APIs and ANS
Use Appice APIs and ANS to support backend-driven notifications, callback webhooks, and enterprise integrations.
Appice InformANS · Agentic Notification System
What Appice Inform ANS is
The Agentic Notification System (ANS) is a backend-driven notification architecture described in the manual. It allows internal systems to send transactional or marketing notifications through Appice without relying on direct exposure of personal data in every operational step.
It is particularly useful when enterprise systems need a privacy-preserving bridge to user devices, channels, or campaign execution logic.
Campaign automation workflow
The manual describes two main flows:
- Internal-system initiated flow where backend systems send notification parameters through ANS to Appice.
- Panel-created campaign flow where business users create the campaign in Appice, then use the generated campaign ID inside the internal system.
sendCampaignByID
The key API described in the manual is sendCampaignByID, which sends a campaign to a list of users, emails, MSISDNs, tokens, or a segment, depending on what identifiers are provided.
In a later version of the help center, this should be split into dedicated endpoint pages with request tables, field descriptions, and sample responses.
Webhooks
Webhooks are used both for outbound gateway-triggering patterns and for inbound callback patterns. For example, an SMS provider may need Appice to call an external endpoint, while an email or messaging gateway may call back into Appice with delivery or engagement events.
Architecture and hosting note
The manual includes deployment and architecture material for on-premise-style enterprise setups, including storage, databases, load balancing, orchestration, and certificates. For the help center, keep infrastructure content in a separate technical section so it does not overwhelm business users looking for campaign guidance.
