JS: AUTHENTICATION_FAILED

[meparashar]

On trying to get push token (messaging.getCurrentPushToken) or to register push notification/handlers the console prints JS: AUTHENTICATION_FAILED on android platform. On iOS, everything works fine.

I'm trying this on android emulator.

Have you installed Google Play services on your emulator?

[meparashar]

Yes, they are installed.

[manojdcoder]

Have you logged on the emulator with a Google Account, which actually enables Play Services?

[meparashar]

Yup, tried logging in with own account as well.

[manojdcoder]

Meaning it worked and you are able to access Play Store?

[meparashar]

no, i meant i tried with own account as well but still received the same error.

[manojdcoder]

Do you have a screenshot? I'm not sure how you could get the same error while logging in with Google for Play Services.

[meparashar]

Pls excuse my naive questions, but what do you mean by logging in with google for play services. I logged in to my google account (same one using which I log in to my gmail) and then launched my app via tns debug android etc.

errrrrrrr blocks are inside my catch of messaging.getCurrentPushToken call.

messaging.getCurrentPushToken() .then(deviceToken => { console.log(Current push token: ${deviceToken}) }).catch((err) => { console.log('errrrrrrr'); console.dir(err); console.log(err); console.log('errrrrrrr'); });

How about on real device, did you test it yet?

[meparashar]

nope, just on emulator.. i know it's supposed to work on emulator and unlike ios you can receive notifications on android emulator.

Hi Manoj, I think there's some mistake i made. When i logged in, i did, by going to settings > accounts, which didn't solve it. But then I clicked on play icon on home screen and logged in there which seem to have worked. I'm no longer getting the authentication related error. Thank you for your pointers. Thanks.
