Push pull notifications

Our automated service can send you notifications about new messages from the EMCS. This functionality will send you a notification each time there is a new message for you to read.

This means that your:

  • software will not have to poll for updated information
  • requests are unlikely to be rate limited because they’ll not be as frequent
  • network usage will also go down because you’ll not need to poll

Notification content:

  • push notifications will not include the message but a field called messageUri
  • this will contain the relative path to the full XML message
  • use the messageUri to download the XML message from the EMCS API

For information on how to configure and test this functionality, read the EMCS API testing guide.
