**Viber notification plugin for Jenkins **
** **This plugin sends out notifications/text messages directly to your Viber public account via Jenkins. Each public account would an unique authentication token which you need to configure in Jenkins. The authentication token (also known as application key) is a unique and secret account identifier. It is used to authenticate requests in the Public Accounts API and to prevent unauthorized persons from sending requests on behalf of a Public Account. You will need this token during the integration process (Viber public account + Jenkins). The authentication token is generated upon Public Account creation and can be viewed by the account's admins in the "edit info" screen of their Public Account.
