[question]: getIdAsync is returning null with latest SDK

[rikinshah23]

How can we help?

I am using version "react-native-onesignal": "^5.1.3",

Initializing the OneSignal SDK in App.js in my React-native application like so:

useEffect(() => {
    StatusBar.setBarStyle('dark-content');
    //OneSignal Init Code
    OneSignal.initialize(cloudFunctionConfig.OneSignalAppID);
  }, []);

I am using getIdAsync and getOnesignalId functions and it always returning null

hasOptedIn always comes as true so that part is working.

getTokenAsync also returns the value.

useEffect(() => {
    async function setPlayerId() {
      try {
        if (!OneSignal) {
          console.log('OneSignal is not initialized');
          return;
        }
        console.log('OneSignal', OneSignal);

        OneSignal.login(user?.uid);
        OneSignal.User.pushSubscription.optIn();

        const hasOptedIn =
          await OneSignal.User.pushSubscription.getOptedInAsync();
        console.log('hasOptedIn', hasOptedIn);

        const onesignalId = await OneSignal.User.getOnesignalId();
        console.log('onesignalId', onesignalId);
        const playerId = await OneSignal.User.pushSubscription.getIdAsync();

        console.log(
          'getPushSubscriptionId',

          await OneSignal.User.pushSubscription.getIdAsync(),
          await OneSignal.User.pushSubscription.getTokenAsync(),
          await OneSignal.User.pushSubscription.getOptedInAsync(),
        );

        console.log('playerId', playerId);
      } catch (error) {
        console.log('setPlayerId error', error);
      } finally {
        setEffect2Done(true);
      }
    }
    setPlayerId();
  }, [user, loadingUser]);

Experiencing the same thing with 5.1.3 and the latest release 5.2.0. Works fine with 5.1.0.

Hi @rikinshah23 and @wneild are you seeing this on both iOS and Android?

Experiencing the same thing with 5.2.0 on android. It seems to work fine on iOS.

Also I reverted back to 5.0.0 and using the sync version of the API , I also cannot see the notificationId anymore.

Same issue here with 5.2.1. This is my code:

useEffect(() => {
    const initialize = async () => {

      // OneSignal Initialization
      OneSignal.initialize(Constants.expoConfig.extra.oneSignalAppId);
      OneSignal.Notifications.requestPermission(true);
      console.log("requestPermission:");
      OneSignal.Notifications.addEventListener("click", (event) => {
        console.log("OneSignal: notification clicked:", event);
      });
      OneSignal.Notifications.addEventListener("foregroundWillDisplay", (event) => {
        event.getNotification().display();
      });
      OneSignal.Notifications.addEventListener("permissionChange", (granted) => {
        console.log("OneSignal: permission changed:", granted);
        fetchAndSendSubscriptionInfo();
      });

      const fetchAndSendSubscriptionInfo = async () => {
        try {
          const subId = await OneSignal.User.pushSubscription.getIdAsync();
          console.log("subId:", subId); // <----- here I get null
          if (subId) await updateSubscriptionToken(subId);
        } catch (error) {
          console.error("Error fetching subscription info:", error);
        }
      };
      fetchAndSendSubscriptionInfo();
    };

    initialize();
  }, []);
