Credential Resource
We are no longer allowing customers to onboard to Notify. We intend to deprecate the Notify product on October 23, 2023. Learn more in our Notify API End of Life Notice. We prepared this Transition Guide to assist in supporting your push notification use cases.
The Credential resource stores the credentials to use with a notification Binding. Credentials can be stored for APNS and FCM binding types.
Credential properties are specific to the binding type and provided by the vendor that supports it. Learn more about vendor-specific credentials at:
