Sending test of mobile push
To test your mobile push, you must first save it using the "Save" button at the top of the page. Once you have saved your campaign, you can proceed with testing.
Testing Options
You can choose to test your mobile push campaign in several ways:
- Send a test notification to yourself or other users to verify the correct appearance of images and text.
- Test with customer attributes to ensure that personalized content is properly populated based on the profile data.
- Check embedded links to ensure they function as expected.
To start testing, you need to fill in the following:

For instance, you can check how personalized elements like names or default values will appear when an attribute is present or missing (e.g., Remember: each customer profile has a unique ID, which you can find in the URL on the customer profile detail page. |

- There is no need to use a segment when sending test notifications. Enter the registration token and a profile ID in the appropriate fields to see how the message will look to that profile.
