Ionic Native Push on browser

Ionic Framework ionic-v3
1

Hello there,
I’ve used the phonegap plugin mentioned above to register devices with push notifications, however, it doesn’t seem to be working when run in a browser. I do get a registration token, but cannot send notifications from the FCM dashboard (they fail).
After reading up, I saw that in the plugin docs it says that “push support on the browser will only work using the PhoneGap push server”.
However, I am unable to find anything on how to send push notifications via the PhoneGap push server? Or am I completely on the wrong track here?

Hope someone can point me in the right direction,
many thanks!

leostaric, did you ever figure this out? I’m in exactly the same boat right now. I would really appreciate any insight you or someone else has in configuring Push to work for browser.

No, I ended up making the browser ping my server for updates :frowning:
Still hoping for an answer to fix this one day.

Bummer! For what it’s worth, I just came across someone else’s approach to setting up browser notifications: https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic/issues/13987

Thanks for the reply. I really wish the plugin worked as advertised.
