Overview

The Create Campaign API lets you send messages to your users. You can specify the audience for your message in two ways. The first option is to target people based on user events and properties. The second option is to target people based on their user ids.

For example, you can use this API to send a price drop alert as a push notification to users who have viewed a certain product in the past week. If you have thousands of products and hundreds of thousands of users, this API lets you create a scalable and targeted way to notify your users of price drop alerts.

For more information on API request limit, refer to API Request Limit.

Note
Currently, AMP Email campaigns cannot be created using Create Campaign API.
