Google has announced the deprecation of the current FCM send API ("legacy HTTP"), scheduled to take effect by June 2024. To ensure uninterrupted service and continued receipt of mobile push notifications on Android, please update your FCM Private Key File in our Admin Portal before the deprecation deadline. Please check our documentation for more details.
Our Swift, JavaScript, Kotlin, and Rust SDKs have all been released with these local listeners, allowing you to create finely tailored subscription objects subscribed to your choice of channels, channel groups, or user and channel metadata events. These new subscription objects operate independently allowing you to start or stop receiving channel data without disturbing other subscription objects. For example, when a user starts the application they can be added to generic channels to receive news or other information as a first subscription object. After they log in, they are added to custom channels tailored toward the user as a second subscription object. With the previous architecture when a user logged out and unsubscribed from the custom channels, the user would also be unsubscribed from the generic channels. However, with the new listener architecture you can independently unsubscribe from the custom channels while leaving the generic channel subscriptions intact. Visit our documentation to learn more.
We've enhanced our platform by integrating presence, push, and history webhooks into Events & Actions (E&A). These substantial improvements streamline the setup and maintenance of webhooks, providing even more flexibility for system interaction. Now, you can send events not only to webhooks but also to services like S3, SQS, Kinesis, and more. You can also modify webhook URLs, set retry intervals, configure headers, and assign multiple webhooks to a single event. Activate E&A
PubNub Insights now includes a new User Behavior dashboard. This dashboard allows you to monitor user engagement, enabling a better understanding of how users view your content and reducing churn by observing how long users stay connected to channels or events and how this duration differs over time. To learn more visit our documentation.
Now you can explore new Presence rules in PubNub's admin portal. Within Presence Management you can track specific Presence events such as: Join, Leave, TimeOut, State-Change, and Intervals. You can add Channel Patterns or Channel Groups, specify the events to track for each group, create as many rules as you need, and assign priorities to each rule. All the rules created within Presence Management are in real time. To learn more visit our docs.
