How To Create Push Notifications in Aampe

​

Step 1: Create a Message

Navigate to the Messages tab. Click Create new message. Choose Mobile push for your channel. In the Message setup panel, give your message a name. You can also configure

• audiences
• triggers
• tags
• labels that apply to the entire message

​

Step 2: Create the Message Content

You have fields for the message header, message body, an image, and a deeplink url. The icons beneath the Deeplink field allow you to

• connect a CMS feed
• connect a dataset
• add a button
• send a test message
• add image alternates

Write a message to start things off. Think about the components of your message and how you might rewrite the message with different value propositions, offerings, etc. To create a message component, simply highlight the text. Choose the kind of message component from the dropdown.

• See here for a guide on creating custom message components

For each component, create alternates. Give each alternate a label. Take a minute to review all the possible alternates. Make changes if needed and click Next once you are ready.

​

Step 3: Schedule and Review

Choose your preferred scheduling heuristic.

• Delegate to agents: Your agents determine the ideal variant and time for each user.
• Automated scheduling with guardrails: Specify certain days of the week, specific calendar days, or hours of the day that agents can operate within.
• One-at-a-time message scheduling: Send to everyone at once, bypassing the agent.

One last check. Some things to look for:

• Is the audience correct?
• Should the message operate within a specific time range?
• Do the alternates read correctly?
