+```bash
+  curl -X POST "http://localhost:8008/message?token=<token-from-application>" -F "title=My Title" -F "message=This is my message"
+```
+
+**python**
+
+```python
+import requests #pip install requests
+resp = requests.post('http://localhost:8008/message?token=<token-from-application>', json={
+    "message": "Well hello there.",
+    "priority": 2,
+    "title": "This is my title"
+})
+```
+
+**golang**
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+        "net/http"
+        "net/url"
+)
