  • Hi antoine69,

    Ordinarily, push notifications are supported only on HTTPS sites, but we work around that by sending your push notifications on a subdomain of our own site, which is HTTPS. During the setup process, you’re asked to choose a subdomain name. For example, you might choose “example”, and then your push notifications will be sent from “example.onesignal.com”. Our SDK communicates between your site and our server to link “example.onesignal.com” with your website.

    Because of this, your site may be HTTP or HTTPS. If your site is HTTPS, push notifications will officially come from your site. If your site is HTTP, we’ll use our work around and push notifications will officially come from our site.

    Regardless of which protocol your site uses, your users will receive a similar experience. It’s recommended to set up HTTPS, as HTTP sites place a few restrictions on users such as not being able to automatically prompt the user for push notifications.
