Sending notifications to Google Cloud Messaging with php gives me Unauthorized Error 401


Searching for some info about how to send notifications using GCM but with PHP instead of servlets, i found this: GCM with PHP (Google Cloud Messaging)

I tested the working code of the responses of these questions, also i created a Key for browser apps (with referers), and i give permissions to this ip: .mywebsite.com/ (te php file is on this url: "http://www.mywebsite.com/~jma/cHtml5/cap/kk.php")

But i'm getting this response: Unauthorized Error 401

What i'm doing wrong?

this is the php file:

<?php
    // Replace with real server API key from Google APIs        
    $apiKey = "fictional key";

    // Replace with real client registration IDs
    $registrationIDs = array( "APA91asdasdSDGGS232S13S4213abGqiNhCIXKjlxrkUYe_xTgTacNGB5n16b380XDd8i_9HpKGRHkvm8DDet4_WK3zumjDEKkTRWLgPS7kO-BrKzWz7eWFQaDD9PJ8zA6hlSqL9_zH21P8K22ktGKmo_VIF6YAdU9ejJovrKBTpgQktYkBZBf9Zw","APAasdasd32423dADFG91bHYYxYB7bFiX5ltbJt6A-4MBiNg7l4RS4Bqf3jIfYviaaUfZ810XJo2o66DY9-jdeJk_JR8FIZCyrmCv-eu_WLkGZ8KaoHgEDR_16H2QPm98uHpe1MjKVXbzYc4J89WMmcIrl5tHhWQnIQNzaI6Zp6yyFUNUQ");

    // Message to be sent
    $message = "Test Notificación PHP";

    // Set POST variables
    $url = 'https://android.googleapis.com/gcm/send';

    $fields = array(
        'registration_ids' => $registrationIDs,
        'data' => array( "message" => $message ),
    );

    $headers = array(
        'Authorization: key=' . $apiKey,
        'Content-Type: application/json'
    );

    // Open connection
    $ch = curl_init();

    // Set the url, number of POST vars, POST data
    curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url );
    curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_POST, true );
    curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
    curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true );
    //curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode( $fields ) );

    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
    //curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
    //curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode( $fields ));

    // Execute post
    $result = curl_exec($ch);

    // Close connection
    curl_close($ch);
    echo $result;
    //print_r($result);
    //var_dump($result);
?>

Solution

  • Solved!!!

    you must use Key for server apps (with IP locking) instead of browser key

    :)
