Firebase is a Google service that will allow you to use web push notification on your KLEQ site.

To Get Started:

  • Below are the details needed for the Firebase integration.

 

Setup your Firebase Account

  • You have to have a Firebase account first.
    Go to firebase.google.com.
  • Then login with your Google account.
  • Once login, click on Go to Console.
  • On the Console Dashboard, we need to create a project.
    Click on Create a project.
  • Enter a Project Name.
    After adding the name, the Project Id will automatically be generated.
    Accept the both terms and click on Continue.
  • In the next screen, disable the option Enable Google Analytics for this project.
    If you want to use Google Analytics for your Firebase project, you may enable this option.
    Then, click on Create Project.
  • The project will be created, and once done, click on Continue.

 

 

Get the Firebase Web App Snippet Code

  • Go back to Firebase Project Overview Dashboard
  • We need to create a new app.
  • Add an App nickname, then click Register App.
  • Under Add Firebase SDK, select Use a script tag.
    Copy the whole script, and click Continue to console.
  • Then paste this on the Firebase integration in the Firebase Web App Snippet Code field of your KLEQ site.
