The format of the push notifications are platform dependent, and that is why there are separate options to handle the message for Android and Windows 10.
The content of the message itself and the list/type of values sent in the case of Android, are defined by the sender of the message, so if you need to manually handle the content of the messages, you need to know how the server/backoffice system is sending these messages.
This can only be used to handle messages received while your application is running. If a message is received and your application is not running, the O.S. will make the appropriate display of the message, and if you enabled the "Save messages when application is not active" option in your project properties, it will be saved locally on the device. You can use "Push Notification ... Lost ..." actions to retrieve the messages that where received while your application was not active.
On iOS the target "From" is not available.
