Creating App Inbox Messages

To send App Inbox messages to your customers, you first need to get an authentication token and configure App Inbox for a website or mobile app.

After completing all settings, you can proceed to create App Inbox campaigns.

Creating a New Message

1. Go to Messages → Messages → App Inbox. Click the New App Inbox button.

Creating App Inbox

Main settings

Fill in the following fields:

1. Name. The system name that the recipient will not see.

2. Title. Brief information about main content message.

Name and Title

3. Text. The main content of the App Inbox. In the text formatting menu, you can work on the text styles, lists, links and check the number of symbols in your message.

Important

If you apply text styles for an app inbox message, you will receive the message in the HTML format. You will need to parse the HTML message to display it correctly in the mobile app.

4. Personalization. Use the dynamic variables to add a name, city, bonuses or any personal data available in the user profile. Click on the Personalization icon in the Text or Title field to select data.

5. Link. The URL of the page to which the recipient should go when clicking on the body of the message (place without text links). Activate the switcher if the link should be opened in a new tab.

Link

Link settings in App Inbox messages are similar to those in email. You can enable or disable URL tracking, UTM tags, and add custom tags.

To customize the link in the App Inbox, click on the gear icon in the link field (learn more about UTM tag settings).

Additional settings

Fill in the following fields:

1. Custom data. You can create App-Inbox messages using custom data in JSON format. If custom data is used in a multilingual message, it can be applied to all language versions. To do this, activate the Use custom data from the default language version for all versions switcher.

Custom data

If the switcher is disabled, different custom data can be used in each language version

Also, you can use dynamic variables to add data into the Custom data parameter: message name, first name, city, and so on. Click on the personalization icon and select the required.

2. Subscription categories. Manage subscription categories to send messages to your contacts based on their preferences.

3. Time to Live (TTL). TTL — the period after which the message will not be displayed, even if it's delivered and read. By default, it’s 1 day, but you can select other options.

Additional settings

Multilingual version (optional)

In our platform, you can create a multilingual version of any message. Click the globe icon in the top panel, specify the default language and add language versions. Fill each version with the content in the corresponding language. You can switch between versions within one template in one click.
