Send Push Notifications

Catalyst enables you to send push notifications to 50 users in a single function call. You can add the user IDs of all users to be notified in an array as shown below. You must then pass the array to the send_notification() method, along with the message string to include in the notification. This string can be plain text, HTML, or a JSON object to be parsed.
