Php – Sending Push Notification to Multiple Selected Devices with FCM

public function send_fcm()
    {
        $project="some-project";
        require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';
        $client = new GoogleClient();
        $client->setAuthConfig('../menicon_images/some-project-firebase-adminsdk-kgpuf-afs957ea.json');
        $client->addScope('https://www.googleapis.com/auth/firebase.messaging');
        $result = $client->fetchAccessTokenWithAssertion();
        $accessToken=$result["access_token"];

        $fcmUrl = 'https://fcm.googleapis.com/v1/projects/'.$project.'/messages:send';

        $notification = [
            'title' =>"Some title",
            'body' => "SOme message",
        ];

        $fcmNotification =[
                'message' => [
                    'token' => "some-token-device",
                    'notification' => $notification,
                ],
            ];

        $headers = [
            'Authorization: Bearer '.$accessToken,
            'Content-Type: application/json'
        ];       

        $ch = curl_init();
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$fcmUrl);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode($fcmNotification));
        $result = curl_exec($ch);
        curl_close($ch);
    }

I am trying to send multiple Selected Devices via FCM,
Below are my codes, currently I could only send to one device.

I had seen the code that is able to send to all devices, but I need to send to specific devices not device.
I looking for a way to send an array of tokens to FCM

    As i understood your question you want to send notification to multiple devices. To send FCM messages to multiple devices using specific tokens, you need to modify the structure of your $fcmNotification array. Instead of having a single message key with a single token, you can create an array of messages, each with its own token. Here’s an example of how you can modify your code:

    public function send_fcm()
{
    $project = "some-project";
    require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

    $client = new GoogleClient();
    $client->setAuthConfig('../menicon_images/some-project-firebase-adminsdk-kgpuf-afs957ea.json');
    $client->addScope('https://www.googleapis.com/auth/firebase.messaging');
    $result = $client->fetchAccessTokenWithAssertion();
    $accessToken = $result["access_token"];

    $fcmUrl = 'https://fcm.googleapis.com/v1/projects/' . $project . '/messages:send';

    $notification = [
        'title' => "Some title",
        'body' => "SOme message",
    ];

    $deviceTokens = ["some-token-device1", "some-token-device2", "some-token-device3"]; // Add your device tokens to this array

    $fcmNotifications = [];

    foreach ($deviceTokens as $token) {
        $fcmNotifications[] = [
            'message' => [
                'token' => $token,
                'notification' => $notification,
            ],
        ];
    }

    $headers = [
        'Authorization: Bearer ' . $accessToken,
        'Content-Type: application/json'
    ];

    $ch = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $fcmUrl);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode($fcmNotifications));
    $result = curl_exec($ch);
    curl_close($ch);
}

    In this example, the $deviceTokens array contains the FCM tokens of the devices you want to send messages to. The foreach loop then constructs an array of $fcmNotifications, each with its own token. This array is then sent to FCM using the curl request.

    Make sure to replace "some-token-device1", "some-token-device2", etc., with the actual FCM tokens of the devices you want to target.

    From the Firebase documentation on sending messages to multiple devices

    Important: The send methods described in this section were deprecated on June 21, 2023, and will be removed in June 2024. For protocol, instead use the standard HTTP v1 API send method, implementing your own batch send by iterating through the list of recipients and sending to each recipient’s token. For Admin SDK methods, make sure to update to the next major version. See the Firebase FAQ for more information.

    And from that FAQ, this is the required action:

    Migrate to the standard HTTP v1 API send method, which supports HTTP/2 for multiplexing.

    So you’ll have to call the regular send method for each recipient, and ensure HTTP/2 multiplexing to optimize resource usage across those calls.

    Alternatively, you can use a topic to reach multiple recipients with one API call in a publish/subscribe pattern – although that is not a direct replacement.
