Notification body text.
This is the main notification content, displayed below the notification title. The notification will expand to fit the length of this text. Markdown may be used in the body text to control how it is styled when rendered. With the exception of links and code blocks, all basic syntax as documented here is supported.
A list of buttons to display below the notification text.
Notifications support up to four buttons. Attempting to add more than four will result in the notification being rejected by the service.
Describes the context of this notification. Allows users to control different notification types that are raised by an application.
This string is not displayed on the notification itself, but should be user-readable. It will be displayed in
the Notification Center preferences section, and any string passed as a category should make sense when
displayed in that context.
Event categories should list all the different types of notifications raised by your app. As a general guide, if a user may want to have different preferences for some subset of notifications created by your app, then applications should ensure that those notifications have a distinct category.
For example - given a calendar app, notification categories could be:
'Upcoming Events': Notification that an event is about to start'Event Start': Notification raised when event starts, expiring at the event end time'Event Modified': When an event is modified'Event Cancelled': When an event is cancelled'Event Response': An attendee has responded to an event invitation that you created'Daily Agenda': A notification sent each morning with event remindersNOTE: The user-facing UI that a user would use to manage their preferences is still in progress. This property has been added in advance of this UI being released, to ensure future compatibility.
Any custom context data associated with the notification.
The timestamp shown on the notification. If omitted, the current date/time will be used.
This is presentational only - a future date will not incur a scheduling action.
The expiry date and time of the notification. If specified, the notification will be removed at this time, or as soon as possible after. If not specified, the notification will never expire, and will persist until it is closed.
URL of the icon to be displayed in the notification.
A unique identifier for the notification.
If not provided at time of creation, one will be generated for you and returned as part of the create method.
Add a semantic visual indicator to a notification. This should not be treated as a priority.
For example - an indicator could be used to:
'failure': Indicate a failure has occurred from an action the user has taken.'warning': Warn a user that they have a limited amount of time to buy.'success': An item has been successfully ordered.An action result to be passed back to the application inside the
notification-action event fired when the notification is closed.
This action will be raised regardless of how the notification is closed. This can be from user interaction
(until future revisions allow default click behaviour to be overriden, this will be any click anywhere within
the notification), the notification expiring, or from the notification being programmaticially removed, such as
a call to clear.
See Actions for more details on notification actions, and receiving action events from notifications.
An action result to be passed back to the application inside the
notification-action event fired when the notification the expires.
If expires is specified for the notification, this action will be raised when the notification expires. If
expires is not specified for the notification, this action will never be raised. Note that if an onClose
action result is also specified, both actions will be raised if and when the notification expires.
See Actions for more details on notification actions, and receiving action events from notifications.
An action result to be passed back to the application inside the
notification-action event fired when the notification is clicked.
This action will only be raised on clicks to the notification body. Interactions with buttons (both application-defined buttons, and the default 'X' close button) will not trigger a select action.
See Actions for more details on notification actions, and receiving action events from notifications.
