Functionalities of Push notifications in Kony 8

hello team,

I wanted an overview of the in-app notification functionality using Kony 8

  • What kind of features are available?
  • Can we create different templates of notifications – floating top of screen, full page, bottom of screen, alert
  • Can we include rich text – images, videos, external links
  • What categories of in-app notifications are available
    • Automated
    • Scheduled
    • Broadcast
    • Segmented – based on user information/user action
    • Trigger based
  • For sending out notifications typically we use attributes for users and events – these can be configured based on requirement. Do we have the same capability available for Kony?
  • Can we include CTA(s) in the notifications? If yes, can these be deep-linked?
  • Can we do A/B testing
  • What kind of reporting will we be getting from Kony?

-thanks

Currently Inapp notifications are not supported in the engagement platform of Kony. We are considering this feature for the next release however this has not been finalized yet.

thanks for the update, when is the plan for next release ?​

The next release is around mid Jan of next year. I would like to re-iterate that the scope for this release is not locked in yet. Though in-app notifications are being considered, we do not know for sure if this will make it to the next release yet.

Also I believe there have been discussions to move SBI to the latest version of the product on the cloud? Can you please let us know where we are with this ? It might be a good idea to consider this now if not already done.

that means , you guys are not supporting in-app notifications in Kony 8 and will be planning to roll out in Jan 2019 ? yes we will be starting to migrate to Kony 8 ​soon.
