Is ti possible too embedded video into android rich notification as it possible in iOS? I know that the android officially still do not support that, but it may be some tricky way to improvise that? :)
Thanks in advance.

Most android developers have no idea how it is done in iOS. Where do you want to show that video? – Vladyslav Matviienko Aug 22 '18 at 10:19

1just create a custom Notification layout and add an exo player there & listen for "notification receive" with a broadcast.receiver, which gets the video ID/URL pushed. "thanks in advance" does not motivate me to program that for you. – Martin Zeitler Aug 22 '18 at 10:41

You have to send url as notification payload and build proper notification ui in application. – 3mpty Aug 22 '18 at 11:18

There is no way to show video on RemoteViews. You can use only widgets that are described in the official documentation
As you show in comments as example, it's not a video in the notification, it's a simple image (but as I assume, when you click on it, some apps, that can show video by URL (or something like that), will be started and showing you content, that's all)

You have to implement FCM Messages 'Data message'. This will allow you to send custom json data. More info here: FCM documentation. Such message will not be shown automatically - after receiving you need to build your custom notification layout. More info here: Android dev documentation It's not possible to show video directly on notification panel. Checkout how youtube does it.
