I have implemented App Center Push notifications in my Xamarin forms app, with several messaging strategies.

  1. send same message to list of users.

Note The App Center Push to User feature limits notifications to 100 users and up to a maximum of 1,000 target devices.

In my logic I break the messages into 100 user blocks.

  1. send unique message to each user (1 user/push).

My question is there a rate limit on how many times I can hit API per minute, per hour etc?

When sending the individual custom messages and group messages, if i need to send to 1000 users, that's 1000 or 10 API hits.

Or did I miss a way to do this in documentation?

  • Did you get anywhere on this? I like to send out a message to over 1000 users I don’t know if there’s a way to do it using App center – Jefferson Feb 13 '20 at 00:34
  • I did not get anywhere on this, I built the logic to send individually, but haven't had chance to load test it yet. I go side tracked with other feature work. Then also looking at OneSignal which i started using on another app years ago before they partnered with AppCenter. – ChampChris Feb 13 '20 at 15:47

I believe that closest you can get as of now - is assigning userIds on SDK side, or using install IDs, and then setting up Push campaigns based on batches of those fields, manually.

Refer to those pages for more details:

App Center is retiring Push Notifications. Means this is no longer a concern and different path will have to be taken.
