We are using Firebase for push notifications for Android and iOS, and all the notifications are working perfectly.
But when I log into firebase, and try to see the activity in “Streamview”, I see only iOS activity, and nothing for Android.
I do see the activity in Cloud messaging’s Report section, for both iOS and Android.
The application we have built is built using Xamarin forms.
One thing to note from the Firebase console is that it doesn’t appear as though the console recognizes that SDK setup was fully complete.
When going into the link where it says “Continue SDK Setup”.
Finally, when proceeding to step #4 it tries to verify that there has been communication between the app and Google’s servers and it doesn’t seem to find anything and it just sits there looking.
Notifications appear to work, but the app just doesn’t seem to be registering as being used under the Android side.
Any pointers in this direction will be very helpful.
i don't have any idea what is wrong here.
I want to watch complete report of my push notifications sending count, for both platform Android and iOS. but i am getting only iOS report in stream view tab not for Android.
I made the comment above and now I have found an answer, at least for my situation. I had added Xamarin.Firebase.Core to the PCL project as the documentation suggests. Later I saw documentation for Android Java that showed Firebase Core being added to the gradle file at the app level. So I added Xamarin.Firebase.Core NuGet package to the Android project also and now I can see data for Android in the Firebase Console.

We have a project where we use Firebase Crashlytics to collect crash reports from our iOS and Android app. Currently, the console is not showing any crash reports. Initially we assumed something was wrong with our project setup, but today I discovered that Crashlytics actually has been receiving the crash data, since I can see it on the Project Overview page:
However, when I open the Crashlytics page it is empty (it only shown me the guide on how to integrate Crashlytics in your app):
This is the case for both out iOS and Android app. We also have another project that is set up in the same way, but here the reports are shown correctly.
Is there perhaps some console configuration we are missing?
I have implemented firebase in my xamarin ios project. FCM token is getting generated, but when I am pushing a notification from firebase console nothing is happening. Can anyone tell me what wrong I am doing? I have used packages such as
Firebase.ios.InstanceID - 2.0.4,
Firebase.ios.Core - 4.0.8,
Firebase.ios.CloudMessaging - 2.0.4
Assuming you are testing it on a physical device and have all the necessary code in place. Make sure you have team id added in project setting at FCM console.
I have a Xamarin.Forms project and I'm using the firebase messaging platform to provide push notifications to my app.
The last step that is stopping me from publishing the app is the lack of FirebaseInstanceId Nuget for xamarin.forms which seems to exist only for xamarin.android.
The reason behind why it is so important for my project is getting the cloud messaging token. From what I've seen throughout internet forums it wasn't covered clearly what to do in this situation.
The notifications in my app work in an unusual way. The user chooses one of around 30 options, and then depending on his choice he receives appropriate push notification.
So I've written a script that sends his choice to the firebase database and that is where his token is required so a javascript server connected to firebase could send him the push.
I hope I made it clear, and that that the solution wasn't covered previously on this forum. I'm still a beginner so a detailed solution or some suggestions would be really appreciated.
To implement notifications in Xamarin forms, you should do it on each platform(iOS and Android)and install Nuget packages to each platform.
Create a Xamarin.forms project name MyApp(Use this Name as an Example).
Right Click on the MyApp.Android(This is important, not MyApp) ---> Manage NuGet Packages
You should install these packages in Android Project:
(1). Xamarin.GooglePlayServices.Base
(2). Xamarin.Firebase.Messaging
Right Click on the MyApp.iOS(This is important, not MyApp) ---> Manage NuGet Packages
You should install these packages in iOS Project:
(1). Xamarin.Firebase.iOS.CloudMessaging
You can follow this article for more detail :firebase-cloud-messaging.
We want to transfer data from instant app to installed app using Cookie API. Cookie API needs to have a play services version 11.4.0 or more. It works on lollipop, marshmallow and Oreo devices but crashes on Nought devices only showing following exception.
java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke interface method 'void android.app.job.IJobScheduler.cancel(int)' on a null object reference.
It crashes when we use GoogleAnalytics.getInstance(getContext()) to get the Google Analytics Instance. But it works on all platforms except Nought.
I believe this is the same as this issue.
If that's the case, then this should fix it.
This is normally fixed in Google Play services for Instant Apps version 2.3. However, when you provision your device with Android Studio, you no longer receive OTA updates. You can check that from the version number (Android Studio provisioned version contains "sdk").
Try uninstalling Google Play services for Instant Apps. Then turn off Instant Apps and turn it on again. It should restore the final version (2.6-release), which contains the fix.
Deploying from the IDE will overwrite it still though.
So once it's updated, you can also remove the forced provision from the Edit Configuration dialog.
This was my issue with Firebase Analytics and I got the same error. So try that out and let me know if it helps.
I have been using FCM/GCM to send notifications to Chrome App, Chrome Extension, Android APP.
But, may I know how can I send notifications to an electron APP from FCM/GCM. I browsed through a lot of websites but did not find anything related to it.
PS: I don't worry about how the notifications are displayed. I just want the notification payload to be received by the electron app.
Thanks in advance.
There's nothing available out of the box with Electron but there is a Node package available here: https://www.npmjs.com/package/electron-push-receiver
There's no boilerplate code available for using this package yet, but there is an open issue in the associated GitHub project requesting a working example: https://github.com/MatthieuLemoine/electron-push-receiver/issues/8
