How to Send Push Notification from Xamarin Form app? - xamarin.forms

Hi I am new to Xamarin forms App development. I recently set up Push Notifications through App center & Firebase. This allows me to send push notifications through their console. However Is there Library or Nuget Package By which I can send These Push notifications through .NET? i.e Send a push notification through my C# Code.
Preferably not using Web Request etc.

React Native Push notification In Chat Application

Currently, I'm building one chat application using react native amplify, it works fine when both users are online and are on the same screen ( stack screen to be specific ), I'm able to show push notifications to users for the new message using a react-native-push-notification package (local push notification).
I want to extend this functionality for app running in the background (similar to Whatsapp) and show push notifications if any new message comes for the user. I attempt to do so using FCM service, but found it's might not be best for messaging, and mostly used for campaigns.
Any better idea, how to do this?
You can take a look at react-native-push-notification and OneSignal libraries

Disable App Center Push in UWP

I have integrated the Microsoft App Center push notification feature in one of my UWP apps. Now I'd like to let the user decide if he wants to receive push notifications or not.
According to the SDK I can Enable or disable App Center Push at runtime, but this will not actually disable anything...
disabling the App Center Push in the SDK will NOT stop your application from receiving push notifications.
So, is there even anything I can do?
Can't seem to find the exact solution but would like to offer the following workarounds:
App Center allows to create Audiences to target different segments of app users when sending push notifications. You could create an Audience for those who don't want to receive push notifications and simply avoid them when sending the pushes.
There's a way to unregister for push notifications sent from Dev Center. If you used the later instead of App Center to send notifications your problem would be solved.
To get pushes from App Center it's required that an app calls AppCenter.Start(...) method on start-up. What if it doesn't?

Receive push notification with APP closed (iOS)

Hello fellow Xamarin developers,
We are developing an APP that should receive push notification, even with APP closed.
I am receiving notifications when the APP is open or in the background, but after restarting the device the notifications are not received.
Note:
I read the content of the page https://developer.apple.com/reference/uikit/uiapplicationdelegate
I added in Info.plist: UIBackgroundModes / remote-notification
Overwrote the methods: RegisteredForRemoteNotifications, ReceivedRemoteNotification and DidReceiveRemoteNotification
Any tips? Can I actually receive notifications after rebooting the device? I would need to create some service to register the device (In Android was necessary to create the service, in Windows-UWP No)?
Thank you very much!
I following this tutorial and it's working for me perfect

How to send one signal notification from asp.net webapi to ionic app

I'm developing android and iOS application using cordova ionic and I include one signal notification as a feature in my app.
I register onesignal and test to push notification. It's work well.
Now I want to send onesignal notification from asp.net web api to perticular user.
I have tried this url but I failed. Also i am unable to get device token in my app.
Thank you.
You need to call window.plugins.OneSignal.getIds and store ids.userId from the callback.
You can then make a POST call to the https://onesignal.com/api/v1/notifications endpoint from your ASP.NET code setting the include_player_ids to the userId retrieved from your app.
There is an ASP.NET example towards the bottom of the endpoint documentation page listed below.

Xamarin Push Notifications Using Azure Notifications Hub
implemented Push Notifications in awesome Xamarin.Forms
Most of sample is using azure service. I do not use that one. The back end team will manage to send notification to device. I just need to pass token of notification and handle the given notification at my end.
I got one plugin for Push Notification but cannot find a sample or some useful code for how to use or implement it.
