## The Apprise Notification Object
The **[[The Apprise Object|Development_API#the-apprise-object]]** actually already does a really good managing these for you. But if you want to manage the notifications yourself here is how you can do it:
```python
# Import this library
import apprise
# Instantiate an object. This is what the apprise object
# would have otherwise done under the hood:
obj = apprise.Apprise.instantiate('glib://')
# Now you can use the notify() function to pass notifications.
# notify() is similar to Apprise.notify() except the overhead of
# of tagging is not present. There also no handling of the
# the text input type (HTML, MARKUP, etc). This is on you
# to manipulate before passing in the content.
obj.notify(
body=u"A test message",
title=u"a title",
)
# send() is a very low level call which directly posts the
# body and title you specify to the remote notification server
# There is NO data manipulation here, no overflow handling
# nothing. But this allows you to free form your own
# messages and pass them along using the apprise handling
obj.send(
body=u"A test message",
title=u"a title",
