This guide contains instructions for migration from PowerAuth Push Server version 0.19.0 to version 0.21.0.

Database changes

Following DB changes occurred between version 0.19.0 and 0.21.0:

Updated database columns for FCM

  • Table push_app_credentials - added column android_private_key which contains the Firebase service account private key used when obtaining access tokens for FCM HTTP v1 API.
  • Table push_app_credentials - added column android_project_id which contains the Firebase project ID.
  • Table push_app_credentials - dropped column android_server_key which was used by legacy FCM HTTP API.
  • Table push_app_credentials - dropped column android_bundle which was replaced by android_project_id.

Migration scripts are available for Oracle and MySQL.

DB migration script for Oracle:

--
--  Updated columns for FCM
--

ALTER TABLE PUSH_APP_CREDENTIALS ADD ANDROID_PRIVATE_KEY BLOB DEFAULT NULL;
ALTER TABLE PUSH_APP_CREDENTIALS ADD ANDROID_PROJECT_ID VARCHAR2(255) DEFAULT NULL;
ALTER TABLE PUSH_APP_CREDENTIALS DROP COLUMN ANDROID_SERVER_KEY;
ALTER TABLE PUSH_APP_CREDENTIALS DROP COLUMN ANDROID_BUNDLE;

DB migration script for MySQL:

--
--   Updated columns for FCM
--

alter table push_app_credentials add `android_private_key` blob DEFAULT NULL;
alter table push_app_credentials add `android_project_id` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL;
alter table push_app_credentials drop column `android_server_key`;
alter table push_app_credentials drop column `android_bundle`;

Dropped database columns for legacy old end-to-end encryption support

DB migration script for Oracle and MySQL:

--
--   Dropped columns for legacy end-to-end encryption
--

ALTER TABLE PUSH_DEVICE_REGISTRATION DROP COLUMN ENCRYPTION_KEY;
ALTER TABLE PUSH_DEVICE_REGISTRATION DROP COLUMN ENCRYPTION_KEY_INDEX;

ALTER TABLE PUSH_MESSAGE DROP COLUMN IS_ENCRYPTED;

Database indexes

You can apply following database indexes to improve database performance of Push Server.

The DDL script is identical for all supported databases:

CREATE UNIQUE INDEX PUSH_APP_CRED_APP ON PUSH_APP_CREDENTIALS(APP_ID);

CREATE INDEX PUSH_DEVICE_APP_TOKEN ON PUSH_DEVICE_REGISTRATION(APP_ID, PUSH_TOKEN);
CREATE INDEX PUSH_DEVICE_USER_APP ON PUSH_DEVICE_REGISTRATION(USER_ID, APP_ID);
CREATE INDEX PUSH_DEVICE_ACTIVATION ON PUSH_DEVICE_REGISTRATION(ACTIVATION_ID);

CREATE INDEX PUSH_MESSAGE_STATUS ON PUSH_MESSAGE(STATUS);

CREATE INDEX PUSH_CAMPAIGN_SENT ON PUSH_CAMPAIGN(IS_SENT);

CREATE INDEX PUSH_CAMPAIGN_USER_CAMPAIGN ON PUSH_CAMPAIGN_USER(CAMPAIGN_ID, USER_ID);
CREATE INDEX PUSH_CAMPAIGN_USER_DETAIL ON PUSH_CAMPAIGN_USER(USER_ID);

Storing of sent push messages disabled by default

Push server no longer stores sent push messages. You can enable storing of sent messages in database using following property:

powerauth.push.service.message.storage.enabled=true

Configuration of Push service URL

Push server contains a new REST API which needs to be configured in case Push Server runs on non-standard port, non-standard context path or uses HTTPS. You can configure the service URL using following property:

powerauth.push.service.url=http://localhost:8080/powerauth-push-server

Migration to FCM HTTP API v1

Push server started to use FCM HTTP API v1 in version 0.21.0.

The configuration parameters have changed for FCM HTTP API v1:

  • Private key needs to be configured instead of server key (which was removed from configuration).
  • Project ID needs to be configured.

You can obtain both parameters from Firebase Console. The project ID is visible in Project Settings | General. The private key can be generated using Project Settings | Service Accounts | Firebase Admin SDK, as described in FCM documentation. Use the whole generated JSON file when configuring private key in Push server.
