Where I can download new version of Microsoft.Azure.NotificationHubs supporting FCMV1?

Question

FCM V1 documentation point to RestApi gowever, we are using .net assembly for integration (Microsoft.Azure.NotificationHubs). Do we have an updated version of .net assembly instead of using rest Api directly?

@Sarvesh Gupta Thanks for asking question, Yes the .NET SDK was just published. Please refer to below onboarding steps-

How to onboard to FCM v1 through Azure notification hubs 

Steps to use FCM v1 to send push notifications to mobile apps via Azure notification hubs 

Android SDK 

Step 1. Update SDK Version 

Update the SDK version to “2.0.0-preview” in ‘build.gradle’ file of your application 

// This is not a complete build.gradle file, it only highlights the portions you'll need to update. 
 dependencies { 
    // Ensure the following line is updated in your app/library's "dependencies" section. 
    implementation 'com.microsoft.azure:notification-hubs-android-sdk:2.0.0-preview' 
    // optionally, use the fcm optimized SKU instead: 
    // implementation 'com.microsoft.azure:notification-hubs-android-sdk-fcm:2.0.0-preview' 
} 

Step 2. (Only if using Templates) Update Payload Template  Note: If you are not using templates, skip this step.  FCM V1 payload structure: REST Resource: projects.messages  |  Firebase Cloud Messaging REST API (google.com)  Migrating from FCM Legacy payload to FCM V1 payload: https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/migrate-v1#update-the-payload-of-send-requests    Example (if using Registrations): 

NotificationHub hub = new NotificationHub(BuildConfig.hubName, BuildConfig.hubListenConnectionString, context); 
 String template = "{\"message\":{\"android\":{\"data\":{\"message\":\"{'Notification Hub test notification: ' + $(myTextProp)}\"}}}}"; 
hub.registerTemplate(token, "template-name", template); 

 Example (if using Installations): 

InstallationTemplate testTemplate = new InstallationTemplate(); 
testTemplate.setBody("{\"message\":{\"android\":{\"data\":{\"message\":\"{'Notification Hub test notification: ' + $(myTextProp)}\"}}}}");  
NotificationHub.setTemplate("testTemplate", testTemplate); 
 

Server SDKs (Data Plane)  Step 1. Add FcmV1Credential to Hub  Note: This is a one-time setup. Unless you have a lot of hubs, and want to automate this step, you can simply use the REST API, or the Portal to add the FCM V1 Credential. 

// Creating new Notification Hub with FCM V1 Credentials 
var hub = new NotificationHubDescription("hubname"); 
hub.FcmV1Credential = new FcmV1Credential(“private-key", “project-id”, “client-email”); 
hub = await namespaceManager.CreateNotificationHubAsync(hub); 

// Updating existing Notification Hub with FCM V1 Credentials 
var hub = await namespaceManager.GetNotificationHubAsync("hubname", CancellationToken.None); 
hub.FcmV1Credential = new FcmV1Credential(“private-key", “project-id”, “client-email”); 
hub = await namespaceManager.UpdateNotificationHubAsync(hub, CancellationToken.None); 

  Step 2. Manage Registrations/Installations  For Registrations:  Use FcmV1RegistrationDescription to register FCM V1 devices 

// Create new Registration 
var deviceToken = "device-token"; var tags = new HashSet<string> { "tag1", "tag2" }; FcmV1RegistrationDescription registration = await hub. CreateFcmV1NativeRegistrationAsync(deviceToken, tags); 

 
For Installations:  Use `NotificationPlatform.FcmV1 ``` as the platform with Installation , or use ``` FcmV1Installation` to create FCM V1 Installations  

// Create new Installation 
var installation = new Installation 
{ 
    InstallationId = "installation-id", 
    PushChannel = "device-token", 
    Platform = NotificationPlatform.FcmV1 
}; 
await hubClient.CreateOrUpdateInstallationAsync(installation); 
// Alternatively, you can use the FcmV1Installation class directly 
var installation = new FcmV1Installation("installation-id", "device-token"); 
await hubClient.CreateOrUpdateInstallationAsync(installation); 

  Notes: 

• If the client app registers itself, then you need to update the Client app first to register under FCM V1 platform. 
• If the client app doesn't register itself, you can fetch all registrations/installations and migrate them all to FCM V1 on the server.  Step 3. Send Notification to FCM V1  Use ``` FcmV1Notification` `` while sending notifications to target FCM V1 

// Send FCM V1 Notification 
var jsonBody = "{\"message\":{\"android\":{\"data\":{\"message\":\"Notification Hub test notification\"}}}}"; var n = new FcmV1Notification(jsonBody); NotificationOutcome outcome = await hub.SendNotificationAsync(n, “tag”);
