Response

If successful, this method returns a 200 OK response code and a subscription object in the response body.

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-type: application/json

{
  "id": "opaqueId-fj3hd7yf283jfk193726nvc2w3i2diemdu8",
  "notificationUrl": "https://f3hb0mpua.svc.ms/zbaehwg/callback?snthgk=1ff3-2345672zz831837523"
}

The notificationUrl returned is a socket.io endpoint URL.

The following example shows how to use the notificationUrl with socket.io in JavaScript.

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/socket.io/4.8.1/socket.io.js"></script>
<script>
  // This is the notificationUrl returned from this API
  var notificationUrl = "https://f3hb0mpua.svc.ms/zbaehwg/callback?snthgk=1ff3-2345672zz831837523";
  
  // 'io' comes from the socket.io client library
  var socket = io(notificationUrl, {
    transports: ['websocket'] // Make sure to use "websocket" instead of the default value of "polling" which isn't supported
  });
  
  socket.on("connect", () => {
    console.log(`connect`, socket.id);
  });
  
  socket.on("disconnect", () => {
    // Returns "undefined" on disconnect
    console.log(`disconnect`, socket.id);
  });
  
  socket.on("notification", (data) => {
    console.log(`Notification received:`, data);
  });
