Customize the notifications behavior
You can change how the Messenger notifies the user when there is a new message waiting for them. By default, the Messenger will:
- Play a notification sound (chime) if the window tab of the Messenger is in focus.
- Rotate the page title of the Messenger window, no matter whether it's focused or not.
Change the sound
To change the sound, pass the path of a sound file to the notificationOptions.notificationSound property. If you leave it empty, the Messenger will play the default chime sound.
If you pass a null value, no sound will be played at all.

To change the <title/> of the Messenger window, pass a string to the notificationOptions.pageTitle property. The default value is [You have a new message].
If you pass a null value, the page title will not change.
