messaging/unknown-error when using sendEachForMulticast

[davideicardi]

• Operating System version: AWS Lambda
• Firebase SDK version: firebase-admin 12.3.0 (but also previous versions)
• Firebase Product: message notification
• Node.js version: Node.JS 18
• NPM version: 9

I have a project that send notification messages to Android and IoS. We use sendEachForMulticast method. It worked fine for several months. But recently we started to receive the following error:

{
"code":"messaging/unknown-error"
"message":"Operation is not implemented, or supported, or enabled. Raw server response: "{"error":{"code":501,"message":"Operation is not implemented, or supported, or enabled.","status":"UNIMPLEMENTED"}}""
}

We create the messages, using the MulticastMessage type, with the following structure:

{
      tokens: [token1, token2],
      data: {
         // ... (string->string)
      },
      android: {
        priority: 'normal',
        ttl: TTL_SECONDS * 1000,
      },
      fcmOptions: {
        analyticsLabel: 'my-label',
      },
      apns: {
        payload: {
          aps: {
            alert: {
              titleLocKey: 'key1',
              locKey: 'key2',
              locArgs: ['value1'],
            },
          },
          contentAvailable: true,
        },
        headers: {
          'apns-expiration': `${Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000) + TTL_SECONDS}`,
        },
      },
    };

Any ideas of what can be the problem? It could be related to https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/migrate-v1?authuser=0&hl=en ?

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.

Sorry, my fault. I still used sendMulticast deprecated method.

sendEachForMulticast

Hi Team,

Issue :
Facing inconsistent push notifications. With same token without any changes push notifications works for some times and does not works some times.

Platform : Android and IOS
Codebase : node.js
Firebase-admin sdk version : 12.4.0
Node.js version: Node.JS 20

Sample node code :

let message = {
  tokens: array of fcm tokens
  notification: 
    {
       title: "test_title",
       body: push notification message,
    },
  data: 
    {
       data: payload,
       alertType: "crash",
    },
};

let response = await firebaseAdmin.messaging().sendEachForMulticast(message);

The error message is random and either one of them

1. {"success":false,"error":{"code":"messaging/mismatched-credential","message":"SenderId mismatch"}}

2. {"success":false,"error":{"code":"messaging/unknown-error","message":"Operation is not implemented, or supported, or enabled. Raw server response: "{"error":{"code":501,"message":"Operation is not implemented, or supported, or enabled.","status":"UNIMPLEMENTED"}}""}}

3. {"success":false,"error":{"code":"messaging/registration-token-not-registered","message":"Requested entity was not found."}}

Where is it stated that sendEach is deprecated? https://firebase.google.com/docs/reference/admin/node/firebase-admin.messaging.messaging#messagingsendeach Its still in the docu. Thanks for the answer I couldnt find out whats wrong since they secretely changed the method and the error response is misleading, also tests are misleading because for some of the requests they let it go through while randomly others get refused!:D

Thanks a lot.

Push notifications are not being delivered in the Android Edge browser when using:
await this.app.messaging().sendEachForMulticast(message); Notifications work as expected in all other browsers.
