Custom Action Push

By default, tap on a push message opens the app. But there are several options to customize actions performed after a user taps a push. Open a URL in the user's browser, take users directly to specific app pages, or catch their attention with rich content.
To create a Custom Action push, go to the Action tab of the Send Push section in your Pushwoosh Control Panel.
URL
Here, you can add a link to be opened in a browser after a user taps a push notification. Choose the URL option on the Action tab and insert URL in the corresponding field.
You can choose the URL shortener from the drop-down to the right of the URL field or use no shortener for the link attached. Please note that push notification payload size is limited, so consider creating short URLs not to exceed the limit.
Google URL Shortener is disabled as of March 30, 2019. The only shortener available currently is bit.ly. 
Rich Media
Rich Media is a custom rich content page that opens in a web view of the app after a user taps a push. You can attach images, videos, CTAs, or other media content to your push message, making it more eye-catching and interactive. To learn more about Rich Media, please refer to the guide.

With Deep Links, you can take users directly to a new app content, promo pages, special offers, etc. To add a Deep Link, go to the Deep Links section of the corresponding app in your Pushwoosh Control Panel. Once you have a Deep Link created, you can select it from the drop-down on the Action tab. To learn more about Deep Linking, see the guide.
