Getting Started with C2DM

Follow these steps to properly configure your Titanium application to use C2DM as the transport for Urban Airship push notifications.

NOTE

You will not need to make the changes to the AndroidManifest.xml that you see in the setup guide. This will be done for you automatically during the application build process.

Step 1: Sign up for your C2DM account

Sign up for a C2DM account here http://code.google.com/android/c2dm/signup.html

• You will need to enter your Google account id
• This is the ID that you will use for C2DM_SENDER in your application JS file

Step 2: C2DM Authorization Token

You need a C2DM Authorization Token to put into the settings of your application.

• Download and run this python script to generate your authorization token http://appcelerator-eap.s3.amazonaws.com/Modules/clientauth.py
• Navigate to http://go.urbanairship.com
• Edit Application and enter your Android Package name and C2DM Authorization Token that was just generated

Step 3: Configure C2DM Transport

Set the Urban Airship options in your airshipconfig.properties file to use the C2DM transport.

• Set the "transport" option to "c2dm"
• Set the "c2dmSender" option to your Google Account ID

  transport = c2dm
  c2dmSender = username@gmail.com
