Not able to send Notificaton

[sreenumalae]

Hello Everyone !!

I just hosted airnotifier (Version 3.X) in my azure virtual machine.
And i'm trying send a broadcast message from airnotifier.

• I created a app in Firebase and when i tried to send a notification using cloud message it works. It means my firebase and app are perfect

• In airnotifier i created a app and i gave project id and json key in Firebase Cloud Messaging settings.

• Then i tried to send a broadcast message and i didn't receive any.

Here is my JSON key
{
"type": "service_account",
"project_id": "",
"private_key_id": "",
"private_key": "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\n**********************\n-----END PRIVATE KEY-----\n",
"client_email": "@appspot.gserviceaccount.com",
"client_id": "***",
"auth_uri": "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth",
"token_uri": "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token",
"auth_provider_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs",
"client_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/robot/v1/metadata/x509/************%40appspot.gserviceaccount.com"
}

We have the same problem. Broadcast messages are not delivered.

Dear @contributors, is there really no solution to this problem?

Bump. Having the same issue.

What I've done so far:

VPS/SERVER SIDE:
Installed Python:
sudo apt-get install python3-pip build-essential git
pip3 install pipenv --user

Installed and started MongoDB:
https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-red-hat/
sudo systemctl unmask mongod
sudo service mongod start

Downloaded and ran Airnotifier:
cd ~
git clone -b master git://github.com/airnotifier/airnotifier.git airnotifier
cd airnotifier
pipenv install --deploy
mv config.py-sample config.py
sudo python3 -m pipenv run ./app.py

Created an App:
orgID = 0
Name of app = CHClassroom
Entered FCM Project ID and Json Key, APN and WNS empty.

Moodle Integration:
Airnotifier URL: https://[my_airnotifier_ip_addr]
Airnotifier Port: 8801
Mobile app name: com.ch.moodlemobile
Airnotifier app name: CHClassroom
Airnotifier Access Key: generated an access key with all permissions given, and pasted it into the airnotifier access key field in Moodle.

APP SIDE:
Building the App:
Downloaded https://github.com/moodlehq/moodleapp/tree/integration
Changed the App name
Changed the App id
Changed the siteurl
Build using -> ionic cordova build android
Run using -> npm run dev:android
App successfully executed and I'm able to log in

Testing Airnotifier:
Went to broadcast, and entered a message
Clicked sent
No notifications, no logs, no tokens.

Only thing that worked was to directly send broadcasts through Cloud Messaging from Firebase.

Any help is appreciated.

Edit: Turns out there was a https parameter that was commented in config.py, as I am using https I'm thinking that's the reason why it's not sending anything. I'll try and update once I set the https parameters.

Still having the same issue, even though my website isn't using https.

I think I had the same issue and this is what I have found:

1. I set up my Firebase account
2. I added an app and created the corresponding web page (self hosted) using the 'getting started' tutorial on github.
3. Once I got all the settings correct, the page was displaying my Registration Token.
4. I set up AirNotifier with my Firebase json file.
5. I tried broadcast and nothing happened.
6. Then I found this issue while searching for a solution.
7. Next I tried sending a message to my browser page with the registration token that it was displaying:

curl -XPOST -H 'Accept: application/json' -H 'X-AN-APP-NAME: apptest' -H 'X-AN-APP-KEY: My App key from AirNotifier' -H "Content-type: application/json" -d '{
    "device": "fcm",
    "token": "The registration token from the test page",
    "alert": "Hello from AirNotifier",
    "sound": "Submarine.aiff",
    "badge": 1
}' 'http://localhost:8801/api/v2/push'

This worked.
8. Then I check in AirNotifier and saw that the token I used was now added to the list of tokens for the app.
9. Then I tried the broadcast again, and this time it worked.

So I think you can only broadcast to known devices, so tokens that is already known to AirNotifier.
