I have Laravel project and I need to seed notifications from web to mobile (android,iOS) via API, a lot of recommendations goes to Firebase FCM (Firebase Cloud Messaging), but I have a question: can I use FCM of Firebase without using the DB of Firebase just unsing my own DB which is MYSQL ?
Yes, you can use Firebase Cloud Messaging without using any of the other Firebase products.
Just call the FCM REST API from your code, or use the Firebase Admin SDK, after reading the relevant data from your MySQL database.

How to make notifications with flutter without using firebase? I am using laravel for the backend and phpmyadmin for the database.
You can use AWS Amplify for push notifications,
check out this link.

We are developing an app using Laravel 8.3 for back-end, our boss is forcing as to keep all of our (3dr pray services) as less as possible, so most of the services that we need can be provided by Google & firebase.
we have a real-time chat inside the app.
Now the question:
Can we replace Pusher with Google cloud messaging for push notification?
will the (online/offline) and (seen/read) be as good as pusher?
if yes, what driver to use inside the .env file?
Thank you
I have thousands of users on Parse, and we are sending push notifications to them using parse.
Now we are migrating to firebase and can't guarantee that all users will open the app so FCM gets the new FCM registration token.
The question is can I send to old Parse users given I have their Parse device token (from installation table)?
I'm pretty sure you can't just import the tokens used by parse.com to Firebase Cloud Messaging for use. What should be done is to register your client app users to FCM by adding it to your app.
More details can be found in the Migrate your Parse Android App to Firebase (or if you're using iOS) docs:
Suggested Migration Strategy: Migrating Device Tokens
At the time of writing, the Parse Android SDK uses an older version of the FCM registration tokens, not compatible with the features offered by Firebase Notifications.
You can get a new token by adding the FCM SDK to your app; however, this might invalidate the token used by the Parse SDK to receive notifications. If you want to avoid that, you can set up the Parse SDK to use both Parse's sender ID and your sender ID. In this way you don't invalidate the token used by the Parse SDK, but be aware that this workaround will stop working when Parse shuts down its project.
From my answer here.
I'm wondering if I could use the new parse app api, for update information about ios certificates, more precisely, to upload them.
This is not supported by their Apps API.
Edit: Here is a list of what is supported via the endpoint:
Enabling/Disabling...
...Client Side Class creation
...Client Push
...Revokable sessions
...Revoking a session on password chang
I am starting a new web / mobile project and I would like to use Breeze.js for data access and Parse.com for my backend provider. Does anyone have experience with hooking Breeze to Parse.com or know of any projects out there that are doing this already? I realize that Parse.com has their own APIs for data access but I am already familiar with Breeze and I would like to continue to use it if possible.
