Mobile apps contact information management API

Mobile Apps Contact Information Management API

Push device registration (pushRegistrationId) is one of the ways to contact a specific person. One person can have one or more push devices. A single push device always belongs to one person. pushRegistrationID of a device is a unique identifier for all people.

The push device data is mostly managed by the mobile SDKs for Android (opens in a new tab)iOS (opens in a new tab)Cordova (opens in a new tab), and React Native (opens in a new tab). Some device data is gathered by the SDK automatically, such as the application version or device model. Such data is marked as read-only in the model below.

There are also other types of data such as Primary flag or Additional data attributes which can be managed both through the SDK and via HTTP APIs.

With Mobile Apps contact information management API, you can:

  • Get push device registration
  • Update push device registration
  • Personalize
  • Depersonalize
NOTE

The APPLICATION CODE should be provided for each HTTP request via the AppCode header. You can find a specific application code in the Create Mobile Application Profile section.

Personalize

Each person can have a phone number, email, or external ID. These fields are unique identifiers of a person on the Infobip platform and provide the capability to personalize (opens in a new tab) any push device registration with a person profile. The platform provides data grouping functions based on these parameters, meaning devices personalized with the same phone number or/and email will be collected under a single person.

The following query parameters are supported:
