# Publishing
Publishing messages can be done via HTTP PUT or POST. Topics are created on the fly by subscribing or publishing to them.
Because there is no sign-up, **the topic is essentially a password**, so pick something that's not easily guessable.

Here's an example showing how to publish a simple message using a POST request:

=== "Command line (curl)"
    ```
    curl -d "Backup successful 😀" ntfy.sh/mytopic
    ```

=== "HTTP"
    ``` http
    POST /mytopic HTTP/1.1
    Host: ntfy.sh

    Backup successful 😀
    ```
=== "JavaScript"
    ``` javascript
    fetch('https://ntfy.sh/mytopic', {
      method: 'POST', // PUT works too
      body: 'Backup successful 😀'
    })
    ```

=== "Go"
    ``` go
    http.Post("https://ntfy.sh/mytopic", "text/plain",
        strings.NewReader("Backup successful 😀"))
    ```

=== "Python"
    ``` python
    requests.post("https://ntfy.sh/mytopic", 
        data="Backup successful 😀".encode(encoding='utf-8'))
    ```

=== "PHP"
    ``` php-inline
    file_get_contents('https://ntfy.sh/mytopic', false, stream_context_create([
        'http' => [
            'method' => 'POST', // PUT also works
            'header' => 'Content-Type: text/plain',
            'content' => 'Backup successful 😀'
        ]
    ]));
    ```

If you have the [Android app](subscribe/phone.md) installed on your phone, this will create a notification that looks like this:

<figure markdown>
  ![basic notification](static/img/android-screenshot-basic-notification.png){ width=500 }
  <figcaption>Android notification</figcaption>
</figure>

There are more features related to publishing messages: You can set a [notification priority](#message-priority), 
a [title](#message-title), and [tag messages](#tags-emojis) 🥳 🎉. Here's an example that uses some of them at together:

=== "Command line (curl)"
    ```
    curl \
      -H "Title: Unauthorized access detected" \
      -H "Priority: urgent" \
      -H "Tags: warning,skull" \
      -d "Remote access to phils-laptop detected. Act right away." \
      ntfy.sh/phil_alerts
    ```

=== "HTTP"
    ``` http
    POST /phil_alerts HTTP/1.1
    Host: ntfy.sh
    Title: Unauthorized access detected
    Priority: urgent
    Tags: warning,skull
    
    Remote access to phils-laptop detected. Act right away.
    ```

=== "JavaScript"
    ``` javascript
    fetch('https://ntfy.sh/phil_alerts', {
        method: 'POST', // PUT works too
        body: 'Remote access to phils-laptop detected. Act right away.',
        headers: {
            'Title': 'Unauthorized access detected',
            'Priority': 'urgent',
            'Tags': 'warning,skull'
        }
    })
    ```

=== "Go"
    ``` go
	req, _ := http.NewRequest("POST", "https://ntfy.sh/phil_alerts",
		strings.NewReader("Remote access to phils-laptop detected. Act right away."))
	req.Header.Set("Title", "Unauthorized access detected")
	req.Header.Set("Priority", "urgent")
	req.Header.Set("Tags", "warning,skull")
	http.DefaultClient.Do(req)
    ```

=== "Python"
    ``` python
    requests.post("https://ntfy.sh/phil_alerts",
        data="Remote access to phils-laptop detected. Act right away.",
        headers={
            "Title": "Unauthorized access detected",
            "Priority": "urgent",
            "Tags": "warning,skull"
        })
    ```

=== "PHP"
    ``` php-inline
    file_get_contents('https://ntfy.sh/phil_alerts', false, stream_context_create([
        'http' => [
            'method' => 'POST', // PUT also works
            'header' =>
                "Content-Type: text/plain\r\n" .
                "Title: Unauthorized access detected\r\n" .
                "Priority: urgent\r\n" .
                "Tags: warning,skull",
            'content' => 'Remote access to phils-laptop detected. Act right away.'
        ]
    ]));
    ```

## Message title
The notification title is typically set to the topic short URL (e.g. `ntfy.sh/mytopic`). To override the title, 
you can set the `X-Title` header (or any of its aliases: `Title`, `ti`, or `t`).

=== "Command line (curl)"
    ```
    curl -H "X-Title: Dogs are better than cats" -d "Oh my ..." ntfy.sh/controversial
    curl -H "Title: Dogs are better than cats" -d "Oh my ..." ntfy.sh/controversial
    curl -H "t: Dogs are better than cats" -d "Oh my ..." ntfy.sh/controversial
    ```

=== "HTTP"
    ``` http
    POST /controversial HTTP/1.1
    Host: ntfy.sh
    Title: Dogs are better than cats
    
    Oh my ...
    ```

=== "JavaScript"
    ``` javascript
    fetch('https://ntfy.sh/controversial', {
        method: 'POST',
        body: 'Oh my ...',
        headers: { 'Title': 'Dogs are better than cats' }
    })
    ```

=== "Go"
    ``` go
    req, _ := http.NewRequest("POST", "https://ntfy.sh/controversial", strings.NewReader("Oh my ..."))
    req.Header.Set("Title", "Dogs are better than cats")
    http.DefaultClient.Do(req)
    ```

=== "Python"
    ``` python
    requests.post("https://ntfy.sh/controversial",
        data="Oh my ...",
        headers={ "Title": "Dogs are better than cats" })
    ```

=== "PHP"
    ``` php-inline
    file_get_contents('https://ntfy.sh/controversial', false, stream_context_create([
        'http' => [
            'method' => 'POST',
            'header' =>
                "Content-Type: text/plain\r\n" .
                "Title: Dogs are better than cats",
            'content' => 'Oh my ...'
        ]
    ]));
    ```

## Message priority
All messages have a priority, which defines how urgently your phone notifies you. You can set custom
notification sounds and vibration patterns on your phone to map to these priorities (see [Android config](subscribe/phone.md)).

The following priorities exist:

| Priority | Icon | ID | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Max priority | ![min priority](static/img/priority-5.svg) | `5` | `max`/`urgent` | Really long vibration bursts, default notification sound with a pop-over notification. |
| High priority | ![min priority](static/img/priority-4.svg) | `4` | `high` | Long vibration burst, default notification sound with a pop-over notification. |
| **Default priority** | *(none)* | `3` | `default` | Short default vibration and sound. Default notification behavior. |
| Low priority | ![min priority](static/img/priority-2.svg) |`2` | `low` | No vibration or sound. Notification will not visibly show up until notification drawer is pulled down. |
| Min priority | ![min priority](static/img/priority-1.svg) | `1` | `min` | No vibration or sound. The notification will be under the fold in "Other notifications". |

You can set the priority with the header `X-Priority` (or any of its aliases: `Priority`, `prio`, or `p`).

=== "Command line (curl)"
    ```
    curl -H "X-Priority: 5" -d "An urgent message" ntfy.sh/phil_alerts
    curl -H "Priority: low" -d "Low priority message" ntfy.sh/phil_alerts
    curl -H p:4 -d "A high priority message" ntfy.sh/phil_alerts
    ```

=== "HTTP"
    ``` http
    POST /phil_alerts HTTP/1.1
    Host: ntfy.sh
    Priority: 5

    An urgent message
    ```

=== "JavaScript"
    ``` javascript
    fetch('https://ntfy.sh/phil_alerts', {
        method: 'POST',
        body: 'An urgent message',
        headers: { 'Priority': '5' }
    })
    ```

=== "Go"
    ``` go
    req, _ := http.NewRequest("POST", "https://ntfy.sh/phil_alerts", strings.NewReader("An urgent message"))
    req.Header.Set("Priority", "5")
    http.DefaultClient.Do(req)
    ```

=== "Python"
    ``` python
    requests.post("https://ntfy.sh/phil_alerts",
        data="An urgent message",
        headers={ "Priority": "5" })
    ```

=== "PHP"
    ``` php-inline
    file_get_contents('https://ntfy.sh/phil_alerts', false, stream_context_create([
        'http' => [
            'method' => 'POST',
            'header' =>
                "Content-Type: text/plain\r\n" .
                "Priority: 5",
            'content' => 'An urgent message'
        ]
    ]));
    ```

## Tags & emojis 🥳 🎉
You can tag messages with emojis and other relevant strings:

* **Emojis**: If a tag matches an [emoji short code](emojis.md), it'll be converted to an emoji and prepended 
  to title or message.
* **Other tags:** If a tag doesn't match, it will be listed below the notification. 

This feature is useful for things like warnings (⚠️, ️🚨, or 🚩), but also to simply tag messages otherwise (e.g. script 
names, hostnames, etc.). Use [the emoji short code list](emojis.md) to figure out what tags can be converted to emojis. 
Here's an **excerpt of emojis** I've found very useful in alert messages:

<table class="remove-md-box"><tr>
<td>
    <table><thead><tr><th>Tag</th><th>Emoji</th></tr></thead><tbody>
    <tr><td><code>+1</code></td><td>👍️</td></tr>
    <tr><td><code>partying_face</code></td><td>🥳</td></tr>
    <tr><td><code>tada</code></td><td>🎉</td></tr>
    <tr><td><code>heavy_check_mark</code></td><td>✔️</td></tr>
    <tr><td><code>loudspeaker</code></td><td>📢</td></tr>
    <tr><td>...</td><td>...</td></tr>
    </tbody></table>
</td>
<td>
    <table><thead><tr><th>Tag</th><th>Emoji</th></tr></thead><tbody> 
    <tr><td><code>-1</code></td><td>👎️</td></tr>
    <tr><td><code>warning</code></td><td>⚠️</td></tr>
    <tr><td><code>rotating_light</code></td><td>️🚨</td></tr>
    <tr><td><code>triangular_flag_on_post</code></td><td>🚩</td></tr>
    <tr><td><code>skull</code></td><td>💀</td></tr>
    <tr><td>...</td><td>...</td></tr>
    </tbody></table>
</td>
<td>
    <table><thead><tr><th>Tag</th><th>Emoji</th></tr></thead><tbody>
    <tr><td><code>facepalm</code></td><td>🤦</td></tr>
    <tr><td><code>no_entry</code></td><td>⛔</td></tr>
    <tr><td><code>no_entry_sign</code></td><td>🚫</td></tr>
    <tr><td><code>cd</code></td><td>💿</td></tr> 
    <tr><td><code>computer</code></td><td>💻</td></tr>
    <tr><td>...</td><td>...</td></tr>
    </tbody></table>
</td>
</tr></table>

You can set tags with the `X-Tags` header (or any of its aliases: `Tags`, `tag`, or `ta`). Specify multiple tags by separating
them with a comma, e.g. `tag1,tag2,tag3`.

=== "Command line (curl)"
    ```
    curl -H "X-Tags: warning,mailsrv13,daily-backup" -d "Backup of mailsrv13 failed" ntfy.sh/backups
    curl -H "Tags: horse,unicorn" -d "Unicorns are just horses with unique horns" ntfy.sh/backups
    curl -H ta:dog -d "Dogs are awesome" ntfy.sh/backups
    ```

=== "HTTP"
    ``` http
    POST /backups HTTP/1.1
    Host: ntfy.sh
    Tags: warning,mailsrv13,daily-backup
    
    Backup of mailsrv13 failed
    ```

=== "JavaScript"
    ``` javascript
    fetch('https://ntfy.sh/backups', {
        method: 'POST',
        body: 'Backup of mailsrv13 failed',
        headers: { 'Tags': 'warning,mailsrv13,daily-backup' }
    })
    ```

=== "Go"
    ``` go
    req, _ := http.NewRequest("POST", "https://ntfy.sh/backups", strings.NewReader("Backup of mailsrv13 failed"))
    req.Header.Set("Tags", "warning,mailsrv13,daily-backup")
    http.DefaultClient.Do(req)
    ```

=== "Python"
    ``` python
    requests.post("https://ntfy.sh/backups",
        data="Backup of mailsrv13 failed",
        headers={ "Tags": "warning,mailsrv13,daily-backup" })
    ```

=== "PHP"
    ``` php-inline
    file_get_contents('https://ntfy.sh/backups', false, stream_context_create([
        'http' => [
            'method' => 'POST',
            'header' =>
                "Content-Type: text/plain\r\n" .
                "Tags: warning,mailsrv13,daily-backup",
            'content' => 'Backup of mailsrv13 failed'
        ]
    ]));
    ```

## Scheduled delivery
You can delay the delivery of messages and let ntfy send them at a later date. This can be used to send yourself 
reminders or even to execute commands at a later date (if your subscriber acts on messages).

Usage is pretty straight forward. You can set the delivery time using the `X-Delay` header (or any of its aliases: `Delay`, 
`X-At`, `At`, `X-In` or `In`), either by specifying a Unix timestamp (e.g. `1639194738`), a duration (e.g. `30m`, 
`3h`, `2 days`), or a natural language time string (e.g. `10am`, `8:30pm`, `tomorrow, 3pm`, `Tuesday, 7am`, 
[and more](https://github.com/olebedev/when)). 

As of today, the minimum delay you can set is **10 seconds** and the maximum delay is **3 days**. This can currently
not be configured otherwise ([let me know](https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/issues) if you'd like to change 
these limits).

For the purposes of [message caching](config.md#message-cache), scheduled messages are kept in the cache until 12 hours 
after they were delivered (or whatever the server-side cache duration is set to). For instance, if a message is scheduled
to be delivered in 3 days, it'll remain in the cache for 3 days and 12 hours. Also note that naturally, 
[turning off server-side caching](#message-caching) is not possible in combination with this feature.  

=== "Command line (curl)"
    ```
    curl -H "At: tomorrow, 10am" -d "Good morning" ntfy.sh/hello
    curl -H "In: 30min" -d "It's 30 minutes later now" ntfy.sh/reminder
    curl -H "Delay: 1639194738" -d "Unix timestamps are awesome" ntfy.sh/itsaunixsystem
    ```

=== "HTTP"
    ``` http
    POST /hello HTTP/1.1
    Host: ntfy.sh
    At: tomorrow, 10am

    Good morning
    ```

=== "JavaScript"
    ``` javascript
    fetch('https://ntfy.sh/hello', {
        method: 'POST',
        body: 'Good morning',
        headers: { 'At': 'tomorrow, 10am' }
    })
    ```

=== "Go"
    ``` go
    req, _ := http.NewRequest("POST", "https://ntfy.sh/hello", strings.NewReader("Good morning"))
    req.Header.Set("At", "tomorrow, 10am")
    http.DefaultClient.Do(req)
    ```

=== "Python"
    ``` python
    requests.post("https://ntfy.sh/hello",
        data="Good morning",
        headers={ "At": "tomorrow, 10am" })
    ```

=== "PHP"
    ``` php-inline
    file_get_contents('https://ntfy.sh/backups', false, stream_context_create([
        'http' => [
            'method' => 'POST',
            'header' =>
                "Content-Type: text/plain\r\n" .
                "At: tomorrow, 10am",
            'content' => 'Good morning'
        ]
    ]));
    ```

Here are a few examples (assuming today's date is **12/10/2021, 9am, Eastern Time Zone**):

<table class="remove-md-box"><tr>
<td>
    <table><thead><tr><th><code>Delay/At/In</code> header</th><th>Message will be delivered at</th><th>Explanation</th></tr></thead><tbody>
    <tr><td><code>30m</code></td><td>12/10/2021, 9:<b>30</b>am</td><td>30 minutes from now</td></tr>
    <tr><td><code>2 hours</code></td><td>12/10/2021, <b>11:30</b>am</td><td>2 hours from now</td></tr>
    <tr><td><code>1 day</code></td><td>12/<b>11</b>/2021, 9am</td><td>24 hours from now</td></tr>
    <tr><td><code>10am</code></td><td>12/10/2021, <b>10am</b></td><td>Today at 10am (same day, because it's only 9am)</td></tr>
    <tr><td><code>8am</code></td><td>12/<b>11</b>/2021, <b>8am</b></td><td>Tomorrow at 8am (because it's 9am already)</td></tr>
    <tr><td><code>1639152000</code></td><td>12/10/2021, 11am (EST)</td><td> Today at 11am (EST)</td></tr>
    </tbody></table>
</td>
</tr></table>

## Webhooks (Send via GET) 
In addition to using PUT/POST, you can also send to topics via simple HTTP GET requests. This makes it easy to use 
a ntfy topic as a [webhook](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webhook), or if your client has limited HTTP support (e.g.
like the [MacroDroid](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.arlosoft.macrodroid) Android app).

To send messages via HTTP GET, simply call the `/publish` endpoint (or its aliases `/send` and `/trigger`). Without 
any arguments, this will send the message `triggered` to the topic. However, you can provide all arguments that are 
also supported as HTTP headers as URL-encoded arguments. Be sure to check the list of all 
[supported parameters and headers](#list-of-all-parameters) for details.

For instance, assuming your topic is `mywebhook`, you can simply call `/mywebhook/trigger` to send a message 
(aka trigger the webhook):

=== "Command line (curl)"
    ```
    curl ntfy.sh/mywebhook/trigger
    ```

=== "HTTP"
    ``` http
    GET /mywebhook/trigger HTTP/1.1
    Host: ntfy.sh
    ```

=== "JavaScript"
    ``` javascript
    fetch('https://ntfy.sh/mywebhook/trigger')
    ```

=== "Go"
    ``` go
    http.Get("https://ntfy.sh/mywebhook/trigger")
    ```

=== "Python"
    ``` python
    requests.get("https://ntfy.sh/mywebhook/trigger")
    ```

=== "PHP"
    ``` php-inline
    file_get_contents('https://ntfy.sh/mywebhook/trigger');
    ```

To add a custom message, simply append the `message=` URL parameter. And of course you can set the 
[message priority](#message-priority), the [message title](#message-title), and [tags](#tags-emojis) as well. 
For a full list of possible parameters, check the list of [supported parameters and headers](#list-of-all-parameters).

Here's an example with a custom message, tags and a priority:

=== "Command line (curl)"
    ```
    curl "ntfy.sh/mywebhook/publish?message=Webhook+triggered&priority=high&tags=warning,skull"
    ```

=== "HTTP"
    ``` http
    GET /mywebhook/publish?message=Webhook+triggered&priority=high&tags=warning,skull HTTP/1.1
    Host: ntfy.sh
    ```

=== "JavaScript"
    ``` javascript
    fetch('https://ntfy.sh/mywebhook/publish?message=Webhook+triggered&priority=high&tags=warning,skull')
    ```

=== "Go"
    ``` go
    http.Get("https://ntfy.sh/mywebhook/publish?message=Webhook+triggered&priority=high&tags=warning,skull")
    ```

=== "Python"
    ``` python
    requests.get("https://ntfy.sh/mywebhook/publish?message=Webhook+triggered&priority=high&tags=warning,skull")
    ```

=== "PHP"
    ``` php-inline
    file_get_contents('https://ntfy.sh/mywebhook/publish?message=Webhook+triggered&priority=high&tags=warning,skull');
    ```

## Advanced features

### Message caching
!!! info
    If `Cache: no` is used, messages will only be delivered to connected subscribers, and won't be re-delivered if a 
    client re-connects. If a subscriber has (temporary) network issues or is reconnecting momentarily, 
    **messages might be missed**.

By default, the ntfy server caches messages on disk for 12 hours (see [message caching](config.md#message-cache)), so
all messages you publish are stored server-side for a little while. The reason for this is to overcome temporary 
client-side network disruptions, but arguably this feature also may raise privacy concerns.

To avoid messages being cached server-side entirely, you can set `X-Cache` header (or its alias: `Cache`) to `no`. 
This will make sure that your message is not cached on the server, even if server-side caching is enabled. Messages
are still delivered to connected subscribers, but [`since=`](subscribe/api.md#fetching-cached-messages) and 
[`poll=1`](subscribe/api.md#polling-for-messages) won't return the message anymore.

=== "Command line (curl)"
    ```
    curl -H "X-Cache: no" -d "This message won't be stored server-side" ntfy.sh/mytopic
    curl -H "Cache: no" -d "This message won't be stored server-side" ntfy.sh/mytopic
    ```

=== "HTTP"
    ``` http
    POST /mytopic HTTP/1.1
    Host: ntfy.sh
    Cache: no

    This message won't be stored server-side
    ```

=== "JavaScript"
    ``` javascript
    fetch('https://ntfy.sh/mytopic', {
        method: 'POST',
        body: 'This message won't be stored server-side',
        headers: { 'Cache': 'no' }
    })
    ```

=== "Go"
    ``` go
    req, _ := http.NewRequest("POST", "https://ntfy.sh/mytopic", strings.NewReader("This message won't be stored server-side"))
    req.Header.Set("Cache", "no")
    http.DefaultClient.Do(req)
    ```

=== "Python"
    ``` python
    requests.post("https://ntfy.sh/mytopic",
        data="This message won't be stored server-side",
        headers={ "Cache": "no" })
    ```

=== "PHP"
    ``` php-inline
    file_get_contents('https://ntfy.sh/mytopic', false, stream_context_create([
        'http' => [
            'method' => 'POST',
            'header' =>
                "Content-Type: text/plain\r\n" .
                "Cache: no",
            'content' => 'This message won't be stored server-side'
        ]
    ]));
    ```

### Disable Firebase
!!! info
    If `Firebase: no` is used and [instant delivery](subscribe/phone.md#instant-delivery) isn't enabled in the Android 
    app (Google Play variant only), **message delivery will be significantly delayed (up to 15 minutes)**. To overcome 
    this delay, simply enable instant delivery.

The ntfy server can be configured to use [Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM)](https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging)
(see [Firebase config](config.md#firebase-fcm)) for message delivery on Android (to minimize the app's battery footprint). 
The ntfy.sh server is configured this way, meaning that all messages published to ntfy.sh are also published to corresponding
FCM topics.

If you'd like to avoid forwarding messages to Firebase, you can set the `X-Firebase` header (or its alias: `Firebase`)
to `no`. This will instruct the server not to forward messages to Firebase.

=== "Command line (curl)"
    ```
    curl -H "X-Firebase: no" -d "This message won't be forwarded to FCM" ntfy.sh/mytopic
    curl -H "Firebase: no" -d "This message won't be forwarded to FCM" ntfy.sh/mytopic
    ```

=== "HTTP"
    ``` http
    POST /mytopic HTTP/1.1
    Host: ntfy.sh
    Firebase: no

    This message won't be forwarded to FCM
    ```

=== "JavaScript"
    ``` javascript
    fetch('https://ntfy.sh/mytopic', {
        method: 'POST',
        body: 'This message won't be forwarded to FCM',
        headers: { 'Firebase': 'no' }
    })
    ```

=== "Go"
    ``` go
    req, _ := http.NewRequest("POST", "https://ntfy.sh/mytopic", strings.NewReader("This message won't be forwarded to FCM"))
    req.Header.Set("Firebase", "no")
    http.DefaultClient.Do(req)
    ```

=== "Python"
    ``` python
    requests.post("https://ntfy.sh/mytopic",
        data="This message won't be forwarded to FCM",
        headers={ "Firebase": "no" })
    ```

=== "PHP"
    ``` php-inline
    file_get_contents('https://ntfy.sh/mytopic', false, stream_context_create([
        'http' => [
            'method' => 'POST',
            'header' =>
                "Content-Type: text/plain\r\n" .
                "Firebase: no",
            'content' => 'This message won't be stored server-side'
        ]
    ]));
    ```

## Limitations
There are a few limitations to the API to prevent abuse and to keep the server healthy. Most of them you won't run into,
but just in case, let's list them all:

| Limit | Description |
|---|---|
| **Message length** | Each message can be up to 512 bytes long. Longer messages are truncated. |
| **Requests per second** | By default, the server is configured to allow 60 requests at once, and then refills the your allowed requests bucket at a rate of one request per 10 seconds. You can read more about this in the [rate limiting](config.md#rate-limiting) section. |
| **Subscription limits** | By default, the server allows each visitor to keep 30 connections to the server open. |
| **Total number of topics** | By default, the server is configured to allow 5,000 topics. The ntfy.sh server has higher limits though. |

## List of all parameters
The following is a list of all parameters that can be passed when publishing a message. Parameter names are **case-insensitive**,
and can be passed as **HTTP headers** or **query parameters in the URL**.

| Parameter | Aliases (case-insensitive) | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `X-Message` | `Message`, `m` | Main body of the message as shown in the notification |
| `X-Title` | `Title`, `t` | [Message title](#message-title) |
| `X-Priority` | `Priority`, `prio`, `p` | [Message priority](#message-priority) |
| `X-Tags` | `Tags`, `ta` | [Tags and emojis](#tags-emojis) |
| `X-Delay` | `Delay`, `X-At`, `At`, `X-In`, `In` | Timestamp or duration for [delayed delivery](#scheduled-delivery) |
| `X-Cache` | `Cache` | Allows disabling [message caching](#message-caching) |
| `X-Firebase` | `Firebase` | Allows disabling [sending to Firebase](#disable-firebase) |
