How to get the title of the firebase remote notification

[aditya3vedi]

Question

Hi, I have a question regarding remote notifications ( firebase ), is there a way to get the notification title and image, etc. I know I can access the notification payload but I can't find anything regarding getting the title and text of the remote notification.

I guess I might not be looking in the correct place, can someone please point me in the right direction?

Hi @aditya3vedi
You can use a data-only notification and pass all data to the localNotification method.
This will allow you to use all features of the local notification.

PushNotification.configure({
  // ...

  // (required) Called when a remote is received or opened, or local notification is opened
  onNotification: function (notification) {
    console.log("NOTIFICATION:", notification);

    // process the notification
    if(!notification.userInteraction) {
        PushNotification.localNotification(notification.data);
    }

    // (required) Called when a remote is received or opened, or local notification is opened
    notification.finish(PushNotificationIOS.FetchResult.NoData);
  },

  // ...
});

Hey @Dallas62
Thanks for the quick response. For our project, we are using the Firebase console to send remote notifications. And with how much I can find out, I guess it is not possible to send data-only notifications from the console.
