Push Notifications

To configure chat notifications, you will need to do the following configuration per platform

iOS

Inside your AppDelegate.swift import the ChatSDK as

import ChatProvidersSDK

Add the following method

  override func application(
    _ application: UIApplication, 
    didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken deviceToken: Data
  ) {
      // You might already have this if you are using firebase messaging
      // Messaging.messaging().apnsToken = deviceToken  
      
      Chat.registerPushToken(deviceToken)
  }
Android

Using FCM messaging, get your FCM token and register it as follows:

Zendesk2Chat zChat = Zendesk2Chat.instance;
await zChat.registerFCMToken(fcmToken);

(calling this function has no effect on iOS)

To display the notifications, you will need to register your own FirebaseMessagingService as a service inside the application. You can follow the Firebase Android Docs for this. An example file that you can copy and customize can be found in the main github repo. Overally you will add the file to your application and register the service as follows:

<service
    android:name="{your package name}"
    android:stopWithTask="false">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="com.google.firebase.MESSAGING_EVENT" />
    </intent-filter>
</service>
