I have a Xamarin.Android application that I've configured for GCM using this Xamarin guide The app is able to receive the notifications this way. BUT, when I put the GCM API key in notification Hub, and send the notification via Azure, its not received in the app.

The app registers with GCM. Do I need to register with Azure Notification Hub? If yes, how?

Found the solution. I had to register with Azure notification hub too. If someone is stuck, follow this:

Or, follow the example given in Xamarin's "Azure Messaging" component here: https://components.xamarin.com/gettingstarted/azure-messaging
