tenets of conjunctive/disjunctive normal form.

  • Event identifiers describe events that Automation can detect and act on. They may be described by a simple string, e.g., open, or by an object for parameterized events, e.g., { "tag_added" : "<t>" }.

    One of
    • Simple event identifier : String

      Triggers the pipeline whenever an event of the following types occurs. first_open and first_opt_in are only available in immediate triggers.

      • open events occur whenever your audience opens your app.
      • first_open events occur when your audience opens your app for the first time.
      • first_opt_in events represent the first time your audience opts into email (commercial only), sms, or open notifications.
      • double_opt_in events occur when a new email channel registration occurs with the "opt_in_mode": "double" parameter.
      • When used without a value, region_entered and region_exited types cause the trigger to fire whenever an audience member enters or exits any region.

      Possible values: open, first_open, first_opt_in, double_opt_in, region_entered, region_exited

    • Compound event identifier : Object

      A compound event identifier is a JSON dictionary with a single key indicating the event type, and a value specifying the specific parameter to match on.

      • activation_time : String

        The date-time indicating a time at which the trigger will automatically become active.

        Format: date-time

      • condition : Array [Any]

        A single condition set or array of condition sets. It is a collection of one or more conditions and an operator for combining them, in the case that there are multiple conditions. A condition set follows the same general syntax as a compound selector. It is a JSON dictionary with a single key indicating the operator. The key’s value is an array of one or more condition objects. Taken together, the operator and set of conditions form a boolean expression which must evaluate to true for a pipeline to be activated and its outcomes executed. Valid operators for a condition set are and and or. This field is evaluated before the pipeline is entered and only evaluated against events for the triggers on which they are set, which is noticeable when using multiple triggers.

                • tag : Tag conditions

                  Tag conditions have three possible attributes: tag_name, group, and negated. Tag conditions can be replaced by segmentation conditions, which offer more features. But note that the behavior of tag conditions is slightly different than a segmentation condition using tag selectors when it comes to contacts. Tag conditions evaluate against a combined set of all tags of all channels. Segmentation conditions evaluate against all the channels of a contact individually to see if at least one channel satisfies the condition.

      • custom_event : Event selector

        A Custom Event selector is an event selector that describes the specific criteria a Custom Event must fulfill in order to trigger an automation. Supported Custom Event fields in the default scope are "name" (string) and ["value"]. Custom Events also have a map of properties that may also be selected under the "properties" scope. Values for the "properties" key may be string, boolean, number, or an array of strings.

      • deactivation_time : String

        The date-time indicating a time at which the trigger will automatically become inactive.

        Format: date-time

      • double_opt_in : Any

        Matches when a double opt-in registration matching the specified criteria was made for a channel. A double opt-in selector is a complex selector that describes the specific criteria a double opt-in registration must fulfill in order for it to qualify as a match for triggering pipelines. The only supported value for scope is properties. All value selectors, except for date, are supported. The key object supports a simple string to select the value of a top-level key or any JsonPath query for maximum flexibility. For situations where a compound event identifier is necessary (e.g., when including trigger_id), but no selector is present or desired, an empty object {} is allowed. "immediate_trigger": "double_opt_in" and "immediate_trigger": { "id": "8e1a61d7-7e9d-4870-a548-2d4d6eb6405f", "double_opt_in": {} } are equivalent (assuming the ID is correct).

        One of
        • Event selector

          An event selector is a JSON dictionary consisting of a set of (possibly negated) event-specific selectors joined together by a doubly-nested set of operators, in disjunctive or conjunctive normal form. That is, only queries of the pattern “single AND of ORs” or “single OR of ANDs” are allowed (no further nesting is allowed), and only leaf nodes of such queries may be negated. Elision of single-value operators is allowed for the sake of brevity/usability on writes, but responses from our servers will always be fully qualified.

          Event-specific selectors are allowed to reference any field in a potentially matching event, at any nesting depth therein, with the goal of matching their structure to existing API formats, both inbound and outbound.

          Top-level operator dictionaries are of the form {"and": []} or {"or": []}, where the members of the array will be operator dictionaries of the other type (“AND of ORs” or “OR of ANDs”), or if eliding on ingress, negation operator dictionaries or event-specific selectors.

          Negation operator dictionaries are of the form {"not": {}} where the inner object is strictly an event-specific selector. I.e., only leaf nodes may be negated, in keeping with the tenets of conjunctive/disjunctive normal form.

Subscription conditions

Example

{ "name" : "Pipeline with Subscription Conditions",
  "enabled" : true,
  "immediate_trigger" : "/* ... */",
  "outcome" : "/* ... */",
  "condition": [
  { "or" : [
      {"subscription" : {"list_name": "sports_updates"}},
      {"subscription" : {"list_name": "silence", "negated": true}}]
  }]
}
  • Subscription conditions have two possible attributes: list_name and negated.

    OBJECT PROPERTIES
    • list_name : StringREQUIRED

      The name of the subscription list to be matched.

    • negated : Boolean

      A boolean indicating the condition should match on the absence from the list.

Tag conditions

Example

{
    "name" : "Pipeline with Tag Conditions",
    "enabled" : true,
    "immediate_trigger" : "/* ... */",
    "outcome" : "/* ... */",
    "condition": [
        {
            "or" : [
                {
                    "tag" : {
                        "tag_name" : "VIP"
                    }

                },
                {
                    "tag" : {
                        "tag_name": "dont_push",
                        "group": "my_special_sandbox",
                        "negated": true
                    }
                }
            ]
        }
    ]
}
  • Tag conditions have three possible attributes: tag_name, group, and negated. Tag conditions can be replaced by segmentation conditions, which offer more features. But note that the behavior of tag conditions is slightly different than a segmentation condition using tag selectors when it comes to contacts. Tag conditions evaluate against a combined set of all tags of all channels. Segmentation conditions evaluate against all the channels of a contact individually to see if at least one channel satisfies the condition.

    OBJECT PROPERTIES
    • group : String

      A tag group. Defaults to device.

    • negated : Boolean

      If true, the condition will match on the absence of a tag. If absent or false, the condition will match on the presence of a tag.

    • tag_name : StringREQUIRED

      The name of the tag the condition will match against.

Create and Send

Objects and samples for /create-and-send endpoints. A full object can contain parts of schedule, template, audience, and platform override objects (for email, sms, or open:: platforms).

The notification payload for Create and Send objects supports both stored and inline templates. Using inline templates, you can define and populate variables to personalize notifications to your new channels.

 Note

You cannot update channel information or opt-in status using create-and-send. If you want to update channels, refer to the appropriate email, sms, or open channel endpoints.

    OBJECT PROPERTIES
    • body : ObjectREQUIRED

      Contains information about your Custom Event. While only the event name is required, it is recommended that you provide as much information in this object as possible, so that your event is relevant and informative.

      OBJECT PROPERTIES
      • interaction_id : String

        The identifier defining where the event occurred. In a traditional website, this would be the path and query string from the URL. In a single page app that uses hash routing, it would be the path, query string, and fragment identifier.

      • interaction_type : String

        Describes the type of interaction that triggered the event, e.g., url, social, email. This should almost always be ‘url’ for web events. Airship can separate events with the same name by interaction_type, providing greater insight into Custom Events.

      • name : StringREQUIRED

        A plain-text name for the event. Airship’s analytics systems will roll up events with the same name, providing counts and total value associated with the event. This value cannot contain upper-case characters. If the name contains upper-case characters, you will receive a 400 response.

        Pattern: [^A-Z]

      • properties : Object

        An object containing Custom Event properties. You can use handlebars to access Custom Event properties in templates or messages triggered by the Custom Event. Items in the properties object are limited to a 255 character maximum string length.

      • session_id : String

        The user session during which the event occurred. You must supply and maintain session identifiers.

      • transaction : String

        If the event is one in a series representing a single transaction, use the transaction field to tie events together.

      • value : Number

        If the event is associated with a count or amount, the ‘value’ field carries that information. Airship will treats this field as a representation of money; mathematical operations will use fixed precision representations of this field.
