使用Parse将推送通知发送到Android设备

Question

I find the parse documentation is little confusing when it comes to Android. I am sending notifications using Parse from a .NET background service. The service is calling Parse REST API

• Install the device with deviceToken and deviceType
• Send push notification to device once the previous step is successful.

This works beautifully with iOS device POST: 1/push

{  
    "deviceToken": "<big device token>",
    "deviceType": "android",
    "channels" : []
}

This says

{
    code: 114
    error: "deviceToken may not be set for deviceType android"
}

the documentation says, we need to have a unique installationId for Android device install uploads. How do I do this from backend? Which API should be used to get installation Id?

Answer 1

This is how you get the installation ID :

ParseInstallation.getCurrentInstallation().getInstallationId()

( Class Reference )

Answer 2

What I understand, Parse doesn't support android device installations using REST API; it supports from client side SDK.
