Android 13 (API level 33) and higher supports runtime permission for sending non-exempt (including Foreground Services (FGS)) notifications from an app. We recommend targeting Android 13 or higher as soon as possible to benefit from this feature's additional control and flexibility. Click here to learn more about push prompt notification permission.

📘
Note
This feature will be available from the SDK Version: 5.3.10

How to configure the prompt in your app

SDK provides you two options to deal with the prompt configuration.

Option 1: Your own designed popup with your logic

Whenever the user consents to receive push notifications via a system-generated permission prompt, then call the undermtioned function by means of following the step by step procedure delineated below. This particular function will inform the NotifyVisitors SDK that the user has granted the permission to receive the notifications.

Step 1: Import Statement

import com.notifyvisitors.notifyvisitors.NotifyVisitorsApi;

import com.notifyvisitors.notifyvisitors.NotifyVisitorsApi

Step 2: Add Code

NotifyVisitorsApi.getInstance(activityContext).enablePushPermission();

NotifyVisitorsApi.getInstance(activityContext).enablePushPermission()

👍
Remember
Do not call this function in case the user denies receiving push notifications.

Option 2: SDK’s designed pop-up with logic

An illustration of the default UI of the SDK’s Push Permission Prompt has been provided below. Customizations are available as shown in the screenshots. We have two template designs for permission prompts. Each contains four parts viz. title, description, a positive option as button 1, and a negative option as button 2.

[ Template 1 ]

[ Template 0 ]

To achieve this follow the undermentioned steps:

Step 1 - Add the undermentioned import statements

import com.notifyvisitors.notifyvisitors.NotifyVisitorsApi;
import com.notifyvisitors.notifyvisitors.interfaces.OnPushRuntimePermission;
import com.notifyvisitors.notifyvisitors.permission.NVPopupDesign;

import com.notifyvisitors.notifyvisitors.NotifyVisitorsApi
import com.notifyvisitors.notifyvisitors.interfaces.OnPushRuntimePermission
import com.notifyvisitors.notifyvisitors.permission.NVPopupDesign

Step 2 - Add the undermentioned code to your activity

NVPopupDesign design = new NVPopupDesign();
design.setTitle("text");
design.setTitleTextColor("color_in_hexcode_format");
design.setDescription("text");
design.setDescriptionTextColor("color_in_hexcode_format");
design.setBackgroundColor("color_in_hexcode_format");
design.setNumberOfSessions(count_as_integer);
design.setResumeInDays(days_as_integer);
design.setNumberOfTimesPerSession(count_as_integer);
design.setTemplateID(integer);

design.setButtonOneBorderColor("color_in_hexcode_format");
design.setButtonOneBorderRadius(radius_as_integer);
design.setButtonOneText("text");
design.setButtonOneTextColor("color_in_hexcode_format");
design.setButtonOneBackgroundColor("color_in_hexcode_format");

design.setButtonTwoText("text");
design.setButtonTwoTextColor("color_in_hexcode_format");
design.setButtonTwoBackgroundColor("color_in_hexcode_format");
design.setButtonTwoBorderColor("color_in_hexcode_format");
design.setButtonTwoBorderRadius(radius_as_integer);

NotifyVisitorsApi.getInstance(activityContext).activatePushPermissionPopup(design, new OnPushRuntimePermission() {
   @Override
   public void getPopupInfo(JSONObject result) {
      //do your task here
   }
});

val design = NVPopupDesign()
design.setTitle("text")
design.setTitleTextColor("color_in_hexcode_format")
design.setDescription("text")
design.setDescriptionTextColor("color_in_hexcode_format")
design.setBackgroundColor("color_in_hexcode_format")
design.setNumberOfSessions(count_as_integer)
design.setResumeInDays(days_as_integer);
design.setNumberOfTimesPerSession(count_as_integer)
design.setTemplateID(integer)

design.setButtonOneBorderColor("color_in_hexcode_format")
design.setButtonOneBorderRadius(radius_as_integer)
design.setButtonOneText("text")
design.setButtonOneTextColor("color_in_hexcode_format")
design.setButtonOneBackgroundColor("color_in_hexcode_format")

design.setButtonTwoText("text")
design.setButtonTwoTextColor("color_in_hexcode_format")
design.setButtonTwoBackgroundColor("color_in_hexcode_format")
design.setButtonTwoBorderColor("color_in_hexcode_format")
design.setButtonTwoBorderRadius(radius_as_integer)

NotifyVisitorsApi.getInstance(this)
   .activatePushPermissionPopup(design, object : OnPushRuntimePermission {
       override fun getPopupInfo(it: JSONObject) {
           //do your task here
       }
   })

📘
Note
The function above has two parameters namely: numberOfSessions and resumeInDays. These two parameters will handle the flow of SDK’s push prompt permission (not the system’s permission dialog).

numberOfSessions → This parameter takes integer as input. In NV SDK, new or next session is created either on first app launch or after 30 minutes of user’s inactivity. So, if you set 3, then prompt will be displayed for next 3 sessions including current session in case user denies the prompt in every attempt.

resumeInDays → This parameter takes integer as input. When numberOfSessions set by you is completed then resumeInDays parameter will work. This is used to control the time period in days after which you intend to show the prompt again to the user. So, if you set 10 then prompt will remain hidden for 10 days and from the 11th day onwards it will get displayed according to the condition set in numberOfSessions parameter.

Title

Title of Permission Prompt. It is multi-line. Its default value is 'Get Notified \uD83D\uDD14'.

design.setTitle("Get Notified  \uD83D\uDD14");

design.setTitle("Get Notified  \uD83D\uDD14")

Additional Customizations

To change the title’s text style to such as italic, normal, etc. you can do so from here. The default value is bold. Four values can be passed here: bold, italic, normal, and bold-italic.

<string name="nv_prppTitleTextStyle">bold</string>

To change the title’s text size you can change it from here. The default value is 22.

NumberOfSessions

This parameter takes integer as input. In NV SDK, new or next session is created either on first app launch or after 30 minutes of user's inactivity. So, if you set 3, then the prompt will be displayed for next 3 sessions including the current session, in case user denies the prompt in every attempt.

Default value is 1.

design.setNumberOfSessions(2);
