Configuring GCM for Android

Google no longer supports creating new GCM credentials. If you do not already have GCM credentials for Android devices, we recommend you use ANS, the Ivanti notification service for Android devices. ANS does not require external credentials.

The instructions on this page are provided for people who already have GCM credentials.

GCM support enables Avalanche’s smart device server to communicate to your device wirelessly.

To provide Avalanche with existing GCM credentials:

1.From the Avalanche Console, navigate to Tools > System Settings.

2.In the SmartDevice Server section, enter the Google Project Number and API key you received in the Google Developers Console.

3.Click Save.

Your Android devices are now able to use Google Cloud service through Avalanche. You must also have an SSL certificate for the Smart device server in order to connect Android devices.
