Using an APNS Delivery in a Campaign

To configure a message for APNS in a campaign:

  1. When creating a message for a campaign the sending mode must be “SMS Only” and the Delivery Channel should be the APNS Delivery Channel configured above.

  2. In the message content screen, specify a content URL that produces a JSON payload that can be consumed by APNS. Static content or scripted static content URLs may use Connect merge tags.

An example JSON payload is shown below. The "<%[First Name]%>" merge tag will be replaced with the first name from each customer record.

{ "aps" : { "alert" : {"loc-key":"Dear <%[First Name]%>, %@ has risen to %@",
"loc-args":["HBC","99"]},
"badge" : 42} }
