Legacy FCM response now forbidden


Legacy FCM doesn't work anymore since the weekend.

My devices send push notifications via Legacy FCM via fcm.googleapis.com/fcm/send. I didn't change anything, but since the weekend I get the error code "HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden". Does anybody else have this problem since a few days? Changed google something?

I tried my keys with https://www.apnstester.com/fcm/ It still works. So I think google changed something in the firebase console.

Edit: Is it possible that there is a secured access needed (https) and http is not supported anymore.

BR, Flo


Solution

  • I had exactly the same problem since Saturday. I have a node app that send requests to fcm.googleapis.com/fcm/send in http and I had a 403 Forbidden on every requests.

    Using https fixed the problem. Apparently the http is not supported anymore. I didn't find any mention of that anywhere though.
