FirebaseInstanceIdService getToken returning null
Im trying to add FCM notifications to my app, but for some reason
FirebaseInstanceId.getInstance().getToken();
is returning null.
Since im not getting any stacktrace my best guess is that FirebaseInstanceIdService is not working
- Google Play Services version: 9.6.1
- Firebase-messaging version : 9.6.1
- added json config file from FirebaseConsole (Tried single file with 2 clients inside it, one for debug and one for release build) and 2 files each for respective build
Iw applied google services plugin at the bottom of my modules gradle script Included google services in projects root gradle script
Created 2 services from the officail docs:
public class MyFirebaseInsanceIDService extends FirebaseInstanceIdService {
private static final String TAG = "MyFirebaseIIDService";
@Override
public void onTokenRefresh() {
// Get updated InstanceID token.
String refreshedToken = FirebaseInstanceId.getInstance().getToken();
PreferencesHelper.putSharedPreferencesString(Constants.User.PUSH_NOTIFICATIONS, refreshedToken);
Log.e("TOKEN", "Token: " + FirebaseInstanceId.getInstance().getToken());
}
}
And the manifest:

- Note that im using
tools:node="replace"in my root application tag. Is it possible thatFirebaseInstanceIdServiceis not added to the manifest since it has the same intent filter as mineFirebaseInstanceServiceand thus not being called?
So my question here would be is there something wrong it the official docs or in my implementation that should cause the Instance token to be null?
Solution 1:
After digging up thru old implementations of FCM and generated manifests, I can now say that manifest merger is the problem.
Solution for this problem is adding these classes to the apps manifest manualy

Solution 2:
While I was doing the migration I had a problem, it was that I didn't receive any Notification. To solve this and If you have your GCM working, don't forget to include your sender ID when you get the Firebase Token. To consult this ID you have to navigate to your Firebase project and click Project Name. Click the Setting icon and select "Project Setting" menu Select "Could Messaging" tab and use sender ID on the page.
And when says to code this:
token = FirebaseInstanceId.getInstance().getToken();
You have to use this:
token = FirebaseInstanceId.getInstance().getToken("YOUR_SENDER_ID", "FCM");
It works for me, I hope this helps you ;)
Solution 3:
This worked for me:
String token = FirebaseInstanceId.getInstance().getInstanceId().getResult().getToken();
