I am creating one application where I created two notification channel. Let say,
Channel 1 : to show one type of notification
channel 2 : to show another type of notification
Now I want to dismiss all notification on channel 1 when user click on any one of the notification of channel 2.
Till now I only found solution that to keep track of all notification ID of channel 1 and after that cancel notification with those id.
Is there is better way to do, without keeping track of IDs??
Thanks in advance :)

Since Android 8 notification channels required for notifications. My Question is each and every notification should have different notification channel Id or same channel Id?
Notification channels let you group related types of notifications together.
Why would you need that?
A user may only want to disable notifications for a specific type. Let's say in a Calendar App he may want to disable all notifications which are of type reminder. Instead of disabling all notifications, the user (if a channel for reminders exists) can now specifically say: Ok I only want to disable reminder notifications.
In short: It enables the user to filter notifications more granular.
Just provide a different notification channel for each different notification "type" (meaning: they do not relate to each other).
Ok very good question, I am sure, I am late to answer but today I came across same problem. Actually I am showing multiple notification and when I long press on it and click on turn off notifications for my app, I came to know that same channel is being added multiple times as shown below:
So as and when I show the notification, I was using unique channel id while showing the notification, so even though notification channel name is same but channel id is different & unique, it keeps adding new channel each time I show the notification, that is completely wrong. It unnecessary ads multiple channels, very hard to turn off notification and many more reason.
So, in short, while you show particular group's notification, please use same channel name and channel id. Notification of particular type is grouped under channel id, not the channel name technically. But user can see the channel name only when he wants to turn it off.
Hope this answer your query and it will also help to others who are facing same issue of duplicate or multiple channels being created on each notification.
I know how to create notification and notification channel in an Android app.
I showed many examples that say create notification channel while you generate a notification from FCM listener. So when the app receives notification at that point it generates channel.
But I saw in many apps, it create all channels without receiving any notification.
Question: From where we should create a notification channel?
From the docs:
Creating an existing notification channel with its original values
performs no operation, so it's safe to call this code when starting an
app.
I am having a problem while I am open app on another screen the push notification of sendbird is not sent , I need to update the message count of my messages in sendbird , how can I do that ?
Please Check point 4 in this link answer in sendBird help center the question Why am I not receiving push notifications?
.
It says :
A user must be offline - they must be disconnected from ALL devices.
So when the app in the foreground that mean the sendBird user is online and the way they implement it that they don't send notification for the online users which is disappointing to know.
I agree with #Nawaf. I should add if it works for anyone:
Keep unread message count as 1 or coloured dot on your notification badge inside app, when you get SendBird notification on your launcher activity intent. Hide the dot when user clicks the badge.
I'm creating a very simple application for myself. Basically, it gives me a certain notification exactly every 2 hours.
The problem is when I don't "check" the notification for 2 hours and the next notification is supposed to come around. It sends a notification even though another notification already exists.
I'm simply sending notifications with NotificationManager.
Is there a way to check if previous notification already exists and only send another one if it doesn't?
Assuming you are using the same notification id (so that only one notification appears in the notification tray), you can use setOnlyAlertOnce(true) to ensure that sound/vibrate only plays the very first time a notification is posted and not when an existing notification is updated.
I am working in application that contain lost of push notifications, in each push notification , i have to put play icon to play the music of each notification. problem when i am updating the notification means play to pause or pause to play. than notification update but the notification goes on the top each time.

You can use the setpriority to set the priority of the notification..
Check this post for more info
The method setPriority (int) is undefined for the type Notification
