Onboard a Subscriber and Send Their First Notification

Onboard a Subscriber and Send Their First Notification

Create a subscriber then trigger and inspect their first notification.

1. Create the subscriber. subscriberId is required; if the subscriber already exists it is updated rather than duplicated.
2. Trigger the named workflow addressed to the newly created subscriber, passing the custom payload. Novu returns a transactionId for the trigger.
3. List notification events for the environment filtered to the new subscriber, returning the most recent triggered event so its id can be resolved for a detailed lookup.
4. Retrieve the full event detail (execution logs, status, generated messages) for the notification produced by the trigger.

What you'll need to have ready

• subscriberId: The external identifier of the subscriber (your system's user id).
• email: Email address of the subscriber.
• firstName: First name of the subscriber.
• lastName: Last name of the subscriber.
• workflowId: The trigger identifier of the workflow to send.
• payload: Custom payload object used to render the workflow.
