Target Named User

I am trying to send a push to a specific named user.  I am getting a 400 error with message "empty selector".

 

Here is request:

{ "notification": { "alert": "View your quotation and accept the prices or request a new price.", "ios": { "title":"Your Quote is Ready", "extra":{ "quoteId":"22660" } }, "android":{ "title":"Your Quote is Ready", "extra":{ "quoteId":"22660" } } }, "audience":{ "named_user_id":"test" }, "device_types":"all"}

I simplified it to this for testing purposes (and got the same response):
{ "notification":{ "alert": "View your quotation and accept the prices or request a new price."}, "audience":{ "named_user_id":"test" }, "device_types":"all" }

 

Here is response:

{"ok":false,"error":"Could not parse request body.","error_code":40214,"details":{"error":"Empty selector."},"operation_id":"5c3361a8-eed6-4b2f-a255-cf6a64522347"}

Didn't find what you were looking for?

    Hi Jeff,

    You will want to format your payload like this:

    {
  "notification": {
    "alert": "View your quotation and accept the prices or request a new price."
  },
  "audience": {
    "named_user": "test"
  },
  "device_types": [
    "ios",
    "android"
  ]
}

    The audience selector for Named Users is named_user, not named_user_id, which is why it thought the audience selector was empty. You will also need to explicitly set the device_types because Named Users are not supported on every platform.

    Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

    Thank you,
