Getting started with service

The Notifications REST API is platform and programming-language independent; therefore, your service can be developed using your preferred environment and tools.

The following table summarizes the three REST API calls used to send notifications:

a) Setup

Authentication

SSL + HTTP Digest

Login: Service ID

Password: Service Secret

Addressing

/nnapi/1.0/nid/{Notification ID}

/nnapi/1.0/bulk/nid

/nnapi/1.0/publish

Method

POST, PUT [binary data]

b) HTTP request connection

Your service should use a persistent TCP/TLS connection between the HTTP requests. This is particularly important in the production environment, where the connection must be persistent.
