First login

Notifly is a SaaS: there is nothing to deploy or configure on your own server. The whole journey from sign-up to the first notification takes a couple of minutes.

1. Sign up

Create an account in the dashboard on notifly.ru (international version — ainotifly.com). All you need is an e-mail and a password. After signing up you will receive a confirmation e-mail — follow the link in it to activate your account.

Registration is free: the Free plan includes 1,000 events per day — enough for notifications and your first monitors alike. See Quotas and plans for details.

2. First login to the dashboard

After logging in you land in the web dashboard app.notifly.ru: on the left — the Channels, Clients and Users sections, in the center — the message feed (empty for now).

So you don’t have to hunt for everything yourself, on first login the first-run wizard helps you get your first event in 60 seconds: it creates your first channel, shows its app token and a ready-made curl command with that token — just paste it into a terminal and watch the message appear in the feed.

3. Where to find the app token manually

The app token (prefix A) is the key a channel uses to authorize sending messages. You can find it at any time:

1. Open the Channels section in the side menu.
2. Pick the channel you need (or create a new one with the Create channel button).
3. The channel row has a token field — click it to reveal and copy the token.

4. First message

Insert your token and run:

curl -X POST "https://notifly.ru/message?token=<APP_TOKEN>" \
  -F "title=Hello" \
  -F "message=First message from Notifly" \
  -F "priority=5"

The same in the JSON variant (token goes in the X-Notifly-Key header):

curl -X POST "https://notifly.ru/message" \
  -H "X-Notifly-Key: <APP_TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"title": "Hello", "message": "First message from Notifly", "priority": 5}'

The response is a JSON object with the message id, and the message itself instantly appears in the dashboard feed. All sending parameters are described in Sending messages, examples in other languages — in More examples.

5. Next steps

• Install the Android app — the push lands right in your phone’s notification shade a fraction of a second after the curl.
• Create your first monitor or heartbeat — Notifly will probe your site from the cloud or notice that a cron job has stopped checking in.
• Connect Telegram delivery — enable Telegram delivery in the channel settings and the channel’s messages will be mirrored to a chat.
• Browse the ready-made recipes — for sysadmins, developers, websites and personal tasks.
