Firebase Push Notification Tutorial

Firebase serves as a module between your server and the devices that will be receiving the push notifications that you create. Your server informs Firebase that a notification has to be sent. Then Firebase does the work behind the scenes to get the notification published.

Step for creating Firebase Project

Step 1: Open Firebase console

Step 2: Click on Add project and give name to your project and select country. If you have already created a project skip this step.

Step 3: Then select “Add Firebase to your Android app”.

Step 4: Add project package id or application id and genrate SHA-1 signatature of your machine.

Step 5: Download google-service.json and put into app module.

1. Open your project into Android studio.
2. Click on Gradle tab on right side.
3. Collapse :app module -> Tasks -> Android -> signing report.
4. SHA-1 will generate. Copy and paste into SHA-1 in firebase console.

Step 1:

Add below code into <project>/build.gradle file.

buildscript {
  dependencies {
    // Add this line
    classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.2'
  }
}

Step 2:

Add below code into <project> / <app>/build.gradle.

dependencies {
  // Add this line
  implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:20.0.0'
}
...
// Add to the bottom of the file
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

Step 3:
