struct PushType

The structure that offers constants you use to configure a Live Activity to receive updates through ActivityKit push notifications. Pass the ``ActivityKit/PushType/token`` constant to the ``ActivityKit/Activity/request(attributes:contentState:pushType:)`` function to start a Live Activity that receives content updates with ActivityKit push notifications. Pass ``ActivityKit/PushType/channel(_:)`` to ``ActivityKit/Activity/request(attributes:contentState:pushType:)`` function to specify that you want to use a broadcast channel instead of a token. You can only specify one ``PushType``. To learn more about using ActivityKit push notifications to update your Live Activity, see <doc:starting-and-updating-live-activities-with-activitykit-push-notifications>.
