Firebase-ios-sdk: Firebase/InAppMessaging - Message display component is not present yet. No display should happen.

[AngeloGiurano]

[REQUIRED] Step 1: Describe your environment

• Xcode version: 10.2.1
• Firebase SDK version: 6.15.0
• Firebase Component: InAppMessaging
• Component version: 0.16.0
• Installation method: CocoaPods 1.7.5
• iOS version: 13.3

[REQUIRED] Step 2: Describe the problem

I can not test the in app messages since they won't simply render, seems like there is an error in the rendering phase, since the message seems to be received:

- [Firebase/InAppMessaging][I-IAM160001] There are 0 test messages and 1 regular messages and 0 Firebase Analytics events to watch after resetting the message cache

I found a few problems with this issue:

• I couldn't figure out how to label this issue, so I've labeled it for a human to triage. Hang tight.
• This issue does not seem to follow the issue template. Make sure you provide all the required information.

Hi @AngeloGiurano - thanks for the report. The instructions have been updated for the latest version of InAppMessaging (released yesterday) where the Display component is now part of Firebase/InAppMessaging where previously it was in a separate component, InAppMessagingDisplay.

Please make sure you run pod update to get the latest version of Firebase, it should be 6.16.0 with FirebaseInAppMessaging being version 0.17.0.

Let us know if that helps!

@ryanwilson First of all thanks for the quick reply and flawless solution.

I have been heavily testing to get back to you today, I've been able to display the In-App Messages but came up with a doubt

The limit of one message per day to be displayed regards all In-App messages or just one per campaign?

Because even if I create multiple campaigns with different names I'm getting this message

THX[5255:963182] 6.16.0 - [Firebase/InAppMessaging][I-IAM400003] Minimal display interval of 86400.000000 seconds has not been reached yet.

Please let me know if it is the desired outcome or I shall create another issue.

Thanks once again and wish you a lovely day!

I'm not sure personally but I'll reach out to the InAppMessaging team and get them to respond when they can, thanks!

Hey Angelo!
Thanks for your question - we allow only 1 on app foreground or app launch campaign a day - this is to prevent you from accidentally overwhelming your users with non-contextually appropriate messages. However, if you use the contextual triggers (ie: Analytics event or problematically triggered FIAM campaigns), there is no daily rate limit.

Hi @MeghaB, thank you for your reply and explanation, now everything is clear :)
