Add repositories and dependencies to your Gradle files:


settings.gradle.kts (project settings)

dependencyResolutionManagement {
repositories {
// Other repositories..
maven("https://developer.huawei.com/repo/")
}
}



build.gradle.kts (project level)

buildscript {
repositories {
maven("https://developer.huawei.com/repo/")
}
dependencies {
classpath("com.android.tools.build:gradle:8.10.1") // Important: use the AGP version your project uses.
classpath("com.huawei.agconnect:agcp:1.9.1.301")
}
}



build.gradle.kts (app level)

plugins {
id("com.huawei.agconnect")
}

dependencies {
implementation("com.huawei.hms:push:6.11.0.300")
implementation("com.huawei.agconnect:agconnect-core:1.7.3.302")
}


Note

Information about the latest dependency versions is available on Huawei Developer pages:

After adding the repository and dependencies, sync your Gradle changes.


Creating a Class Extending HmsMessageService()

Create a class that extends HmsMessageService():

import com.huawei.agconnect.AGConnectOptionsBuilder
import com.huawei.hms.aaid.HmsInstanceId
import com.huawei.hms.api.HuaweiApiAvailability

/**
* HMS service for handling push tokens and incoming notifications.
*
* Extends [HmsMessageService] and overrides key HMS callback methods.
*/
class HMSService : HmsMessageService() {
/**
* Called when a new HMS token is generated.
*
* @param token The new HMS token.
*/
override fun onNewToken(token: String) {
super.onNewToken(token)
}

/**
* Called when a push message is received from HMS.
*
* Forwards the message with additional metadata to all receivers.
*
* @param message The received [RemoteMessage].
*/
override fun onMessageReceived(message: RemoteMessage) {
// Message
}
}

Updating the App Manifest

Add the HMSService declaration to your app’s AndroidManifest.xml:

<service
android:name="com.altcraft.hms.HMSService"
android:exported="false">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.huawei.push.action.MESSAGING_EVENT"/>
</intent-filter>
</service>

Replace com.altcraft.hms.HMSService with your own package and class name.
