Test your integration

Once everything’s set up, check whether it works as supposed to. There are several ways to test sending messages to your app or website subscribers.

Preview your push notification on a test device

Test devices are intended to preview how push notifications look on a device before sending them to the app users. To test out your push notifications, register your device (with your app installed) as a Test Device, and then use the Test push notification button in the Push Preset form.

Test a journey with a test segment

To accurately test a journey, you must first create a test Segment that includes users meeting specific conditions.

Steps to test a journey:

  1. Create a Segment by either:
  • Uploading a CSV file with the necessary conditions. Learn more
  • Asigning a unique Tag value to your test devices by calling the /setTags API method. Then, create a segment using this Tag value.
  1. Navigate to Campaigns → Create Campaign → Build a journey from scratch or use one of the pre-built customer journey templates.
  2. Add the Audience-based entry element to the canvas and select the Segment you created.
  3. Add a message element such as push, SMS, or email.
  4. Select content from previously created content or create custom content.
  5. Configure the remaining journey elements as needed.
  6. Click Launch Campaign to start the test.
