Firebase push notification goes to wrong page if app is backgrounded

Question

I have created app that sends push notification. Everything is working well. If the app is running or not closed it takes me to the second page directly. But problem is that after running my app if I put my app in background or close it and then send notification. After clicking on notification it takes me to the mainpage instead of the second page. I want it must take me to second page even if app is closed or in the background. Below is my code:

MainActivity.java

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    private static final String TAG="MainActivity";


    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        Button BtnshowToken=(Button)findViewById(R.id.buttonshowtoken);
        BtnshowToken.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {
                String token= FirebaseInstanceId.getInstance().getToken();
                Log.d(TAG,"Token: "+token);
                Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this,token,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

            }
        });
    }


}

MyFirebaseInstanceIDService.java

public class MyFirebaseInstanceIDService extends FirebaseInstanceIdService {

    private static final String TAG="MyFirebaseInsIDService";

    @Override
    public void onTokenRefresh() {

        //get updated token
        String refreshedToken= FirebaseInstanceId.getInstance().getToken();
        Log.d(TAG,"New Token: "+refreshedToken);



    }
}


MyFirebaseMessagingService.java
public class MyFirebaseMessagingService extends FirebaseMessagingService{
    private static final String TAG="MyFirebaseMsgService";


    @Override
    public void onMessageReceived(RemoteMessage remoteMessage) {
       Log.d(TAG, "FROM:" +remoteMessage.getFrom());

        //Check if msg contains data
        if(remoteMessage.getData().size() > 0){
            Log.d(TAG, "Message data: "+remoteMessage.getData());
        }


        //Check if msg contains notification
        if(remoteMessage.getNotification()!=null){
            Log.d(TAG,"Message body: "+remoteMessage.getNotification().getBody());
            sendNotification(remoteMessage.getNotification().getBody());
        }
    }

        //Display notification
private void  sendNotification(String body){

    Intent intent=new Intent(this,SecondActivity.class);
    intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);

    PendingIntent pendingIntent=PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0/*Request code*/, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_ONE_SHOT);
    //Set sound of notification
    Uri notificationsound= RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION);

    NotificationCompat.Builder notifiBuilder=new NotificationCompat.Builder(this)
            .setSmallIcon(R.mipmap.ic_launcher)
            .setContentTitle("Firebase Cloud Messaging")
            .setContentText(body)
            .setAutoCancel(true)
            .setSound(notificationsound)
            .setContentIntent(pendingIntent);


    NotificationManager notificationManager=(NotificationManager)getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
    notificationManager.notify(0/*Id of notification*/,notifiBuilder.build());



    }
}


SecondActivity.java
public class SecondActivity extends Activity {

     TextView tv;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.second);

you need to ClickListener from server request and add listener name in your manifest intent-action inside your activity.

"notification" : {
"body" : "Body",
"title" : "Titme",
"icon" : "YourIcon"
"click_action" : "<<yourkey e.g. MainActivity>>"
}

<activity
     android:name=".MainActivity">
     <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="<<yourkey e.g. MainActivity>>" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
    </intent-filter>

This is for when your app is not available in foreground. Hope this is helpful, thanks

If the app is in background and you click the notification, the data is stored in extras of the intent. So what you need is something like action_code in the firebase request. This is the example :

Firebase Request :

{
  "to": "/topics/order",
  "priority": "high",
  "notification": {
    "title": "Hello admin",
    "body":"There's new order :)",
    "sound":"default"
  },
  "data": {
    "msgCode":"newOrder"
  }
}

MainActivity.java

Intent intent = getIntent();
if (intent.hasExtra("msgCode")) {
    String msgCode = intent.getStringExtra("msgCode");
    if (msgCode.equals("newOrder")) {
        Toast.makeText(this, "newOrder", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        Log.i("zihad", "newOrder");
        startActivity(new Intent(this, ListOrderActivity.class));
        intent.removeExtra("msgCode");
    }
}

how did you push notification from your firebase? – zihadrizkyef Feb 25 '17 at 11:48
I clicked on Notifications and then new message and then send gave message ,selected app i.e my package name and then clicked on send message. – Ajinkya Feb 27 '17 at 10:30
"notification" : { "body" : "Body", "title" : "Titme", "icon" : "YourIcon" "click_action" : "<>" } where to write this part? – Ajinkya Mar 01 '17 at 10:20
So what you have to do is to push notif from firebase's API.. So it's gona be like [this](http://prnt.sc/eewph3) – zihadrizkyef Mar 02 '17 at 00:51
