Update scheduled API-triggered Canvases
Use this endpoint to update scheduled API-triggered Canvases that were created in the dashboard.
This allows you to decide what action should trigger the message to be sent. You can pass in trigger_properties
that will be templated into the message itself.
Note that to send messages with this endpoint, you must have a Canvas ID, created when you build a Canvas.
Any schedule will completely overwrite the one that you provided in the create schedule request or in previous update schedule requests.
- For example, if you originally provide
"schedule" : {"time" : "2015-02-20T13:14:47", "in_local_time" : true}
and then in your update you provide"schedule" : {"time" : "2015-02-20T14:14:47"}
, your message will now be sent at the provided time in UTC, not in the user’s local time. - Scheduled triggers that are updated very close to or during the time they were supposed to be sent will be updated with best efforts, so last-second changes could be applied to all, some, or none of your targeted users.
Prerequisites
To use this endpoint, you’ll need an API key with the canvas.trigger.schedule.update
permission.
