Support of Azure Notification Hubs’ Firebase Cloud Messaging legacy API will be retired by 1 July 2024

Question

I am using ASP.NET Core Web API to send push notifications to Android and iOS devices using the method given below. I am not using any API endpoint directly. Should I change anything in this?

 string jsonPayLoad = string.Empty;
                            //if (hubNotification.DeviceType.ToLower().Equals("ios.") || hubNotification.DeviceType.ToLower().Contains("iphone") || hubNotification.DeviceType.ToLower().Contains("ipad"))// For sending to iOS
                            //{

                            NotificationOutcome outcome;
                            if (hubNotification.DeviceType.ToLower().Contains("android"))
                            {
                             //   var registeredNewDevice = hub.CreateGcmNativeRegistrationAsync(hubNotification.DeviceId.Replace("-", ""), new[] { hubNotification.ToUserEmail }).Result;
                                var registeredNewDevice = hub.CreateGcmNativeRegistrationAsync(hubNotification.DeviceId, new[] { hubNotification.ToUserEmail }).Result;
                                //Silent Notification
                                jsonPayLoad = "{ \"data\": " +
                                "{" +
                                 "\"content-available\":" + 1 + "," +
                                "\"sound\":\"\"," +
                                 "\"notificationType\": \"" + hubNotification.NotificationType + "\"," +
                                "\"type\":\"sendfriend\"}}";                             

                                outcome = hub.SendGcmNativeNotificationAsync(jsonPayLoad, hubNotification.ToUserEmail).Result;

@Vijay Pratap Singh Apologies for late response! I discussed your scenario internally with PG and you would need to use FCM v1. The code shows that you are still using GCM. The JSON payload needs to be updated to FCM v1.
