React-native-firebase: [🐛] getToken() returns not valid FCM token on IOS after deleteToken()

Created on 18 Nov 2020 · 9Comments · Source: invertase/react-native-firebase

Issue

In our application we use firebase messaging to communicate with the logged in user, therefore we call getToken() after the user logs in or in App.js after opening the application if the user is already logged in. If the user logs out of the application, we call deleteToken().

On Android, every time we call getToken() after deleteToken(), a new token is generated, which we save on our backend and use it to send messages. However, on IOS, in the same scenario, a new token is not generated, but the old token is returned, so when we try to send a message from our backend, we get the error "Request entity not found". Is this an intended action? Should I generate a token for different users in different scope?

Same problem.
This works for me: https://github.com/invertase/react-native-firebase/issues/3714#issuecomment-721027986 and https://github.com/invertase/react-native-firebase/issues/3714#issuecomment-699838886

deleteToken(undefined, '*')
getToken(undefined, '*')

getToken never resolve a promise if call it without arguments after deleteToken(undefined, '*')

Hi there! This is not intended or expected, but can you reproduce it still with v10 of react-native-firebase?


    "@react-native-firebase/app": "8.0.0",
    "@react-native-firebase/messaging": "7.2.1",

mikehardy on 18 Nov 2020

@mikehardy yep still the same after upgrading to v10

mkuligowski on 19 Nov 2020

Well that's unfortunate - thanks for checking, this will likely be an upstream issue - the surest course to resolution will be to do a quickstart reproduction based on: https://github.com/firebase/quickstart-ios/tree/master/messaging (or perhaps even https://github.com/firebase/quickstart-ios/tree/master/installations as I think it is the underlying provider of tokens?) with exact steps / iOS versions etc to reproduce

Any workaround so far? Unfortunately, we got stuck with this problem as well.

All information will be present on this issue assuming it is referenced if there is an issue logged upstream - what you see is what we know (not a lot unfortunately) - it needs someone from the community to dig in for triage

@Chachaproper thank you so much for cross-linking that, I had forgotten that. @michaelyav / @mkuligowski this may be thing you need, and we likely need to integrate it into our code as the default (I don't believe there is a PR pending for this, if not and it is confirmed as working we would welcome one and I'd help get it merged + released)

mikehardy on 20 Nov 2020

@Chachaproper thank you man ! i spended a lot of time to find out what the f*ck is happening there >_<
