Push Devices

LAST EDIT Nov 04 2024

Once your app has enabled the push notifications, you can use the APIs to register user devices such as iPhones and Android phones.

Each chat user has a limit of 25 unique devices. Once this limit is reached, the oldest device will be removed and replaced by the new device.

Register a Device

Registering a device associates it with a user and tells the push provider to send new message notifications to the device.

Register the user's device for remote push notifications once your user is successfully connected to Chat.
Multi-bundle configurations require that you specify a push_provider_name when registering a device that corresponds to the name of the push configuration that you've set up in the dashboard or via the API.

Unregister a Device

Unregistering a device removes the device from the user and stops further new message notifications.
