Description

api: messaging type: question

Regarding the documentation, the method "setBackgroundMessageHandler" of the service worker should be triggered when the payload contains data, not if the notification contains data:

messaging.setBackgroundMessageHandler(...)

How to send a web push message using firebase-admin-java that contains data in the payload that triggers this callback method?
