Broadcast

A Broadcast entity is a message template that has been scheduled and/or delivered to Subscribers within the Mobile Database.

The following are the three main sections to a Broadcast:

The Metadata information, which includes the fields about the Broadcast, such as the ID, URL, created date, and so on.
The Targeting information, which includes the fields used to identify recipients and craft the message.
The Delivery information, which is the metadata about the actual message delivery.
