Stop notification sliding back into header after interaction?

[James-Clark12]

Hey, I have the notifee notifications working nicely in android except whenever the app is in the background and I interact with the notification it slides back up into the notification drawer or to be more accurate the whole notification drawer collapses back up. The interaction callback is called but I want the drawer and notification to remain visible so the user can press the interaction multiple times (it increments a timer). The notification is not cleared just updated.

To be clear I am not trying to prevent the notification from being dismissed but have added the properties "ongoing: false" and "autoCancel: false" anyway. I just want the drawer to stay open.

The interactions execute some callback which in turn calls a function that updates the notification using this function:

export async function updateNotification(
    notificationData: NotificationDataType,
) {
    await notifee.displayNotification({
        id: NOTIFICATION_ID,
        title: notificationData.title,
        body: notificationData.body,
        android: {
            ongoing: true,
            autoCancel: false,
            channelId: notificationData.channelId,
            actions: notificationData.actions,
            pressAction: {
                id: 'default',
            },
        },
    });
}

I think this code is fine and not causing the notification/ drawer to slide up so I'm really not sure what is causing it.

I request the channel in the correct way too I believe:

    useEffect(() => {
        /**On mount we need to get permission to show notifications and also select a channel
         * for notifications to show on (android thing)
         */
        const requestNotificationPermission = async () => {
            await notifee.requestPermission();
            const newChannelId = await notifee.createChannel({
                id: 'default',
                name: 'Default Channel',
                importance: AndroidImportance.HIGH,
            });
            setChannelId(newChannelId);
        };
        requestNotificationPermission();
    }, []);

Any suggestions as to what is happening? I'd be very grateful. Otherwise I have found this to be a great library.

I have the same issue - all notification actions automatically close the notification drawer. It seems this is a hardcoded functionality within the Notifee library. Which is confusing because I can see the hideNotificationDrawer() function in the API, but no way to do the opposite.
