How to create Firebase Cloud messaging recurring notifications without console?

Question

From FCM console I can not set up much more than 10 recurring notifications.

You can have up to 10 unique recurring notifications active per project

I want to aim targeting audiences, user properties, last user engagement also. For example, you can set up a recurring notification that sends a push notification to a user who has been inactive for 2 days. From FCM console it is possible but I want to set it up manually since FCM console does not allow me to create recurring notifications much more than 10.

Answer 1

There is no API to create recurring notifications in Firebase Cloud Messaging. Since you already tagged your question with google-cloud-functions, you seem to know that you can create scheduled tasks with that.

To create a scheduled, recurring notification you can:

• either run a function on a PubSub schedule or enqueue functions with Cloud Tasks, and
• combine that with notifying the user when something interesting happens

From this documentation and the examples in it, you should be able to get the use-case working. If not, post another question with the minimal, complete code that any of us can run to reproduce where you got stuck.
