HTTP Notification Protocol
--------------------------
This describes the format used by "HTTP" pushers to send notifications of
events.
Notifications are sent as HTTP POST requests to the URL configured when the
pusher is created, but Matrix strongly recommends that the path should be::
/_matrix/push/v1/notify
The body of the POST request is a JSON dictionary. The format
is as follows::
{
"notification": {
"id": "$3957tyerfgewrf384",
"room_id": "!slw48wfj34rtnrf:example.com",
"type": "m.room.message",
"sender": "@exampleuser:matrix.org",
"sender_display_name": "Major Tom",
"room_name": "Mission Control",
"room_alias": "#exampleroom:matrix.org",
"prio": "high",
"content": {
"msgtype": "m.text",
"body": "I'm floating in a most peculiar way."
}
},
"counts": {
"unread" : 2,
"missed_calls": 1
}
"devices": [
{
"app_id": "org.matrix.matrixConsole.ios",
"pushkey": "V2h5IG9uIGVhcnRoIGRpZCB5b3UgZGVjb2RlIHRoaXM/",
"pushkey_ts": 12345678,
"data" : {
},
"tweaks": {
"sound": "bing"
}
}
]
}
}
The contents of this dictionary are defined as follows:
id
An identifier for this notification that may be used to detect duplicate
notification requests. This is not necessarily the ID of the event that
triggered the notification.
room_id
The ID of the room in which this event occurred.
type
The type of the event as in the event's 'type' field.
sender
The sender of the event as in the corresponding event field.
sender_display_name
The current display name of the sender in the room in which the event
occurred.
room_name
The name of the room in which the event occurred.
room_alias
An alias to display for the room in which the event occurred.
prio
The priority of the notification. Acceptable values are 'high' or 'low. If
omitted, 'high' is assumed. This may be used by push gateways to deliver less
time-sensitive notifications in a way that will preserve battery power on
mobile devices.
content
The 'content' field from the event, if present. If the event had no content
field, this field is omitted.
counts
This is a dictionary of the current number of unacknowledged communications
for the recipient user. Counts whose value is zero are omitted.
unread
The number of unread messages a user has across all of the rooms they are a
member of.
missed_calls
The number of unacknowledged missed calls a user has across all rooms of
which they are a member.
device
This is an array of devices that the notification should be sent to.
app_id
The app_id given when the pusher was created.
pushkey
The pushkey given when the pusher was created.
pushkey_ts
The unix timestamp (in seconds) when the pushkey was last updated.
data
A dictionary of additional pusher-specific data. For 'http' pushers, this is
the data dictionary passed in at pusher creation minus the 'url' key.
tweaks
A dictionary of customisations made to the way this notification is to be
presented. These are added by push rules.
sound
Sets the sound file that should be played. 'default' means that a default
sound should be played.
And additional key is defined but only present on member events:
user_is_target
This is true if the user receiving the notification is the subject of a member
event (i.e. the state_key of the member event is equal to the user's Matrix
ID).
The recipient of an HTTP notification should respond with an HTTP 2xx response
when the notification has been processed. If the endpoint returns an HTTP error
code, the Home Server should retry for a reasonable amount of time with a
reasonable back-off scheme.
The endpoint should return a JSON dictionary as follows::
{
"rejected": [ "V2h5IG9uIGVhcnRoIGRpZCB5b3UgZGVjb2RlIHRoaXM/" ]
}
Whose keys are:
rejected
A list of all pushkeys given in the notification request that are not valid.
These could have been rejected by an upstream gateway because they have
expired or have never been valid. Home Servers must cease sending notification
requests for these pushkeys and remove the associated pushers. It may not
necessarily be the notification in the request that failed: it could be that
a previous notification to the same pushkey failed.
Push: Recommendations for APNS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For sending APNS notifications, the exact format is flexible and up to the
client app and its push gateway to agree on (since APNS requires that the sender
have a private key owned by the app developer, each app must have its own push
gateway). However, Matrix strongly recommends:
* That the APNS token be base64 encoded and used as the pushkey.
* That a different app_id be used for apps on the production and sandbox
APS environments.
* That APNS push gateways do not attempt to wait for errors from the APNS
gateway before returning and instead to store failures and return
'rejected' responses next time that pushkey is used.
