Sending push notifications to specific devices and types (Android/iOS)

Hi there,

 

We have one app surface that has both android & iOS configured, and we prefer not to split them up to different app surfaces. And I am wondering if there's a way in Campaigns and Journeys, that we can target only specific device types (iOS/Android). 

 

In test mode, I've tried entering one single ECID, and it fires a push notification to all my devices (Android/iOS). So I am wondering:

1) Is there a way to send push notifications only to a specific ECID

2) Is there a way to send push notifications only to Android or iOS devices

 

Thanks,

Hello @akwankl 

 

The only way to do this currently is by using two app surfaces.

In test mode, if ECID is being used - then the details associated with that profile would be pulled in.

 

If there are multiple tokens associated with the profile, collection management functions can be leveraged to retrieve the corresponding android / ios tokens by filtering against the platform, appId values.

Thanks @mohan_dugganab, can you help me out with this?

 

 

 

 

 

I have this in the push parameters:

 

#{ExperiencePlatform.AppNotifications.profile.pushNotificationDetails.all(currentDataPackField.platform == 'apns' and currentDataPackField.identity.id == ${externalKey}).token}

 

But it's coming back with this error:

"push channel details are invalid, payload: {\n \"push\" : {\n \"token\" : \"[abc1234567maskedtoken]\"\n }\n}"

 

It's returning the token correctly, but doesn't seem to fit the syntax required in the push action.

 

Thanks.

Hello @akwankl 

 

With collection management functions you can only filter the records with a certain key value pair. You cannot pick the collection to strip the parameter to force the push delivery to use the remaining parameters.

    Agree with @_manoj_kumar_  - best way to achieve this is to have 2 app surfaces.
