Testing from command line

If you’d like to test in-app and push notifications via the command-line, you can send a single notification through the terminal via cURL and the messaging API. You will need to replace the following fields with the correct values for your test case:

• YOUR_API_KEY - available on the Developer Console
• YOUR_EXTERNAL_USER_ID - available on the User Profile Search page
• YOUR_KEY1 (optional)
• YOUR_VALUE1 (optional)

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer " -d '{
  "external_user_ids":["YOUR_EXTERNAL_USER_ID"],
  "messages": {
    "android_push": {
      "title":"Test push title",
      "alert":"Test push",
      "extra":{
        "YOUR_KEY1":"YOUR_VALUE1"
      }
    }
  }
}' https://rest.iad-01.braze.com/messages/send

This example uses the US-01 instance. If you are not on this instance, replace the US-01 endpoint with your endpoint.
