Events

Events are notifications back to QWASI from your application or your backend system. Events basically describe an action that has occurred either in your iOS Application, on your website, in your CRM, or from the Internet of Things. Any communication sent or received by QWASI automatically generates an event. Likewise, as a developer you may want to send us an event when one of your users logs into your website, or abandons a shopping cart, or turns on a light switch. We don't care, but you might. Look in any of the SDK documentation on how to send events to QWASI from your App. The API documentation describes how you would accomplish this via a third party system.

Locations

Making your applications location aware not only gives you valuable insight into WHERE your application and users are when they engage, it allows you to customize their experience simply and easily. We aim to make the configuration of iBeacon™, GPS, and Cell Lookup locations easy with our UI and APIs. We also work with leading location providers and beacon providers to mutually enhance our offerings.

When using the QWASI SDKs, your native application gets notified when it enters or exits a location of interest - but also more importantly your back-end systems will get notified simultaneously. We keep the locations your application is monitoring fresh and relevant - location aware. Load hundreds or thousands of geofences into the QWASI UI or via API, and our SDK will take it from there.
