[BUG] Background notifications are not catched

[mpodwysocki]

@twittemb to confirm, have you enabled Background Modes and Remote Notifications as noted in the Pushing Background Updates to Your App?

[twittemb]

@mpodwysocki

Yes. In fact I have done my tests with the SwiftUI sample app (adapted to my notification hubs data).

I have remade the test this morning and If I don't add the UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate conformance and the delegation in the AppDelegate, then background notifications are not read in the application.

Once I add that, I have foreground and background notifications (for silent notifications as well as alert notifications)

[mpodwysocki]

@twittemb will investigate the other scenarios. The test send I believe does not do the proper APNS headers for content-available which is required here.

Additionally, the notification’s POST request should contain the apns-push-type header field with a value of background, and the apns-priority field with a value of 5. The APNs server requires the apns-push-type field when sending push notifications to Apple Watch, and recommends it for all platforms. For more information, see Create and Send a POST Request to APNs.

I guess there might be an issue with the swizzling because we must make the AppDelegate conform to UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate and set the delegate for UNUserNotificationCenter.current().delegate = self.

Overall I’ve made everything work but there is some plumbing to do that is not specified in the documentation.

@twittemb It's an issue with our sample apps as they should be setting the delegate immediately during application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions

[twittemb]

Thanks for the follow up. So I guess we can close this issue ?

I think it could be nice to amend the README to reflect that, wouldn't it ?

[twittemb]

If I may, I think the Swift / SwiftUI sample apps should be updated also right ?

[mpodwysocki]

@twittemb they will be updated, just verifying through review that this is the correct approach before I merge the PR

[twittemb]

ok great, thanks.

For the issue #101, Am I right when I must deactivate the method swizzling to access a User response to a notification with a category (with custom actions) ?

[mpodwysocki]

@twittemb you do not have to disable swizzling if you don't want to, no, as I show in my examples as I get the actions and save them to a variable as noted in the AppDelegate

@mpodwysocki Hi,

Is there a way to register to the APNs for Provisional Push with the Azure NH SDK ?

Thanks.

[mpodwysocki]

@twittemb let's close this issue and please open a feature request for Provisional Push.
