Push message report high-level stats.
Delivery statistics and outcome definitions
Important concepts:- Push Subscriptions can refer to mobile and web push subscriptions depending on the audience and settings used in the message.
- OneSignal (like all push providers) sends push notifications to the push services (Google (FCM), Apple (APNs), Huawei (HMS), etc.) which in turn sends them to your users.
- The Delivered, Unsubscribed, and Failed responses are from the push services.
- The Confirmed Delivery and Clicked responses come from the OneSignal SDK.
| Metric | Definition |
|---|---|
| Audience | The number of push Subscriptions in the included segments, excluding duplicates and any in excluded segments. |
| Sent | The number of push Subscriptions in the audience sent the message. Excludes the unsubscribed, failed, remaining, or capped Subscriptions. |
| Delivered | The number of push notifications that were successfully received by the push services. |
| Confirmed Delivery | The number of push Subscriptions that confirmed receiving the message. |
| Unsubscribed | The number of push Subscriptions that did not receive the message because they uninstalled the app, cleared browser data, or opted out of push and have not opened the app since. |
| Failed | The number of push Subscriptions that did not receive the message because of an error. See Failure message troubleshooting. |
| Remaining | The number of notifications still queued on the OneSignal side for sending. |
| Capped | The number of notifications not sent due to frequency capping settings. |
| Clicks | The number of clicks on the message. |
| Click-Through Rate | Calculated as (Clicks / Delivered) * 100%. |
| Confirmed CTR | Calculated as (Clicks / Confirmed Delivered) * 100%. |
| Influenced Opens | The number of app opens that occurred after receiving the notification, without clicking. Based on time window set in Settings > Push & In-App > Influenced Opens. |
Failure message troubleshooting
These errors prevented OneSignal from delivering the message to the push provider:| Error | Type | Troubleshooting Steps |
|---|---|---|
| 401 Unauthorized | Web | Web push server gave an unclear 401 error. Retry cautiously — it may cause duplicate sends. |
| 404 Not Found | Web | Invalid push subscription endpoint (bad token). |
| Authentication Error | FCM | Check your FCM credentials, re-upload the service account file, and try again. |
| DeviceTokenNotForTopic | APNs | Token’s Bundle ID does not match your APNs key or certificate. Fix in p8 token or p12 setup. |
| Expired Certificate | APNs | Your p12 certificate has expired. See certificate setup. |
| FcmV1InvalidToken / Not Found | FCM | Invalid push token. Check Firebase credentials. Devices must reopen app to refresh tokens. |
| None / Missing | FCM | Firebase Cloud Messaging API may not be enabled in your project. Activate in the Firebase Console and retry. |
| Permission Denied | FCM | Check the full error message for which permission is missing. Update the permission for the Service Account file and re-upload it to OneSignal. |
| SenderIdMismatch | FCM | FCM v1 Sender ID mismatch. Verify Firebase credentials. Users must reopen the app for updated tokens. |
| TopicDisallowed | APNs | APNs token mismatch. Check your Team ID, Key ID, and Bundle ID in p8 config. |
