Thank you for choosing Cloud Notify, let's get you up and running as quickly as possible.
Click the "Sign up" button (top right), go on, it's just up there. You will require a Google account to use Cloud Notify.
Open the Cloud Notify Android app settings and click "Register". It may take a couple of seconds to link your device. Once linked your email address and device UUID will be shown.
Note: you must use the same Google account as your Cloud Notify account. Obvs 😉
Open the Device Management web app page and click "Test Notification". You will see a notification on your mobile device.
Note: the device UUID will match that shown in your device settings.
So you want to do more than send test notifications to your phone. Cloud Notify uses token/bearer authentication. So we need to create a token: open the API Keys web app page and click "Create API key". This will generate a unique token for your account. You will see the full token in a dialog box. This is the only time you will see it, so copy it and keep it safe.
Note: you can create as many API keys as you wish. In this way you can grant/revoke access for specific systems.
Send a POST request to the Cloud Nofify API. In this example we are sending a message to a single device.
curl -X POST https://cloudnotify.co.uk/api/v1/request -H
