AnnA Active Notification (C#/.NET)

AnnA Active Notification is a resource that makes possible for you to send notifications through WhatsApp to a batch of phone numbers.

Using AnnaTemplate class

This class will provide you a simple way to send active notifications to your clients

Examples:

  var template = new AnnaTemplate("YOUR_ANNA_ENVIRONMENT_BASE_URL");
  template.CompanyHash = "YOURCOMPANYHASH";
  template.EncryptionKey = "YOUR_TEMPLATES_ENCRYPTION_KEY";
  template.DecryptionKey = "YOUR_TEMPLATES_DECRYPTION_KEY";
  template.TemplateName = "TEMPLATE_NAME";
  template.TemplateNamespace = "TEMPLATE_NAMESPACE";
  template.Notifications = new List<AnnaNotification>(); // List of notification objects that contains PhoneList, PropKeys and PropParms

  var template = new AnnaTemplate("YOUR_ANNA_ENVIRONMENT_BASE_URL", new AnnaTemplateConfig
  {
      CompanyHash = "YOURCOMPANYHASH",
      EncryptionKey = "YOUR_TEMPLATES_ENCRYPTION_KEY",
      DecryptionKey = "YOUR_TEMPLATES_DECRYPTION_KEY",
      TemplateName = "TEMPLATE_NAME",
      TemplateNamespace = "TEMPLATE_NAMESPACE",
      Notifications = new List<AnnaNotification>() // List of notification objects that contains PhoneList, PropKeys and PropParms
  });

Send notifications

What you will need:

Base URL of your AnnA environment
Company hash
Encryption and decryption key
Template name
Template namespace
List of phone numbers

Optionally you can set:

A media URL to send media files (IMAGE, VIDEO or DOCUMENT)
List with the values of variables from the template if your template has any
List with parameters for the template if your template has any
Delivery date when you want or need to schedule the notification
Reference to any notes about this notification

  // Create notification
  var notification = new AnnaNotification
  {
      PhoneList = new List<string> { "5511111111111", "5522222222222" }, // List of phonenumbers
      MediaUrl = "https://example.com/image.png", // Set this property if you want to send media files (IMAGE, VIDEO or DOCUMENT)
      PropKeys = new List<string> { "Variable 1" }, // List with the values of variables from the template
      PropParms = new List<PropParm>
      {
          new PropParm { Alias = "parm1", Value = "value1" },
          new PropParm { Alias = "parm2", Value = "value2" }
      },
      DeliveryDate = new DateTime(2023, 11, 02, 13, 20, 0), // Set this property if you want to schedule the notification
      Reference = "Any description you want (max 100 characters)"
  };

  // Add notification to the list
  var notificationsList = new List<AnnaNotification> { notification };

  // Create the template, set the configurations and notifications list
  // Example of AnnA environment base URL: https://learning.anna.center
  var template = new AnnaTemplate("YOUR_ANNA_ENVIRONMENT_BASE_URL", new AnnaTemplateConfig
  {
      CompanyHash = "YOURCOMPANYHASH",
      EncryptionKey = "YOUR_TEMPLATES_ENCRYPTION_KEY",
      DecryptionKey = "YOUR_TEMPLATES_DECRYPTION_KEY",
      TemplateName = "TEMPLATE_NAME",
      TemplateNamespace = "TEMPLATE_NAMESPACE",
      ReturnMode = TemplateReturnMode.DEFAULT, // Change to RESUME if you want information about the request instead of a phonelist when sending the notifications
      Notifications = notificationsList
  });

  string response = template.SendNotifications(); // Send the notifications and returns a JSON

Get notification data

When sending notifications with ReturnMode as RESUME, the response will be a RequestID that you can use to get the notification data.

This service will return information about the number of notifications sent, processed and processing.

What you will need:

Base URL of your AnnA environment
Company hash
Encryption and decryption key
RequestID

  // Create and configure AnnA Template
  // Example of AnnA environment base URL: https://learning.anna.center
  var template = new AnnaTemplate("YOUR_ANNA_ENVIRONMENT_BASE_URL", new AnnaTemplateConfig
  {
      CompanyHash = "YOURCOMPANYHASH",
      EncryptionKey = "YOUR_TEMPLATES_ENCRYPTION_KEY",
      DecryptionKey = "YOUR_TEMPLATES_DECRYPTION_KEY"
  });

  int requestId = 65; // RequestId from SendNotifications() reponse when ReturnMode is set to "RESUME"
  string response = template.GetNotificationData(requestId); // JSON response with the notification data

GetNotificationData Response

The response will be a JSON with the following structure:
