Manual Registration

To manually register device tokens select My Apps & Devices from the menu bar and select your App or Device definition. In the View/Edit App/Device page. Add the device token in to the meta data section as an attribute. Use fcmId for Android devices and apnId for iOS devices.

    String token = "...";
    String appId = "...";

    final Client client = new Client(token, appId, Transport.WSS);
