Examples

The following example demonstrates the use of this method to set the icon for the app notification button.

var notification = new AppNotificationBuilder()
    .AddText("Notification text.")
    .AddButton(new AppNotificationButton("Reply")
        .AddArgument("action", "reply")
        .SetIcon(new Uri("ms-appx:///Images/Reply.png")))
    .BuildNotification();

AppNotificationManager.Default.Show(notification);

The resulting XML payload if the urgent scenario is supported:

<toast>
    <visual>
        <binding template='ToastGeneric'>
            <text>Notification text.</text>
        </binding>
    </visual>
    <actions>
        <action content='Reply' arguments='action=reply' imageUri='ms-appx:///Images/Reply.png'/>
    </actions>
</toast>
