App Center Push Notifications rate limits


I have implemented App Center Push notifications in my Xamarin forms app, with several messaging strategies.

  1. send same message to list of users.

Note The App Center Push to User feature limits notifications to 100 users and up to a maximum of 1,000 target devices.

In my logic I break the messages into 100 user blocks.

  1. send unique message to each user (1 user/push).

My question is there a rate limit on how many times I can hit API per minute, per hour etc?

When sending the individual custom messages and group messages, if i need to send to 1000 users, that's 1000 or 10 API hits.

Or did I miss a way to do this in documentation?


Solution

  • App Center is retiring Push Notifications. Means this is no longer a concern and different path will have to be taken.
