Find Your OneSignal App ID & REST API Key
Sending a test push through OneSignal needs three things: an App ID, a REST API key, and a Player ID to target. Here's where to find each one in the OneSignal dashboard.
- STEP 01
Open your OneSignal app
Sign in to the OneSignal dashboardand select the app you want to test push notifications for. If you don't have one yet, create a new app and add a Web Push or Mobile Push platform.
- STEP 02
Go to Settings → Keys & IDs
In the left sidebar, click Settings, then Keys & IDs. This page shows your OneSignal App ID and REST API Key.
- STEP 03
Copy the App ID and REST API Key
Copy both values. The App ID identifies which OneSignal app to send through; the REST API key authenticates the request. Treat the REST API key like a password — it can send to your entire subscriber base.
- STEP 04
Get a Player ID / Subscription ID
Open Audience → Subscriptions in the OneSignal dashboard and copy the Player ID (also called Subscription ID) of any test device or browser that has subscribed to your app. This is the target for a single test push.
- STEP 05
Send a test push from Notifi Check
Head back to the Notifi Check tester, choose the ONESIGNAL tab, and paste the App ID, REST API key, and Player ID. Both credentials are sent once per request directly to the OneSignal API and never stored server-side.
SECURITY NOTE
A OneSignal REST API key can send notifications to your entire subscriber base — treat it like a password. Don't commit it to a public repo or share it. Notifi Check sends it once per request directly to the OneSignal API and never stores it server-side.
