Notifications tracking when using FCM

Question

Is it possible to track the notification status, whether it was opened or canceled by the user, when I send a push notification without using firebase services dashboard?

I am using Advanced REST client and I would like to record data about the notifications status when sending payload to https://fcm.googleapis.com/fcm/send

Answer 1

Conversion tracking is only built into Firebase Notifications. I don't think we have a public API to feed into those charts.

But if you send your messages through Firebase Cloud Messaging, you could:

1. record the conversion events in your app by calling Firebase Analytics explicitly
2. record more details about the converting user in your Firebase Database

You could easily accomplish the same type of functionality that way.
