TL;DR How do I send interactive notifications through Expo’s Push API
Please provide the following:
- SDK Version: 40
- Platforms(Android/iOS/web/all): All
Using the following code and I have created a category and using getNotificationCategoriesAsync
, confirmed its existence.
import Constants from "expo-constants";
import * as Notifications from "expo-notifications";
// Set up Category
Notifications.setNotificationCategoryAsync("basic", [
{ identifier: "Yes", buttonTitle: "Yes 😀" },
{ identifier: "No", buttonTitle: "No 😕" },
])
// Check category is there
Notifications.getNotificationCategoriesAsync().then((categories) => {
console.log(categories)});
// Get experienceId
experienceId = Constants.manifest.id;
console.log(experienceId);
On the API side, I have used the request below and replaced @username/appName
with what was logged above (experienceId). I have tried this with real devices and simulators for both ios and android and even though the notification does send, it is missing the interactive aspect.
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST "https://exp.host/--/api/v2/push/send" -d '{
"to": "ExponentPushToken[XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX]",
"title":"hello",
"body": "world",
"_category":"@username/appName:basic",
}'
I have also tried replacing “_category” with “categoryId” or “categoryIdentifier” or “category”. None of which has worked. Has anyone been able to successfully do this! If so how! Thanks in advance
