How to test the Inbox integration?

This guide explains how to verify that your Inbox integration works as expected after implementing a notification center in your app.

The Inbox feature allows you to retrieve and display past push notifications sent to a device or user ID. This feature enables you to create a notification center in your app, where users can find previously received messages.

Test your integration using a push campaign

To test your Inbox integration, send a standard push campaign from the dashboard. Inbox only stores push notifications sent through campaigns.

To send a test campaign:

1

Open the Campaigns tab on the dashboard and click New Campaign - Push Message.

2

Create a push campaign that targets the appropriate environment:

• If your app is not live on the store or you use a dedicated test app, target All users.

• If your app is live and no test app is available, create an Audience with your test devices and target only this audience.

Notifications sent from the Debug tool or using the Send a test button are not stored in Inbox.
