What is BLOX Notifier?
BLOX Notifier is a messaging platform that streamlines the management and delivery of news and other content to multiple platforms at once within one application. When the latest News story breaks, instead of posting the content separately across different applications or platforms, BLOX Notifier completes the publishing workflow.
Effortless cross-platform content delivery
Each member of your audience is unique, with their own style of consuming news and entertainment, so it's important to be where they are and to utilize a multi-faceted approach with digital content delivery.
Managing content across platforms (or targets) can be time-intensive, but Notifier completely automates this process through smart Automatic Notification Rules. BLOX Notifier can manage content delivery for BLOX applications, Facebook and Twitter.
Interface Overview
The BLOX Notifier interface consists of three panels:
Search Terms: This panel contains a number of filters that can be set to help locate push notifications that have been previously created.
Search Results: This panel is where push notifications that have either been sent or scheduled to be sent will be displayed.
Application Settings: This panel consists of a number of panels that contain settings and options for creating new push notification channels and establishing an API link between BLOX CMS and Facebook and Twitter for pushing BLOX content to social media.
