Classpath in project level build.gradle

    classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:latest-version'

or latest

    id 'com.google.gms.google-services' version 'latest-version' apply false

Plugin in App level build.gradle

    id 'com.google.gms.google-services'

Dependencies

no dependencies required

Step 2

Add maven repository in project level build.gradle or in latest project setting.gradle file

    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
        maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
    }

Step 3

Add FCM dependencies in App level build.gradle.

    dependencies {
             implementation 'com.github.hypersoftdev:fcm:1.0.4'
    }

Step 4

Finally intialize Firebase and setup FCM in application class or in your "MainActivity"

    SonicFCM.setupFCM(this, "YourTopicName")

If you want to stop receiving notification from the subscribed topic simply call.

    SonicFCM.removeFCM("YourTopicName")

Send Data Message using the HTTP protocol with POSTMAN
