Query Parameters
store integer

This parameter overrides the default account configuration on message saving. 1 to save, 0 not to save.

auth string

String which is either the auth key (Access Manager legacy) or a valid token (Access Manager) used to authorize the operation if access control is enabled.

Example: myAuthKey

meta string

JSON with additional information. Contains additional information about the message, which can be used for stream filtering. Value must be a JSON stringified and URI encoded string.

Example (meta sample): %7B%22cool%22%3A%22meta%22%7D

uuid string

A UTF-8 encoded string of up to 92 characters used to identify the client.

Example: myUniqueUserId

ttl number

Set a per-message time-to-live in Message Persistence.

This parameter accepts both integer and floating-point numbers.

For Integer values:

  • If store = 1, and ttl = 0, the message is stored with your subscribe key’s configured TTL.
  • If store = 1, and ttl = X (X is an Integer value), the message is stored with an expiry time of X hours unless you have message retention set to Unlimited on your keyset configuration in the Admin Portal.
  • If store = 0, the ttl parameter is ignored.
  • If ttl is not specified, expiration of the message defaults back to the expiry value of the subscribe key.

For Float values:

  • If store = 1, and ttl <= 0, the message is stored with your subscribe key's configured TTL.
  • If store = 1, and ttl >= your subscribe key's configured TTL, the message is stored with your subscribe key's configured TTL.
  • If store = 1, and ttl = X (X is a Float value), the message is stored with an expiry time of X hours (e.g., 0.5 = 30 minutes) unless you have message retention set to Unlimited on your keyset configuration in the Admin Portal.
  • If store = 0, the ttl parameter is ignored.
  • If ttl is not specified, expiration of the message defaults back to the expiry value of the subscribe key.

Example: 0.5

signature string

Signature used to verify that the request was signed with the secret key associated with the subscribe key.

If Access Manager is enabled, either a valid authorization token or a signature are required. Check Access Manager documentation for details on how to compute the signature.

timestamp integer

Unix epoch timestamp used as a nonce for signature computation. Must have no more than ± 60 seconds offset from NTP.

Required if the signature parameter is supplied.

custom_message_type string

Possible values: 3 ≤ length ≤ 50

User-specified message type string - limited by 3-50 case-sensitive alphanumeric characters with only - and _ special characters allowed.
