Sending Apple Silent Push Notification using Twilio


How to set it using twilio notify api SDK for c#?

According to Apple documentation in order to send Silent Push Notification I need to set 3 things:

payload: { "aps": "content-available": 1 } }
apns-push-type: background
apns-priority: 5

I am trying to achieve it using NotificationResource in which I can set payload using apnand apns-priority using priority to low, but I can't find a way to set apns-push-type.

How can I set it up?

    Good news, if you set the aps payload to

    { "aps": "content-available": 1 }
    

    then Twilio Notify will automatically add the apns-push-type: background to the request to Apple.

    I don't believe this is documented anywhere, but I am trying to get that updated.
