Pushover
Add Pushover to your product for your customers, and give your AI agents governed access to it.
Pushover is a push notification delivery service, so of the categories here Communication is the least wrong: there are messages and recipients, but no threaded conversations. Every send carries two credentials, an application token and a user or delivery group key, and getting them the wrong way round is the usual first failure. Messages are capped at roughly a thousand characters, and emergency priority behaves differently from all other priorities: it requires retry and expire values and returns a receipt that you poll until the alert is acknowledged, otherwise it keeps re-alerting. Quota is counted per application per month rather than per recipient, so one noisy tenant can exhaust it for everyone if you share a token. fastn keeps each customer's own application token and group keys separate and handles rotation without redeploying your alerting code.
In your product
Embedded for your customers. Per-tenant auth, no per-customer code, maintained by fastn.
Let a customer connect their own Pushover application so alerts count against their quota and carry their branding
Send threshold and job-failure alerts to a customer's delivery group rather than a single device
Escalate critical alerts at emergency priority and track the receipt until someone acknowledges
Let end users choose which of your event types push to their devices and at what priority
For your AI agents
Governed, audited access for the agents you build, through the MCP server.
Let an agent send alerts only to pre-approved delivery groups and never at emergency priority without approval
Have an agent check an emergency receipt and report whether the alert was acknowledged
Audit per tenant every push an agent sent, with recipient key, priority and quota consumed
Example prompt
Has anyone acknowledged the emergency Pushover alert we sent for the failed nightly job?
Set up Pushover in 4 steps
- 01Enable the Pushover connector from your fastn dashboard.
- 02Have each customer authorise their own Pushover account, so calls run under their credentials rather than a shared key.
- 03Decide which messages, conversations and participants your product needs, map those fields, then enable the actions and triggers you want.
- 04Call it from your product and expose it to your agents through the same governed connection.
Why teams use the Pushover integration
What you get by embedding it with fastn instead of building it yourself.
- Ship a Pushover integration without building it. Your customers connect their own Pushover account inside your product and work their messages, conversations and participants there, with no per-customer code on your side.
- Handle the part that actually costs time: anything sent is user-visible, so duplicates and misfires are immediately embarrassing. fastn owns the auth, token refresh, rate limits, pagination and breaking-change fixes, so a Pushover update is not your on-call problem.
- One integration serves your product and your agents. The same governed Pushover connection powers in-product features and gives AI agents scoped, audited access, so you put the right message in front of the right team automatically without wiring it twice.

How do I add a Pushover integration to my product?
Enable the Pushover connector in your fastn dashboard, then let each customer authenticate their own Pushover account. fastn handles the OAuth flow, token storage and refresh per tenant, so there is no Pushover client code in your app and no per-customer branch in your codebase. Setup is 4 steps.
Do my customers each connect their own Pushover account?
Yes. Every connection is scoped to the individual customer, so each authorises their own Pushover account and only ever sees their own messages, conversations and participants. That per-tenant isolation is the point of an embedded integration: you support the long tail of customer setups without maintaining an integration per customer.
Can AI agents use this Pushover integration?
Yes. The same connection is exposed to your agents through the fastn MCP gateway, with permissions scoped per tenant and every call audited. Let an agent send alerts only to pre-approved delivery groups and never at emergency priority without approval
Who maintains the Pushover integration?
fastn does. When Pushover changes an endpoint, deprecates a field or alters its auth, the fix lands in the connector rather than in your backlog, and your customers' connections keep working.
Does each customer connect their own Pushover account?
Yes. Every customer authorises their own Pushover account, so messages, meetings and notifications originate from their workspace under their permissions. You never proxy through a shared account, which also means a customer revoking access affects only their own connection.
How are duplicate notifications avoided?
Sends are deduplicated per event, so a retry after a network failure does not post the same message twice into a channel people are reading.
What can I build with the Pushover integration?
A common starting point: let a customer connect their own Pushover application so alerts count against their quota and carry their branding. Teams also use it for the other use cases listed above, and expose it to agents for governed reads and writes.
How much does the Pushover integration cost?
It is included. Pricing is based on connected accounts, not on how many connectors you enable, so adding Pushover does not change your per-connector cost. You can start free with 3 connected accounts.
