Google Firebase Cloud Messaging migration using Azure SDKs

  • Artikkeli

Google will deprecate the Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) legacy API by July 2024. You can begin migrating from the legacy HTTP protocol to FCM v1 on March 1, 2024. You must complete the migration by June 2024. This section describes the steps to migrate from FCM legacy to FCM v1 using the Azure SDKs.

Important

As of June 2024, FCM legacy APIs will no longer be supported and will be retired. To avoid any disruption in your push notification service, you must migrate to the FCM v1 protocol as soon as possible.

Prerequisites

  • Ensure that Firebase Cloud Messaging API (V1) is enabled in Firebase project setting under Cloud Messaging.
  • Ensure that FCM credentials are updated. Follow step 1 in the REST API guide.

Android SDK

  1. Update the SDK version to 2.0.0 in the build.gradle file of your application. For example:

    // This is not a complete build.gradle file; it only highlights the portions you 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' 
    // optionally, use the fcm optimized SKU instead: 
    // implementation 'com.microsoft.azure:notification-hubs-android-sdk-fcm:2.0.0' 
}

  2. Update the payload template. If you're not using templates, you can skip this step.

    See the FCM REST reference for the FCM v1 payload structure. For information about migrating from the FCM legacy payload to the FCM v1 payload, see Update the payload of send requests.

    For example, if you're 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);

    If you're 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)

  1. Update the SDK package to the latest version (4.2.0):

    SDK GitHub name SDK package name Version
    azure-notificationhubs-dotnet Microsoft.Azure.NotificationHubs 4.2.0
    azure-notificationhubs-java-backend com.windowsazure.Notification-Hubs-java-sdk 1.1.0
    azure-sdk-for-js @azure/notification-hubs 1.1.0

    For example, in the .csproj file:

    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Azure.NotificationHubs" Version="4.2.0" />

  2. Add the FcmV1Credential to the notification hub. This step is a one-time setup. Unless you have many hubs, and want to automate this step, you can use the REST API or the Azure portal to add the FCM v1 credentials:

    // Create 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); 

// Update 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);

    // Create new notification hub with FCM V1 credentials
NamespaceManager namespaceManager = new NamespaceManager(namespaceConnectionString);
NotificationHubDescription hub = new NotificationHubDescription("hubname");
hub.setFcmV1Credential(new FcmV1Credential("private-key", "project-id", "client-email"));
hub = namespaceManager.createNotificationHub(hub);

// Updating existing Notification Hub with FCM V1 Credentials
NotificationHubDescription hub = namespaceManager.getNotificationHub("hubname");
hub.setFcmV1Credential(new FcmV1Credential("private-key", "project-id", "client-email"));
hub = namespaceManager.updateNotificationHub(hub);

  3. Manage registrations and installations. For registrations, use FcmV1RegistrationDescription to register FCM v1 devices. For example:

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

    For Java, use FcmV1Registration to register FCMv1 devices:

    // Create new registration
NotificationHub client = new NotificationHub(connectionString, hubName);
FcmV1Registration registration =  client.createRegistration(new FcmV1Registration("fcm-device-token"));

    For JavaScript, use createFcmV1RegistrationDescription to register FCMv1 devices:

    // Create FCM V1 registration
const context = createClientContext(connectionString, hubName);
const registration = createFcmV1RegistrationDescription({
  fcmV1RegistrationId: "device-token",
});
const registrationResponse = await createRegistration(context, registration);

    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);

    For Java, use NotificationPlatform.FcmV1 as the platform:

    // Create new installation
NotificationHub client = new NotificationHub(connectionString, hubName);
client.createOrUpdateInstallation(new Installation("installation-id", NotificationPlatform.FcmV1, "device-token"));

    For JavaScript, use createFcmV1Installation to create an FCMv1 installation:

    // Create FCM V1 installation
const context = createClientContext(connectionString, hubName);
const installation = createFcmV1Installation({
  installationId: "installation-id",
  pushChannel: "device-token",
});
const result = await createOrUpdateInstallation(context, installation);

    Note the following considerations:

    • If the device registration happens on the client app, update the client app first to register under the FCMv1 platform.
    • If the device registration happens on the server, you can fetch all registrations/installations and update them to FCMv1 on the server.

  4. Send the notification to FCMv1. Use FcmV1Notification when you send notifications that target FCMv1. For example:

    // 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");

    // Send FCM V1 Notification 
NotificationHub client = new NotificationHub(connectionString, hubName);
NotificationOutcome outcome = client.sendNotification(new FcmV1Notification("{\"message\":{\"android\":{\"data\":{\"message\":\"Notification Hub test notification\"}}}}"));

    // Send FCM V1 Notification
const context = createClientContext(connectionString, hubName);
const messageBody = `{
  "message": {
      "android": {
          "data": {
              "message": "Notification Hub test notification"
          }
      }
  }
}`;

const notification = createFcmV1Notification({
  body: messageBody,
});
const result = await sendNotification(context, notification);
