Below approach are quite simple and useful where most of apps & their campaign portal utilise it


Overall Picture




Front End team needs to register device Id & Topic Against Each Device

For Individual Device Message , Firebase Admin SDK API needs to build which will be triggered via Admin Portal or some daily cron job depends on your campaign requirement .


Example : On Successful payment received, SDK api will be called with Device Registration Id of user along with Message Payload. API will send this Notification to specific user


For Generic Message to All, Admin Portal system needs to build Send Notification framework which will trigger Notification to topic against which all devices are registered

OR any content management portal can call same NodeJS API with Message Payload & Topic Name

Example : New Promotional Notifications or New Year Greeting to All etc.


This is 2 step application setup.


Front End Work : this has to be implemented in iOS or Android

  • Every Device has to be registered with FCM or SNS Framework

  • During Registering process we will be getting registration ID

  • registration ID has to be stored in backed with conjunction of UserId

  • Every Device should also be registered against one Topic as well

  • Application code on mobile for receiving Notification and displaying it


  • Topic – will be used for sending message to ALL device

  • Registration ID- will be used for specific device


BACKEnd Work :

  • Create one API End point using FireBase Admin SDK

  • Using the SDK, End point will have inputs either

  1. Topic with Message Payload

  2. registration ID with Message Payload
