Push Notifications
The playPORTAL API can be used to send mobile push notifications. Make sure you have enabled and configured push notifications in playPORTAL Studio for your app before using these endpoints. You also must be able to generate an iOS device token or Android registration ID to register a user to receive notifications in your app.
Reminder: if you are using an app/client ID in sandbox, you must use sandbox.playportal.io as the endpoint for your requests. Requests to api.playportal.io with a sandbox client ID will fail!
