Additional Notes on Push Notification Tracking Links

• Placement: The tracking link will be attached to the push notification and triggered when the user clicks on it.
• One Unique Link per Notification: OptiKPI supports only one CTA link per push notification.
• Automatic Campaign Association:For push templates used in multiple campaigns, OptiKPI automatically assigns and tracks the correct CTA links per campaign.
