Create Templates

To create a new template, click the New Push Template or New Email Template button. This brings you to a page identical to the Push or Email Creation page, but instead of sending a message, you are modifying options to create a template.

Templates may also be created by duplicating previous templates from the Templates page:

This will pre-populate the template options you've set into a new message. You can override these options (such as changing text, an icon, etc) when creating a message, by simply filling in different options. For details on these options, see:

Using templates to track performance of recurring messages

Whenever you send a message with a template, its overall performance is tracked by OneSignal in the Templates page of your Dashboard.

Best practice is to have different templates for each use case so you can monitor how well your template campaigns are converting.
