Defining a News Feed category

Instances of the Braze News Feed can be configured to only receive cards from a certain category. This allows for the effective integration of multiple News Feed streams within a single application. For more information on this feature, visit our News Feed best practices.

News Feed categories can be defined by calling one of the following methods as you load the News Feed:

• OBJECTIVE-C
• swift

[newsFeed setCategories:ABKCardCategoryAll];
[newsFeed setCategories:ABKCardCategoryAnnouncements];
[newsFeed setCategories:ABKCardCategoryAdvertising];
[newsFeed setCategories:ABKCardCategorySocial];
[newsFeed setCategories:ABKCardCategoryNews];
[newsFeed setCategories:ABKCardCategoryNoCategory];

newsFeed.categories = ABKCardCategory.all
newsFeed.categories = ABKCardCategory.announcements
newsFeed.categories = ABKCardCategory.advertising
newsFeed.categories = ABKCardCategory.social
newsFeed.categories = ABKCardCategory.news
newsFeed.categories = ABKCardCategory.noCategory

You can also populate a feed with a combination of categories as in the following example:

• OBJECTIVE-C
• swift

[newsFeed setCategories:ABKCardCategoryAnnouncements|ABKCardCategoryAdvertising];

newsFeed.categories = ABKCardCategory([.announcements, .advertising])
