var knockClient = new KnockClient(
  new KnockOptions { ApiKey = "sk_12345" });

var identifyUserParams = new Dictionary<string, object>{
  { "name", "John Hammond" },
  { "email", "jhammond@ingen.net" }
};

var user = await knockClient.Users.Identify("jhammond", identifyUserParams)

var knockClient = new KnockClient(
  new KnockOptions { ApiKey = "sk_12345" });

var user = await knockClient.Users.Get("jhammond")

Triggering workflows

var knockClient = new KnockClient(
  new KnockOptions { ApiKey = "sk_12345" });

var workflowTrigger = new TriggerWorkflow {
  // list of user ids for who should receive the notif
  Recipients = ["jhammond", "agrant", "imalcolm", "esattler"],
  // user id of who performed the action
  Actor: "dnedry",
  // an optional cancellation key
  CancellationKey: alert.Id,
  // an optional tenant
  Tenant: "jurassic-park",
  // data payload to send through
  Data: new Dictionary<string, object>{
    {"type", "trex"},
    {"priority", "1"}
  },
};

var result = await knockClient.Workflows.Trigger("dinosaurs-loose", workflowTrigger)

Preferences

var knockClient = new KnockClient(
  new KnockOptions { ApiKey = "sk_12345" });

// Set preference set for user
var preferenceSetUpdate = new SetPreferenceSet {
  ChannelTypes = new Dictionary<string, boolean> {
    {"email", false}
  }
};

var result = await knockClient.Users.SetPreferences("jhammond", preferenceSetUpdate);

// Set granular channel type preferences
var result = await knockClient.Users.SetChannelTypePreferences("jhammond", "email", true);

// Set granular workflow preferences
var result = await knockClient.Users.SetWorkflowPreferences("jhammond", "dinosaurs-loose", false);

// Retrieve preferences
var preferenceSet = await knockClient.Users.GetPreferences("jhammond");

Getting and setting channel data

var knockClient = new KnockClient(
  new KnockOptions { ApiKey = "sk_12345" });

// Set channel data for an APNS channel
var channelData = new Dictionary<string, List<string>>{
  {"tokens", [apnsToken]},
};

var result = await knockClient.Users.SetChannelData("jhammond", knockApnsChannelId, channelData);

// Get channel data for the APNS channel
var result = await knockClient.Users.GetChannelData("jhammond", knockApnsChannelId);

  // The cancellation key that corresponds with the original workflow run
  CancellationKey = alert.id,
};

var result = await knockClient.Workflows.cancel("dinosaurs-loose", cancelParams);
