FCM with Postman - The request was missing an Authentication Key (FCM Token) - firebase

//body its like this
{
"to":
"/topics/NEWS"
,
"data":{
"extra_information": "This is some extra information"
},
//notification that i need to give
"notification":{
"title": "ChitChat Group",
"text": "You may have new messages",
"click_action":"ChatActivity"
}
}

The 401 error pertains that your Authorization Key is invalid or incorrect.
When using Postman, add a key= prefix for the value of Authorization, like so:
key=AAA...
See below for a tutorial on Sending Downstream FCM Messages using Postman.
Also, for your notification message payload, text isn't one of the valid parameters, I think you were looking for message instead.
Sending Downstream Messages using Postman
To do this in Postman, you simply have to set the following:
Set request type to POST
In the Headers, set the following:
Content-Type = application/json
Authorization = < Your FCM Server Key > (See your Firebase Console's Cloud Messaging Tab)
Set the payload parameters in the Body (*in this example, we used the raw option, see screenshot (2)*)
Send the request to https://fcm.googleapis.com/fcm/send
Screenshots:
(1)
Note: Always keep your Server Key a secret. Only a portion of my key is visible here so it should be fine.

Notice that the request was a success with the message_id in the response.

Wrong:
Authorization:AIzaSyDDk77PRpvfhh......
Correct:
Authorization:key=AIzaSyDDk77PRpvfhh......
Full example:
https://fcm.googleapis.com/fcm/send
Content-Type:application/json
Authorization:key=AIzaSyZ-1u...0GBYzPu7Udno5aA
{ "data": {
"score": "5x1",
"time": "15:10"
},
"to" : "bk3RNwTe3H0:CI2k_HHwgIpoDKCIZvvDMExUdFQ3P1..."
}

While the answers above are still correct, you may choose to use HTTP v1. This requires Bearer instead of key= and uses an Oauth2 access token instead of a server key string. To view HTTP v1 specifications, please refer to the link below:
https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/migrate-v1

I was also getting same error in PHP , solved with below header :
$header = array("authorization: key=" . $this->apiKey . "","content-type: application/json");

HTTP request - error "Missing header 'UUID'"

I've made a HTTP request by using Postman.
Method:POST.
Body (json) :
{
"value1" : ["1-JH"],
"value2": ["Test"],
"value3": true
}
But there is an error. Do you know how to fix it?
"message": "Missing header 'UUID'"
Difficult to guess the exact thing, without knowing more details about your API.
But you can set headers in Postman via the "Headers" tab:

Delete all users from the new firebase auth emulator

I'm playing around with the new firebase auth emulator (on the node admin SDK), and have made some tests that run perfectly if I manually delete the created users between each test, but I can't seem to automatically delete them?
I've used the endpoint defined here in my beforeEach(), but I get an "Response code 401, unauthorized" back from the response call?
Endpoint: delete: http://localhost:9099/emulator/v1/projects/{project-id}/accounts
I just tried using Postman to send the call, and it responded with the following:
{
"error": {
"code": 401,
"message": "Request is missing required authentication credential. Expected OAuth 2 access token, login cookie or other valid authentication credential. See https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/web/devconsole-project.",
"errors": [
{
"message": "Login Required.",
"domain": "global",
"reason": "required",
"location": "Authorization",
"locationType": "header"
}
],
"status": "UNAUTHENTICATED"
}
}
The URL in the error didn't seem to give me much help beyond adding a google button to a web app, which pointed me to creating an OAuth2 web account. I entered the localhost:9099 into my existing one, but don't know where I should use the client ID and the client secret? If they are what I should use at all.
I know I need some sort of Authorization header for the delete call, but I just don't get what I should put in that header, or how.
Thank you for any insight into this.
Edit: I've now tried the following Authorization headers:
"admin"
"" (an empty string)
The full token generated by firebase.options.credential.getAccessToken()
The access_token field of the above token
The id_token field of the above token.
The token itself looks like this (redacted some fields):
{
"access_token":
"[access token string here]",
"expires_in": 3599,
"scope":
"openid https://www.googleapis.com/auth/firebase https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloudplatformprojects.readonly",
"token_type": "Bearer",
"id_token":
"[id token string here]"
}
Thanks! However, I wanted using this with a curl format to get this on a npm script, so here is what I used:
curl -H 'Authorization: Bearer owner' -X DELETE http://localhost:9099/emulator/v1/projects/<projectid>/accounts
the response should be:
{}
I figured it out! When the admin generates a token, I use the access_token field part of this token and add the header Authorization: 'Bearer' + access_token to the delete request. Thanks for the help.
(This is an emulator-only endpoint)
Edit: I could just use the string "owner" as the token... Took me a while to get that, but now it works.

how to push notification from postman to firebase?

I'm Trying to push notification from postman to firebase for testing
I posted using documentation tips and response is success but nothing sent to my android device .. I tested my code using debugging and firebase console and it working well but when i used postman nothing happens
This is my posting format
http://fcm.googleapis.com/fcm/send
Content-Type : application/json
Authorization: key=AAAAitv2sYo:APA91bENlw37p5pa7pMIKoVv8CroevA7tK3tVFNGUchhGf_zkeKVFdQeYcKQmxsg-2ZOkNHMAvloRjTugmZHzNBa_TLMR2_7lffglJvrKHT1TNixHxtXZimWi2f7c16M2M7ic2S5g1gC

}
i used authorization and to is the same key " server key "
and the response is

}
]
}
Note : When i write https posting is failed and got Could not get any
response error when i made it http it get the above response
another question .. can i see the sent message in firebase console ?
The Authorization key in the header and the to property in the message have different purposes and are never the same value.
The Authorization key validates your request to the Firebase server. Its value is the "Server key" shown in the Cloud Messaging tab of your Project settings at the Firebase console.
The message to value is the registration ID of the device to which you are sending the message. It is obtained from a call to a client-side SDK.

Access token request results in 302 in Angular HttpClient

I'm trying to authenticate requests for WordPress rest-api using grant type password. OAuth2 authentication in WordPress is provided by WP OAuth Server plugin.
When I request access token using Postman Chrome app the server responds with expected access token object but the similar request doesn't work in Angular. It gives status 302 and due to xhr redirect to login page, I'm not able to get access token object. I'm using Angular 5.
Here's how I request access token in Angular:
/* Example token url
AuthProvider.TOKEN_URL:
https://www.example-wordpress.com/oauth/token
*/
const body = {
grant_type: 'password',
username: username,
password: password,
};
const headers = new HttpHeaders()
.set('Authorization', 'Basic ' + btoa(AuthProvider.CLIENT_ID + ':' + AuthProvider.CLIENT_SECRET));
this.http.post(AuthProvider.TOKEN_URL, body, { headers: headers });
The above request produces 302 with location header set to:
https://www.example-wordpress.com/login/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.example-wordpress.com%2Foauth%2Ftoken
And then a xhr GET request is made to above location which responds with HTML of login page and hence no access token is obtained.
The similar POST request for access token in Postman works fine and results in expected access token object but I can't get it to work in Angular.
EDIT
While debugging I generated JavaScript code for access token request from Postman and pasted in console of Chrome after importing jQuery.
The request works as expected in console as well and no redirection occurs. The response is JSON with access token.
Here's the code Postman generated for the POST request:
var settings = {
"async": true,
"crossDomain": true,
"url": "https://example-wordpress.com/oauth/token",
"method": "POST",
"headers": {
"content-type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded",
"authorization": "Basic M0wzakE3d080VmxxbXB0UUF1dUI5RkxicWxmeE8yR25Zdk4xQmxvbTp4TktTYnJ1Mno5cEp2VDFMbTNGNFhEQm10eDZzUGsya1FqZDg3VmQ2",
"cache-control": "no-cache",
"postman-token": "46339abe-2d1a-1032-f5d8-36e3193d9a81"
},
"data": {
"grant_type": "password",
"username": "my-username",
"password": "my-password",
"client_id": "3L3jA7wO4VlqmptQAuuB9FLbqlfxO2GnYvN1Blom",
"client_secret": "xNKSbru2z9pJvT1Lm3F4XDBmtx6sPk2kQjd87Vd6"
}
}
$.ajax(settings).done(function (response) {
console.log(response);
});
And here's the response logged from above code:
{
access_token: "rksen3p351fj0povsrpfv2eeuahrciglc3ilphhy",
expires_in: 3600,
token_type: "Bearer",
scope: "basic",
refresh_token: "fudju8tecbnwly2e1xgfv92tykvpsniwkfpvrd7d"
}
I'm unable to figure out why redirection occurs when we request through Angular and not responds with access token JSON.
Any help is appreciated.
access_token (which I imagine is what you expect to have) isn't part of the few headers that Angular is able to read without setting up your server.
Angular only read "basic" headers such as Content-type. This is because of the default CORS configuration that only reads Cache-Control, Content-Language, Content-Type, Expires, Last-Modified and Pragma. When it comes to custom headers, you have to tell your server to expose the headers.
This is done through the Access-Control-Expose-Headers header.
There was no problem at all. It was a very very silly mistake. I apologize.
I was testing with two websites simultaneously and both had similar configuration. The only difference was that one had OAuth plugin installed and other not. So when I tried to authorize the request from Angular with the website which hadn't had OAuth2 plugin installed and so redirected to the login page. The constant set for the AuthProvider.TOKEN_URL was incorrectly set, while when I was testing with other tools I was using correct url.
Anyway, this was all my mistake. It happens sometimes, when you don't take break. :)

Request is missing required authentication credential

I am trying to send FCM message through POSTMAN. I have added the server key, the one from cloud messaging in settings of firebase console.
What is missing here?
The example in the documentation for authorizing HTTP v1 send requests shows the Authorization header value starts with Bearer not key=:
headers: {
'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + accessToken
}
You should change format of you requests.
More info here: https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/send-message#send_messages_using_the_legacy_app_server_protocols
If you prefer to use the legacy protocols, build message requests as shown in this section. Keep in mind that, if you are sending to multiple platforms via HTTP, the v1 protocol can simplify your message requests.
HTTP POST request
https://fcm.googleapis.com/fcm/send
Content-Type:application/json
Authorization:key=AIzaSyZ-1u...0GBYzPu7Udno5aA
{ "data": {
"score": "5x1",
"time": "15:10"
},
"to" : "bk3RNwTe3H0:CI2k_HHwgIpoDKCIZvvDMExUdFQ3P1..."
}
Use following:
link: https://fcm.googleapis.com/fcm/send
"Authorization" "key=" + server key
Body
{
"to" : "/topics/carriers",
"notification" : {
"body" : "This message came from Server!",
"title" : "FROM POSTMAN"
}
}
for me this is the only configuration that works
