If specified, overrides the body set via messaging.Notification. icon – Icon of the notification (optional). color – Color of the notification icon expressed in #rrggbb form (optional). sound – Sound to be played when the device receives the notification (optional). This is usually the file name of the sound resource. tag – Tag of the notification (optional). This is an identifier used to replace existing notifications in the notification drawer. If not specified, each request creates a new notification. click_action – The action associated with a user click on the notification (optional).

Prior to API level 21 (Lollipop), sets the text that is displayed in the status bar when the notification first arrives (optional). sticky – When set to False or unset, the notification is automatically dismissed when the user clicks it in the panel. When set to True, the notification persists even when the user clicks it (optional). event_timestamp – For notifications that inform users about events with an absolute time reference, sets the time that the event in the notification occurred as a datetime.datetime instance. If the datetime.datetime instance is naive, it defaults to be in the UTC timezone. Notifications in the panel are sorted by this time (optional). local_only – Sets whether or not this notification is relevant only to the current device. Some notifications can be bridged to other devices for remote display, such as a Wear OS watch. This hint can be set to recommend this notification not be bridged (optional). See Wear OS guides: https://developer.android.com/training/wearables/notifications/bridger#existing-method-of-preventing-bridging priority – Sets the relative priority for this notification. Low-priority notifications may be hidden from the user in certain situations. Note this priority differs from AndroidMessagePriority. This priority is processed by the client after the message has been delivered. Whereas AndroidMessagePriority is an FCM concept that controls when the message is delivered (optional). Must be one of default, min, low, high, max or normal. vibrate_timings_millis – Sets the vibration pattern to use. Pass in an array of milliseconds to turn the vibrator on or off. The first value indicates the duration to wait before turning the vibrator on. The next value indicates the duration to keep the vibrator on. Subsequent values alternate between duration to turn the vibrator off and to turn the vibrator on. If vibrate_timings is set and default_vibrate_timings is set to True, the default value is used instead of the user-specified vibrate_timings. default_vibrate_timings – If set to True, use the Android framework’s default vibrate pattern for the notification (optional). Default values are specified in config.xml https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/master/core/res/res/values/config.xml. If default_vibrate_timings is set to True and vibrate_timings is also set, the default value is used instead of the user-specified vibrate_timings. default_sound – If set to True, use the Android framework’s default sound for the notification (optional). Default values are specified in config.xml https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/master/core/res/res/values/config.xml light_settings – Settings to control the notification’s LED blinking rate and color if LED is available on the device. The total blinking time is controlled by the OS (optional). default_light_settings – If set to True, use the Android framework’s default LED light settings for the notification. Default values are specified in config.xml https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/master/core/res/res/values/config.xml. If default_light_settings is set to True and light_settings is also set, the user-specified light_settings is used instead of the default value. visibility – Sets the visibility of the notification. Must be either private, public, or secret. If unspecified, default to private. notification_count – Sets the number of items this notification represents. May be displayed as a badge count for Launchers that support badging. See NotificationBadge https://developer.android.com/training/notify-user/badges. For example, this might be useful if you’re using just one notification to represent multiple new messages but you want the count here to represent the number of total new messages. If zero or unspecified, systems that support badging use the default, which is to increment a number displayed on the long-press menu each time a new notification arrives.
