FAQ

Questions about Send Push Notification.

What does the Send Push Notification action do in OneSignal?
Sends a push to a specified audience — user IDs, segments, or in-call filter rules. The base hook for "external event → push to mobile users matching X criteria" workflows.
What inputs does Send Push Notification require?
Required: Title, Message. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if OneSignal returns an error?
The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.
Does Send Push Notification support batch operations?
Yes. Run Send Push Notification inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles OneSignal's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
