Publish content
To publish content on your social media accounts or send a push notification to your subscribed users, either go to your Feed and click on New Post, or use the “Posts” menu and create it from there. Select all the accounts where you want to post your content, write your post and get an instant preview of how it will look when published.
If you select the push notifications, you’ll get some additional fields on the form that will allow you to complete the push notifications configuration and choose your segment between all your subscribed users. You can also send push notifications via the Visitors menu, as explained in the previous paragraph.
Enable push notifications on your website
The push notifications system uses a Firebase account, configured by default. This feature allows you to send push notifications to your website’s visitors after they subscribed to it. To enable push notifications on your website, go to the Website application Settings, and configure the notifications permission request.
Once it’s done, a popup will appear to your website’s visitors, asking them to allow push notifications. As soon as they subscribe to it, you can start sending them push notifications through the Visitors menu. You can either send it individually or target a bigger segment by selecting multiple visitors in the list view (e.g. all the visitors that visited your Homepage).
Interact with your online visitors
You can monitor your online visits via the Visitors menu. You’ll see every visitors that landed on one of your tracked pages (you can configure your tracked pages in the Website application), online or offline. Your online visitors will be authenticated if they’re linked to a lead or an existing partner. You will be able to contact them with an email, a message sms, a push notification (if they have subscribed to it), or even send them a live chat request that they will receive on their next move on one of your tracked pages (if you installed the Live Chat application).
Configure your own Facebook and Twitter developer accounts
By default, the Social application is already configured with a Facebook and Twitter developer accounts but you can use your own if necessary. Activate the developer mode, go to Configuration > Settings and enter your own API keys.
Configure your own Firebase API
By default, a Firebase project is running on your database so there’s no need to configure it. If you have multiple websites, every website will be linked to a different Firebase project. If you need to configure your own Firebase project, please go to
Web Push Notifications section.
