Firebase Cloud Messaging deprecation

Google has announced that they are deprecating their legacy Google Firebase Cloud Messaging APIs,
culminating in a full removal of this functionality after June 20, 2024.
Symplify has made the transition to the new v1 API but in order to start using this you need to make an adjustment by connecting a private key.

This how it's done:

1. Create a private key in Firebase

Login to your Firebase console and go to the settings of the project in use. Find your way to "Service accounts" and click on Generate new private key. As you accept to the terms you will get a download file with your key.

2. Add the Private Key in Symplify

Login to your Symplify account and find your way to Account settings > (Channels) Push.

Open up your connected app to edit by clicking the name and paste the content of your downloaded file into the field "Service account" and you're done!


 

3. Test

Make sure to verify the new setup by sending some test messages from Symplify to your app.
