HTML Push Notifications

In Braze SDK version 3.1.1, HTML can be sent to a device to render multicolor text in push notifications.

Multicolor push example

The above example is rendered with the following HTML:

1

<p><span style="color: #99cc00;">M</span>u<span style="color: #008080;">lti</span>Colo<span style="color: #ff6600;">r</span> <span style="color: #000080;">P</span><span style="color: #00ccff;">u</span><span style="color: #ff0000;">s</span><span style="color: #808080;">h</span></p>

1

<p><em>test</em> <span style="text-decoration: underline; background-color: #ff6600;"><strong>message</strong></span></p>

Android OS limits what HTML elements/tags are valid in push notifications. For example, marquee is not allowed.

Implementation

In your braze.xml:

1

<bool translatable="false" name="com_appboy_push_notification_html_rendering_enabled">true</bool>

Or in your AppboyConfig:

AppboyConfig appboyConfig = new AppboyConfig.Builder()
  .setPushHtmlRenderingEnabled(true)
  .build();
Appboy.configure(this, appboyConfig);

val appboyConfig = AppboyConfig.Builder()
    .setPushHtmlRenderingEnabled(true)
    .build()
Appboy.configure(this, appboyConfig)
