This is our biggest release yet, with over 30 contributors and 130 Pull requests with awaited features such as Push, Chat, Subscriber Preference API, API Reference documentation, and more... Let's dive in!

Subscriber Preferences API

From this release, your application notification subscriber will be able to configure their preferences from within the notification center or directly via our API.

By default, all existing templates prior to 0.7.0 will be marked as critical and will be excluded from the preference list. To add them, go to the template editor page and un-mark the critical template from the preference defaults.

New templates created after this release will be added to the preference list, and the user can select from the available channels what to not receive and over which channel.

To read more about Subscriber Preference visit the documentation.

Push notifications with FCM

Excited to share that from now it's possible to send push notifications to mobile devices using FCM. This feature was entirely built by our amazing community members and specifically by @raikasdev 💖.
APNS and other providers' support will be landed in the next release. Looking for other push providers? Create a GitHub issue or contribute directly.

To send over the push channel, deviceTokens should be added to the specified subscribers. To read more about it visit the documentation on subscriber credentials and our FCM guide.

Chat Apps (Slack and Discord)

One of our requested features was to send notifications with chat applications such as Slack and Discord. And now you can! Chat apps could be directly configured from the template editor and delivered using the webhook_url mechanism of the chat providers.

To read more about it, visit our guide.

API Reference documentation

With so many requests by the community members, we just had to do something about it ;) With help from @andrewgolovanov and the entire pixel point team, we are honored to present the first version of our API reference.
