Post-delivery dynamic control of notifications in a push notification life-cycle

Abstract:

A computer-implemented method for dynamically controlling push notifications post-delivery is provided. The method includes obtaining, by a server computer, a push notification and rules associated with the push notification. The rules specify a notification strategy to be implemented by a client device in presenting the push notification. The method also includes encoding, by the server computer, the rules in metadata. The method also includes transmitting, by the server computer, the push notification and the metadata to the client device, wherein the client device is configured to present the push notification according to the rules encoded in the metadata.
