Web Push Notifications Integration Validation

Web Push Notifications Integration validation is performed manually to verify if the Push notifications are working.

Validation Procedure

The validation procedure contains the following steps

  1. Push Token Generation
  2. Push notification received on the device
  3. Notification Redirection
  4. Notification Statistics

Push Token Generation

  1. On your profile page, the Web push icon has to be green.download__17_.png
  2. You can also check this by installing the MoEngage extension on your browser (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/moengage-sdk/dhggnkfnnoebbfofpimfehcklnekmbgi)download__18_.png

Push notification received on the device

  1. Create a general Push campaign on the Dashboard for your device
  2. Test the notification from the test option at the 3rd stage of creation.
  3. If you get a successful response create the campaign. If failed, check for the failure reasons.download__19_.png

Notification Redirection

  1. Provide the redirection URL while creating the campaign. And once the message is received click on it and check if it is redirecting you to the URLdownload__20_.png

Notification Statistics

  • Once the campaign is sent out, the campaign stats should show the impressions and clicks.download__21_.png

Validation Success Criteria

  1. Push token has to be generated for the users
  2. Notification should be displayed correctly
  3. The redirection should work as expected
  4. The Impressions and clicks have to be captured.

Troubleshooting 

  1. If tokens are not generated correctly, the reachable user base will be less than the actual users. For more information about fixing token-related issue, refer to Configuring Web Push Settings.

  2. Incorrect Redirection will lead to confusion/miss in opportunities.

  3. If the clicks and impressions are not recorded, we cannot understand the impact of the campaign.
    For more information about fixing impressions and click-tracking-related issue, refer to Configuring Web Push Settings.

MoEngage recommends download and installs the Chrome Extension for integration validation.
