Pushbullet is a cross-device messaging and notification service that lets users sync notifications, links, files, and SMS between phones, tablets, and computers. The Pushbullet HTTP API enables developers to send pushes, manage devices and contacts, transfer files, subscribe to channels, and stream real-time events over WebSockets. Authentication uses access tokens passed in the `Access-Token` header, with optional OAuth 2.0 for third-party applications.
