I have read both the Android and iOS SDK documentation for integrating push notifications into my chat implementation. One topic that I do not see discussed is how to navigate to the correct place in an application when a push notification is tapped on.
For instance when a use taps on a push notification how does an app respond to the event in order to navigate to the view of the channel that received the message?
The documentation Push Notifications on iOS do not reference it but digging into the iOS SDK I found TwilioChatClientDelegate Protocol Reference. It has a delegate that does what I was looking for:
– chatClient:notificationNewMessageReceivedForChannelSid:messageIndex:
– chatClient:notificationAddedToChannelWithSid:
– chatClient:notificationInvitedToChannelWithSid:
– chatClient:notificationRemovedFromChannelWithSid:
– chatClient:notificationUpdatedBadgeCount:
For Android there is com.twilio.chat.NotificationPayload Class Reference which has methods for parsing out the data from the notification payload.
