AWS SNS Mobile device Push service (GCM mode)

The AWS Cloud service provides a very sophisticated service, and the messaging push service for mobile devices is also very good, very low cost, and good performance.

Although the AWS official web site has a lot of steps to explain, but I still take a big detour, mainly because there is so little contact with Google, so that the use of Google Cloud message to send a message in a circle.

First, the AWS official website documentation explains: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/zh_cn/sns/latest/dg/mobile-push-gcm.html

• GCM Prerequisites
• Step 1: Create a Google API project and enable GCM services
• Step 2: Get the server API key
• Step 3: Get the registration ID from GCM
• Step 4: Use GCM to send push notification messages to mobile endpoints

the first and second steps, in fact, are obtained from the Google website, not from AWS, which is the two-step comparison detours. And in the country must turn over the wall in order to view information. the third and fourth steps are done according to the documentation on the AWS official website. mobile phone must have Google's service framework, and if it is a domestic mobile phone, the phone must turn over the wall to receive messagesStep 1: Create a Google API project and enable GCM services

Go to Google website, sign in to Google account (below is the official website document, translate in later)

Creating a Google API project

To create a Google apiproject:

1. Open the Google developersconsole.

2. If you haven ' t created an API project yet, click createproject.

3. supply a project name and click Create.

Oncethe Project has been created, a page appears that displays your project ID andproject number. For example, Project number:670330094152.

4. Copy down your project number. you'll use it later on as the gcmsender ID.

Enabling the Gcmservice

1. in the sidebar to the left, select APIs &auth.

2. the displayed list of APIs, turn the googlecloud Messaging for Android toggle -On.

PS: Try not to take a space, project ID automatically generated

Once the project is created, it automatically jumps to the project details page, and you can see the project ID and project number, such as Project number:670330094152.

4 The project number is copied and will be used later as the GCM Sender ID.
