at this time, it was not possible :

Thank ,

Google has published the assistant sdk,it is very interesting :
https://developers.google.com/assistant/sdk/

But meanwhile a b4a library for assistant sdk is ready I am trying to use ifttt service to connect my app to google home mini.

With ifttt I can get a firebase push notification through they webhook service , but I didn't know what write into the field.

To send the push message, the webhook needs an url and a body message, the URL I think is https://fcm.googleapis.com/fcm/send

But I can understand what write into body field.

You can create a simple B4J server that will intercept the http messages and then do whatever you need.

Yes ,I know but my app is for home automation system and the server (android box) is behind an dynamic ip , and I don't want to use an external static IP server, so I would like to use firebase notification.

This is what I found but I can't understand how use it with webhook
https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/send-message#send_messages_to_specific_devices

Can you tell me what write into body field to send a post to fcm?

Thanks

I can't understand how use it with webhook

it is not posible with the webhook as you need to have a public accessible url which you need to call.
In this case it is the FCM Push send url. BUT you also need to authenticate yourslf against Firebase. This must be done by setting a specific header with the http request.
But you are not able to set this header in a webhook.

Setting up a B4J Server or even some small php-Scripts hosted somewhere should do the trick

Thanks Don

now it is more clear !

I'll use some trick waiting a B4x Library .
