Scheduling and testing

When the notification goes out is determined by the campaign Type on the Overview tab. Below the type switch, a schedule configuration block appears, specific to each type.

«Settings» block — type switch and schedule

One-time send

The One-time type — the broadcast goes out once.

  • Send at — the send date and time. If the field is empty, the broadcast goes out right after you click Send now.
  • Send now — launches the broadcast immediately (saving the campaign first).
  • By subscriber's time — if enabled, every subscriber gets the push at the specified hour in their own local time. Disabled — everyone receives it simultaneously in UTC.

Regular send

The Regular type — the broadcast goes out on a schedule (cron). In the schedules block:

  • Add one or more schedule rows. A human-language explanation and error highlighting are shown under each row.
  • AI helper in the row: describe the schedule in words (for example «Every Friday at 18:00»), and the system will pick a correct expression.
Caution

For a regular campaign, keep the Skip already sent option enabled — otherwise every schedule trigger will resend the push to those who already received it.

Event-based send

The By event type — the push goes to a subscriber after a set delay following an event. In the Event triggers block, add one or more triggers; each has:

  • EventRegistration, Deposit, or Push subscription.
  • Delay — a number and a unit: min, hr, or days.
  • By subscriber's time — when the unit is «days», you can set the delivery hour (HH:MM) in the subscriber's local timezone. For minutes and hours, the delay is counted in UTC from the moment of the event.

Event checks and sending run once a minute.

Launch

After configuring the schedule, click Save, then in the header:

  • Send — for a one-time campaign.
  • Activate — for a regular or event-based one (the pushes go out on the schedule, not to everyone at once).
Test send

There is no separate «test send» button in the interface. The closest way to check a one-time broadcast immediately is Send now.
