android - Firebase Cloud Messaging Notification Vibration

Question

Is it possible to make an Android device vibrate when receiving notifications in the background with Firebase Cloud Messaging? From the Syntax Reference I have seen and tested that sound is supported, but no info on vibration. Or is it somehow possible to provide a customized implementation for this notification where I would directly set the vibration?

Answer 1

You should mark yourself as a correct answer.

On a sidenote, if you do send a Notification and a Data payload, use

"notification":{
    "sound":"default"
}

This will play the sound when the application is in background and the device is set to sound, and it will play a vibration if the device is set to vibrate.

However, as far as customization goes I think you need to use the Data Payload only if you want to customize the vibration pattern for example.
