Activation

An activation applies a privilege (and optionally a notification) to many passes. Use activations for campaigns and scheduled rollouts.

What an activation contains

1. Segmentation: which passes are targeted.
2. Trigger: when the activation runs.
3. Configuration: what is applied (privilege + optional notification).

How it differs from a Privilege

A Privilege is the object stored on a pass. An activation is the “batch mechanism” that creates or updates privileges at scale.

Execution model (high level)

• When the trigger fires, the platform resolves the segment into pass ids.
• The platform applies the configured privilege to each pass.
• Each updated pass is pushed to Apple/Google via the usual update pipeline.

Use an activation when you need repeatable logic. Use the privilege API when you target a single pass.
