Firebase (FCM) how to get token

Question

It`s my first to use FCM.

I download a sample from firebase/quickstart-android and I install the FCM Quickstart.But I can`t get any token from the log even hit the LOG TOKEN button in the app.

Then I try to send message with Firebase console and set to target to my app package name.I got any incoming message.

I want to know can FCM be used?GCM everything is ok.

Solution:

Because I am not a Android developer,just a backend developer.So it takes me some time to solve it.In my opinion,there`re some bug in the sample app.

Code：

RegistrationIntentService.java

public class RegistrationIntentService extends IntentService {

    private static final String TAG = "RegIntentService";


    public RegistrationIntentService() {
        super(TAG);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onHandleIntent(Intent intent) {
        String token = FirebaseInstanceId.getInstance().getToken();
        Log.i(TAG, "FCM Registration Token: " + token);
    }
}

MyFirebaseInstanceIDService.java

public class MyFirebaseInstanceIDService extends FirebaseInstanceIdService {

    private static final String TAG = "MyFirebaseIIDService";

    /**
     * Called if InstanceID token is updated. This may occur if the security of
     * the previous token had been compromised. Note that this is called when the InstanceID token
     * is initially generated so this is where you would retrieve the token.
     */
    // [START refresh_token]
    @Override
    public void onTokenRefresh() {
        // Get updated InstanceID token.
//        String refreshedToken = FirebaseInstanceId.getInstance().getToken();
//        Log.d(TAG, "Refreshed token: " + refreshedToken);
//
//        // TODO: Implement this method to send any registration to your app's servers.
//        sendRegistrationToServer(refreshedToken);
//
        Intent intent = new Intent(this, RegistrationIntentService.class);
        startService(intent);
    }
    // [END refresh_token]

    /**
     * Persist token to third-party servers.
     * <p>
     * Modify this method to associate the user's FCM InstanceID token with any server-side account
     * maintained by your application.
     *
     * @param token The new token.
     */
    private void sendRegistrationToServer(String token) {
        // Add custom implementation, as needed.
    }
}

Add this in the MainActivity.java.

 Intent intent = new Intent(this, RegistrationIntentService.class);
        startService(intent);

After do above，you can get the Token in logcat.But finally I find a convenient way to get it.Just use debug mode to install the sample app and you can get the token when you first time to install it.

But I dont why it cant print the log when I install it.Maybe be related to mobile system.

And then why I can`t get the Notification. FirebaseMessagingService.onMessageReceived did not call sendNotification

Answer 1

for those who land here, up to now FirebaseInstanceIdService is deprecated now, use instead:

public class MyFirebaseMessagingService extends FirebaseMessagingService {
    @Override
    public void onNewToken(String token) {
        Log.d("MY_TOKEN", "Refreshed token: " + token);

        // If you want to send messages to this application instance or
        // manage this apps subscriptions on the server side, send the
        // Instance ID token to your app server.
        // sendRegistrationToServer(token);
    }
}

and declare in AndroidManifest

<application... >

<service android:name=".fcm.MyFirebaseMessagingService">
    <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="com.google.firebase.MESSAGING_EVENT" />
    </intent-filter>
</service>
</application>

Answer 2

At the same time don not forget to include this in your manifest file to receive token id

<service
    android:name=".MyFirebaseInstanceIDService">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="com.google.firebase.INSTANCE_ID_EVENT"/>
    </intent-filter>
</service>

Answer 3

Settings.Secure.getString(getContentResolver(),
                     Settings.Secure.ANDROID_ID);
