Configuring Action Buttons
When creating mobile push notifications, you can add several action buttons for greater interactivity. When a receiver touches the screen for an extended period of time (long pressing), it displays the actions assigned to your push notification.
Adding Action Buttons
- In your account, select Messages → Messages → Mobile Push.
- Create a new mobile push notification or edit an existing one.
- In the
Buttonssection, enter all the parameters as shown below.
- Click
+ Add Buttonif you want to add more buttons.
Note
You must enter the values in Action ID and Text for this button to work correctly. You have to use different Action IDs when you add multiple buttons.
| Parameter | Notes |
|---|---|
| Action ID | A unique identifier for the button action. |
| Text | The text that a button displays. |
| iOS icon path | The icon associated with the action. Available in iOS 15 and later. Enter the name of an image located in your app’s bundle, preferably in an asset catalog. |
| Launch URL | An URL or a deeplink that opens when the notification is selected. |
| Custom data | Additional parameters associated with the button in JSON format. |
To learn more about notification action icons, see Apple documentation.
Handling the Action Button Click Events
When an action button is selected, the Reteno SDK fires a notification click handler Reteno.userNotificationService.notificationActionHandler. This click handler contains the RetenoUserNotificationAction actionId, customData and the link that you set when creating the Action Buttons.
Reteno.userNotificationService.notificationActionHandler = { userInfo, action in
let actionId = action.actionId
let customData = action.customData
let actionLink = action.link
}
