Android Push (FCM)
This will guide you to integrate FCM push notifications in android react native applications using SuprSend
Integration Steps
Create a Firebase project in the firebase console
To start sending notifications from FCM, you’ll have to first create a firebase project. Create a firebase project and application in firebase console with your applications package name which you can find in MainApplication.java or AndroidManifest.xml.
Adding google-services.json to your project
You can get your Service Account JSON from Firebase Console Project Settings. Download google-services.json and add the file inside your android > app folder.
Adding Firebase dependencies and plugins
Add the below dependency inside projects build.gradle inside dependencies
Add the below plugin inside the app build.gradle
Add the below dependency inside apps build.gradle inside dependencies
Implementing push
Push feature can be implemented in two ways:
You may use this option if all of your android push notifications are to be handled via SuprSend SDK. We recommend you use this method as it is just a single-step process to just register the service in your application manifest and everything else will be ready.
Targeting Android 13 (API-33):
In Android13 (API 33) or higher notification permission will be disabled by default so permission needs to be asked to enable notifications if you are targeting android 13 users. You can follow this doc to update to support Andriod 13(API 33), if not already supported: https://developer.android.com/about/versions/13/setup-sdk. Please test the application as well as upgrading to API 33 may causes breaking changes.
Add POST_NOTIFICATIONS permission in AndroidManifest.xml if not present already.
Call the SDK method to show a notification permission popup
This method is asynchronous and returns permission values like granted, denied, and never_ask_again.
NOTE: This method is asynchronous and returns permission values like granted, denied, and never_ask_again.
Once permission is granted users can be able to get push notifications.
