JavaScript Integration

Send push notifications from any JavaScript environment - browser, Node.js, or serverless functions. The examples use the native fetch API which works everywhere.

Browser / Basic Example

const response = await fetch('https://thenotification.app/api/sendNotification', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'app_key': 'YOUR_API_KEY',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    title: 'New Message',
    body: 'Check out this notification',
    link: 'https://example.com/page',
    image: 'https://picsum.photos/400/200'
  })
});

const result = await response.json();
console.log(result);

Node.js Example

// Using Node.js with node-fetch
import fetch from 'node-fetch';

async function sendNotification() {
  const response = await fetch('https://thenotification.app/api/sendNotification', {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      'app_key': process.env.NOTIFICATION_API_KEY,
      'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
      title: 'Server Alert',
      body: 'Your deployment was successful!'
    })
  });

  return response.json();
}

Response Handling

// Success response
{
  "success": true,
  "message": "Notification sent to 1 device(s)",
  "devices_sent": 1,
  "failed_count": 0
}

// Error response
{
  "success": false,
  "error": "Invalid app_key"
}

Tip: Store your API key in environment variables and never expose it in client-side code. For browser apps, make the API call from your backend.
