The Push Notifications Guide for Ionic & Capacitor

Hello Simon, getting this : Module '"@capacitor/core"' has no exported member 'PushNotification' could you suggest about it ?

Yes, since Capacitor all the plugins are in their own package, so now it's "npm install @capacitor/push-notifications"

Hi Simon thanks for the Tutorial. I've had a few issues with this on Cap 3 I've changed all the imports to fall in line with the updated Capacitor spec, i get a token, but never receive messages on iOS, all the apple certs seem fine ( tried using p12s and just the key file, and both at same time ) no matter what i try, nothing comes in

Did this work for you before Cap 3?

[@pauldean9146]

@@galaxies_dev honestly, this is the first time using Firebase, I was using OneSignal until i started a new project where Firebase looked like a shiny new route to take rather than OneSignal from an implementation perspective it seems much simpler then OneSignal, so I never actually got to try on Pre-Cap-3 projects. BUT - having had a fiddle with it, it seems that I had two Firebase projects running and I was trying to deploy notifications from the wrong platform... coz I'm basically an idiot with a tight deadline.. - Thanks for the videos Simon, your content really helps me.

Fantastic tutorial man! Can you make some video about send notifications by ionic?

[@ciprian-danielturca3067]

Hi, and thank you for the tutorial! Sometimes the "pushNotificationActionPerformed" listener is not triggered. When the app is closed, after we get a notification, the app is open and the listener is working fine. When the application is in the background and we open a notification, the listener is not triggered. In most cases it works even when the application is in the background. But sometimes it's not triggered, and we don't know what can be the problem . Do you have any idea or suggestion why sometimes the listener it’s not triggered? Any help would be great. The problem occured when app rest in background for longer time (a day for example). Thank you!

[@kennedystephen]

@Simon - if we make changes directly to platform files (under ios and android), wouldn't that mean we'd have to keep those folders under source control as well?

[@GreenWebSevilla]

Great and easy tutorial! How can we get the token on Android to test the push notifications?

[@ryanholton961]

Great tutorial! A few questions... 1. I want to send out custom notifications based on a schedule that a user can select from within an app 2. How could I get a notification to trigger automatically based on an API? For instance, I want to send a notification to an individual Firebase account based on the data that user has requested to see notifications for? 3. Are persistent notifications possible? What happens if a user’s phone restarts or their app updates

[@galaxies_dev]

You need to handle the logic on your backend for scheduling. So you would have to schedule some kind of job to send out the push in the future, depending on your choice of backend (a cron job, or scheduled inside Firebase cloud functions - many possibilities) What you mean by persistent? Whenever you receive a push you can store the data if you need to access it later, otherwise the information is gone anyway, and a restart or update isn't all that different then!

[@kayodeolaniyi3566]

Thank you for this, I was able to get it running on android, hope to test IOS soon. God willing

[@paulrackwitz4553]

Hi Simon, thank you for the tutorial! If have an issue with the router push to the detail page: when the app is closed in the background and gets opened with a push by id, the router push is not working and only the app (startpage) opens.

[@galaxies_dev]

Sounds strange, but maybe Angular is not yet ready to run the router? Or is there any log in the console?

[@paulrackwitz4553]

@@galaxies_dev actually i cannot test push notifications when the app is build over the simulator or a plugged in device, so i have no console information to debug. I think the problem is, that the app first needs to start and then sets the listeners for the pushNotificationActionPerformed afterwards which is too late to perform the router push..

Thank you Simon. You are the best. ActionPerformed event doesn't fire if the app was killed, so when user tap on notification iOS just open my app and I unable to retrieve additional payload data (detailId) for open proper detail page. How can I mange this issue?

[@davidruiz6689]

I have the same issue. I checked the Capacitor docs and says "This plugin does support data-only notifications, but will NOT call pushNotificationReceived if the app has been killed. To handle this scenario, you will need to create a service that extends FirebaseMessagingService, see Handling FCM Messages." and that redirect to Firebase docs and explains to create a service but it is in Java or Kotlin, but nothing about Ionic/Angular, so it's really confusing and I don't know what to do to resolve the issue

[@sicollins935]

Great tutorial Simon - helped me out a lot. Couple of burning questions I'm trying to find answers for: 1. If user turns off Push Notifications through the OS app settings is there an event we can listen for, so we can then revoke the push token on our backend system? 2. Is there an event we can listen for when a user clears the Notification without tapping on it when app is in background? i.e. so we can then clear badge count. 3. Can you point me in the right direction for getting Push analytics working through Firebase? Thanks

[@galaxies_dev]

1) No not that I know of. But your backend will receive an error when sending the push I think, perhaps you can handle it from there. 2) Also never saw an event for that, but you could query them from within the app to see if they were removed: capacitorjs.com/docs/apis/push-notifications#getdeliverednotifications 3) Haven't used that before :/

That was a great tutorial. But seems like `pushNotificationActionPerformed` no longer is triggered for android emulator. I can't get it to work and seems like people have had issues with this.

[@Martin-kj1od]

Great tutorial. I would like to ask what is the correct way to handle token refresh. The token gets outdated in time right ? Is is correct way to register for push notification every time user logs in and then compare the token with the one stored in database and update it if it differs ?

[@galaxies_dev]

The device token should mostly be unique and won't get invalid, it's not like a JWT. Also, there is no way to "unregister" so you would have to manually remove the information from Firebase where you stored it. You can read more about the topic in this discussion: github.com/ionic-team/capacitor/issues/1777

[@jared4670]

Well nobody replied to my question a year ago and now I have encountered another issue after nearly two years of using Ioninc Push Notificaitons. The Token is now expired and there are no methods within the Ionic docs to perform a token refresh.

[@mschannel829]

Hello Simon. Your videos are great. I followed the steps of your tutorial and I could receive Android messages, however in iOS 13 I dont receive any message. I think that my iOS configuration is right because the App obtains a token, and also, because when I set up Firebase I connected the App and I receved a notification (in firebase platform), saying that the connection with the device was successfull or the configutation was right. Do you know, whether there are Problems to integrate Push Notifications in iOS13? thank you!

Thanks Sandro! 1) I'm actually not sure. For example iOS push basically goes through Apple servers before reaching your phone - guess that won't even be possible in your case :/ 2) You could use web push probably, but at least for iOS this won't work inside a PWA (only Android right now), but same like before not sure if that would even be possible..

You can either toggle this in the device settings then or remove the FCM ID your previously stored for that user!

[@jared4670]

Save the FCM token along with is_notifications_enabled: boolean for example to your server-side database. That way when you loop through the array of users, you do a check first to see if their push notifications are enabled. If they aren't, then you skip that user.

[@Raffzahn12]

Great Video! How would you handle routing to a details page if you need to perform some logic upon starting the application (authentication for example)?

[@galaxies_dev]

Good question. You could manually perform an authentication check in the push handling event and then route once the authentication is done. If this can't be done in the background and you need user input on login, perhaps store the push information inside a service (or local storage) and then check this value after every login to see if you have any "stored" events that you need to handle!
