Open Channels\uf0c1

Create Open Channel\uf0c1

Upon creation an open channel needs an address, boolean opt-in value, and an open platform. Further params are optional, and can be set when updating an open channel.

require 'urbanairship'
UA = Urbanairship
airship = UA::Client.new(key:'application_key', secret:'master_secret')
open_channel = UA::OpenChannel.new(client: airship)
open_channel.opt_in = true
open_channel.address = 'address'
open_channel.open_platform = 'platform'
open_channel.create()

Note

The creation of an open channel should yield a 201 response. This is the minimum required to create an open channel. opt_in must be a boolean, address and open_platform must be strings.

Update Open Channel\uf0c1

Updating an open channel is done by updating the attributes on the open channel.

require 'urbanairship'
UA = Urbanairship
airship = UA::Client.new(key:'application_key', secret:'master_secret')
open_channel = UA::OpenChannel.new(client: airship)
open_channel.opt_in = true
open_channel.address = 'address'
open_channel.open_platform = 'platform'
open_channel.channel_id = 'channel_id'
open_channel.tags= ['tag1', 'tag2']
open_channel.identifiers = 'identifiers'

#creates the open_channel with all the listed attributes
open_channel.create()

#updates open_channel tags
open_channel.tags = ['tag3', 'tag4']
open_channel.update(set_tags: true)

Note

Not all of the attributes listed above have to be present to update an open channel.

Lookup Open Channel\uf0c1

Looking up an open channel is done by passing the channel_id in question to the lookup method.

require 'urbanairship'
UA = Urbanairship
airship = UA::Client.new(key:'application_key', secret:'master_secret')
open_channel = UA::OpenChannel.new(client: airship)
open_channel.lookup(channel_id: 'channel_id')
