Examples
The following example shows how to create and send a toast notification that includes text and images, including the use of the CreateToastNotifier method.
var notifications = Windows.UI.Notifications;
// Get the toast notification manager for the current app.
var notificationManager = notifications.ToastNotificationManager;
// The getTemplateContent method returns a Windows.Data.Xml.Dom.XmlDocument object
// that contains the toast notification XML content.
var template = notifications.toastTemplateType.toastImageAndText01;
var toastXml = notificationManager.getTemplateContent(notifications.ToastTemplateType[template]);
// You can use the methods from the XML document to specify the required elements for the toast.
var images = toastXml.getElementsByTagName("image");
images[0].setAttribute("src", "images/toastImageAndText.png");
var textNodes = toastXml.getElementsByTagName("text");
textNodes.forEach(function (value, index) {
var textNumber = index + 1;
var text = "";
for (var j = 0; j < 10; j++) {
text += "Text input " + /*@static_cast(String)*/textNumber + " ";
}
value.appendChild(toastXml.createTextNode(text));
});
// Create a toast notification from the XML, then create a ToastNotifier object
// to send the toast.
var toast = new notifications.ToastNotification(toastXml);
notificationManager.createToastNotifier().show(toast);
Remarks
Do not use this overload when creating a toast notifier for a desktop app. Use CreateToastNotifier(appID) to supply the required AppUserModelID.
If your app uses a background voice-over-Internet protocol (VOIP) agent, it must specify the app ID to show a toast. Use the CreateToastNotifier(appID) method overload.

Applies to
CreateToastNotifier(String)
Creates and initializes a new instance of the ToastNotification, bound to a specified app, usually another app in the same package.
public:
static ToastNotifier ^ CreateToastNotifier(Platform::String ^ applicationId);
/// [Windows.Foundation.Metadata.Overload("CreateToastNotifierWithId")]
static ToastNotifier CreateToastNotifier(winrt::hstring const& applicationId);
[Windows.Foundation.Metadata.Overload("CreateToastNotifierWithId")]
public static ToastNotifier CreateToastNotifier(string applicationId);
function createToastNotifier(applicationId)
Public Shared Function CreateToastNotifier (applicationId As String) As ToastNotifier
Parameters
- applicationId
-
String
Platform::String
winrt::hstring
The unique ID of the app.
Note
You can't send a toast notification to a secondary tile, so this must be the ID of an app tile.
Returns
The object you will use to send the toast notification to the tile.
- Attributes
Remarks
The app identified by applicationId must belong to the same package as the caller.
Use this form of the method if your app uses a background voice-over-Internet protocol (VOIP) agent, to specify the app ID required to show a toast in that case.
Sending toast notifications from desktop apps
Generally, sending a toast notification from a desktop app is the same as sending it from a UWP app. However, you should be aware of these differences and requirements:
- For a desktop app to display a toast, the app must have a shortcut on the Start screen.
- The shortcut must have an AppUserModelID.
- Desktop apps cannot schedule a toast.
