The test will be divided into 2 parts:

  • Basic test which is monitoring the API call when an alias is created.

  • Make sure Charles ,or a sniffer tool of your choice, is configured and running on your computer.

Advanced Test procedure:

  • During this test we will create a segment for each custom field that was added to your application and for tags which your application assigns each device when it is registered,
  • Prepare a list of all custom fields that you have configured in your application code, make sure these fields were added to your application settings within Appoxee UI as seen below:

  • Create a segment for each one of your custom fields and tags, you can use the steps mention in the "Create a Segment for a Test Device" procedure (it is also possible to edit the segment each time changing the setup definitions and saving it).
    below please find an example how to setup a segment based on a custom string field. 

    • Send your device a Push notification, use the custom fields within the message content by Setting up "Custom Fields"
    • Confirm the following:
        1. The format of your custom fields are exactly the same as in your app. For example, the parameter "F_name" will be configured in the same format in the app's settings (in the dashboard) and in the app's code.
        2. You have defined the custom fields according to the correct custom field type: numeric, date, string, boolean (for tags).


Expected result:

    • Verify that Installs and Push Enabled are updated to 1.

    • The content of the Push notification when presented on your device includes the custom filed data.
