Hi All,

Tried to follow this lesson on livecode lessons, but i couldnt get it to work. I realise that GCM has been stopped for awhile and i cant follow exactly in the lesson plan. What should i do if i want to use push notifications in my app now. Any help would be appreciated.

Error=DeprecatedEndpoint

Thanks !

I found alternate sources in a Google search but they aren't specific to LC. Firebase is one but I don't know how you'd integrate that without help from the LC team.

Are the notifications required to come from the cloud? If local notifications are acceptable you can use those without requiring a cloud based system. I've only used notifications once and they were local to the device, it worked well.

Hello all,

The lesson and the attached stack were updated today, to use Firebase platform for handling Push Notifications.

Kind regards,
Panos
