read android push notification payload

[steve5588065]

In my app I use in pushnotification event ....

var data = arguments[0].originalEvent.notification;

var msg = data.aps.alert;
var myid = data.smsid;

This works fine for iOS, sending smsid as a customitem, but on android the data.aps.alert; works fine, but the data.smsid returns undefined

smsid is sent as part of gcm payload
"data": {
"smsid": "6",
"alert": "Reminder of your Booking on Sat at 10AM"
}

what am I missing with android ??

Hi Steve!

Try to find this value for Android, check all data structure that you recieve. Add on page Textarea component and run for it the following:
preAppery( "mobiletextarea_name" ).val( JSON.stringify( data ) );/pre

As you can see, for Android the smsid key-value pair is not being returned

I am using PushSharp .net assembly to send the Push Notifications

Hello! The problem seems to be in PhoneGap plugin PushNotifications. On Source tab or in Eclipse check src\com\phonegap\plugins\pushnotifications\PushNotifications.java and pay attention on onMessageReceived. You can find another plugin or rewrite existing one to recieve all data, not just an alert.

Something like this is above my skill level

Hi Steve,

The Push Notifications mechanism will be changed in the nearest release. Maybe the easiest solution is just to wait for a new Push Notifications feature.

[steve5588065]

Hi Katya

I will do that

Will the update have the android push notification features I am looking for?

Steve
