How to get One Signal unique user id in Mobile?

Question

I am developing a restaurant app. I am using One Signal in my app to send notifications. Here while I place the order I need to send the unique Id of the one signal for a specific user for getting notification of "Your Order is placed successfully... It is in Progress.Please wait". For that I need the user's One Signal user id. How can I get it? I am newbie to One Signal. Please help me.

Answer 1

Got the unique Id of OneSignal by using the following code which is in official site of OneSignal.

OneSignal.idsAvailable(new OneSignal.IdsAvailableHandler() {
        @Override
        public void idsAvailable(String userId, String registrationId) {
            Log.d("debug", "User:" + userId);
            if (registrationId != null)
                Log.d("debug", "registrationId:" + registrationId);

        }
    });

Answer 3

Android Java

String userId = OneSignal.getDeviceState().getUserId();

Android Kotlin

val oneSignalUserID = OneSignal.getDeviceState()!!.userId

iOS OneSignal Version 3.6.0

guard let userID = OneSignal.getDeviceState().userId else { return }

iOS Old OneSignal Version

let status: OSPermissionSubscriptionState = OneSignal.getPermissionSubscriptionState()
    if let id = status.subscriptionStatus.userId {
    oneSignalPlayer_ID = id
    print("\nOneSignal UserId:", id)
}

This solution works perfectly. Other solutions (including the accepted one) might be deprecated. They didn't work on Android Studio/Java. – Handbarrow

Answer 4

For android, you can get the userIDs aka playerIDs starting in the 3.5.0+ version of the native Android SDK using the getPermissionSubscriptionState method and addSubscriptionObserver.

For more on using getPermissionSubscriptionState see: https://documentation.onesignal.com/docs/android-native-sdk#section--getpermissionsubscriptionstate-

For adding subscription observers see: https://documentation.onesignal.com/docs/android-native-sdk#section--addsubscriptionobserver-

There is a Native Android example on Github: https://github.com/OneSignal/OneSignal-Android-SDK

It is in the Examples folder labeled AndroidStudio

For iOS, you can get the playerIDs starting in the 2.5.0 version of the native iOS SDK using the getPermissionSubscriptionState method and addSubscriptionObserver.

For more on using getPermissionSubscriptionState see: https://documentation.onesignal.com/docs/ios-native-sdk#section--getpermissionsubscriptionstate-

For adding subscription observers see: https://documentation.onesignal.com/docs/ios-native-sdk#section--addsubscriptionobserver-

There is an iOS Example project in Swift on Github that might be of some assistance: https://github.com/OneSignal/OneSignal-iOS-SDK/tree/master/Examples

                .unsubscribeWhenNotificationsAreDisabled(true)

Answer 10

On OneSignal v11.0 is OneSignal.getDeviceState() is deprecated. To get userId use this

User.pushSubscription.id

And for token use this:

User.pushSubscription.token

For more follow this: https://documentation.onesignal.com/docs/mobile-sdk#subscription-id

@Lakshmi Reddy

in iOS, you can do like below:

OSPermissionSubscriptionState* status = [OneSignal getPermissionSubscriptionState];
    status.permissionStatus.hasPrompted
    status.permissionStatus.status
//                                                            <- OneSignal idsAvailable is deprecated.it's the alternative
    status.subscriptionStatus.subscribed
    status.subscriptionStatus.userSubscriptionSetting
    status.subscriptionStatus.userId
    status.subscriptionStatus.pushToken
NSLog(@"Push Token - %@",status.subscriptionStatus.pushToken);
NSLog(@"Push User ID - %@",status.subscriptionStatus.userId);

String UUID = OneSignal.getPermissionSubscriptionState().getSubscriptionStatus().getUserId()

This returns null unless the SubscriptionStatus is changed. Please follow the link below to know how you can get OneSignal userId from getSubscriptionStatus' JSONObject.

Use this code to get player id

public class MainActivity extends Activity implements OSSubscriptionObserver {
  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    OneSignal.addSubscriptionObserver(this);
  }
  
  public void onOSSubscriptionChanged(OSSubscriptionStateChanges stateChanges) {
    if (!stateChanges.getFrom().getSubscribed() &&
        stateChanges.getTo().getSubscribed()) {
         new AlertDialog.Builder(this)
             .setMessage("You've successfully subscribed to push notifications!")
             .show();
        // get player ID
        stateChanges.getTo().getUserId();
      }
   
      Log.i("Debug", "onOSSubscriptionChanged: " + stateChanges);
  }
}

Try this code to get the player id.

OneSignal Version - com.onesignal:OneSignal:4.7.4

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import androidx.annotation.Nullable;
import com.onesignal.OSSubscriptionObserver;
import com.onesignal.OSSubscriptionStateChanges;
import com.onesignal.OneSignal;

public class OneSignal_PlayerID extends Activity implement OSSubscriptionObserver {

private static String TAG = "OneSignal_PlayerID";
private static final String ONESIGNAL_APP_ID = "xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx";

@Override
protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    OneSignal.initWithContext(this);
    OneSignal.setAppId(ONESIGNAL_APP_ID);
    OneSignal.addSubscriptionObserver(this);

}

@Override
public void onOSSubscriptionChanged(OSSubscriptionStateChanges stateChanges) {
    if (stateChanges.getTo().isSubscribed()){
        String playerId = stateChanges.getTo().getUserId();
        if (playerId!=null){
            Log.i(TAG,"OneSignal Player ID : "+playerId);
        }
     }
   }
}

Answer 18

All of the above did not work for me in android. from the latest version, I got this solution.

var userId = OneSignal.getDeviceState().then((value) => {
  var deviceInfo= JSON.stringify(value);
  console.log(deviceInfo.userId)
})

for anyone like me can use the above code to get a unique UserId.
