+##### Pushing EDUs
+
+{{% added-in v="1.13" %}}
+
+If the `receive_ephemeral` settings is enabled in the [registration](#registration)
+file, homeservers MUST send all EDUs that are relevant to the application
+service via the transaction API, using the `ephemeral` property of the request's
+body. This property is an array that is effectively a combination of the
+`presence` and `ephemeral` sections of the client-server [`/sync`](/client-server-api/#get_matrixclientv3sync)
+API. It means that there are only three event types that can currently occur:
+[`m.presence`](/client-server-api/#mpresence), [`m.typing`](/client-server-api/#mtyping),
+and [`m.receipt`](/client-server-api/#mreceipt).
+
+EDUs that can be associated to a particular room (i.e. `m.typing` or `m.receipt`)
+MUST also include a `room_id` property to identify the room that they were sent
+in. They should be sent to the application service under the same rules as
+regular events, meaning that the application service must have registered
+interest in the room itself, or in a user that is in the room.
+[Private read receipts](/client-server-api/#private-read-receipts) should only
+be sent for users matching one of the application service's namespaces. Normal
+read receipts and threaded read receipts are always sent.
+
+EDUs which are not associated with a particular room (i.e. `m.presence`), should
+be sent to the application service if the EDU would apply contextually. For
+example, a presence update for a user an application service shares a room with,
+or matching one of the application service's namespaces.
