@firebase/messaging@0.13.0

Minor Changes

• 3b337b9 #9917 - Add new API and deprecate old API for creating and deleting fcm registration

Patch Changes

• a1a2455 #9916 - Fix delivery metrics Firelog flushing when BigQuery export is enabled: schedule the first flush immediately (next timer tick) instead of waiting a full LOG_INTERVAL_IN_MS, start processing only when there are queued events (so enabling export with an empty queue does not arm a day-long idle timer that blocks later stageLog flushes), and ensure staging a log starts the service when needed. When export is disabled, clear any queued events and cancel pending flush timers immediately (rather than waiting for the background loop).

Firebase AI Logic now supports more options for managing Gemini Live API sessions: compressing the session context window and resuming a session. These options enable resilient, long-running conversational app features even on spotty networks and for users returning to a conversation.

Firebase AI Logic supports the latest Gemini stable model: gemini-3.5-flash. This model can be accessed via either the Gemini Developer API or the Vertex AI Gemini API. Migration from preview version requires updating model name from gemini-3-flash-preview to gemini-3.5-flash, reviewing pricing changes, testing prompts (default thinking level changed from HIGH to MEDIUM), and removing temperature, topP, topK parameters.

Firebase AI Logic now supports specifying aspect ratio and resolution of output images when using image-generating Gemini models ("Nano Banana" models).

The Firebase Android SDKs for App Distribution have been updated.

The Firebase Admin Go SDK (v4.20.0) is now available. The Admin SDK for Go now requires Go 1.25 or higher. This release comes with a new Firebase Phone Number Verification API and new features in the Cloud Messaging API.

The Firebase Admin Node.js SDK (v13.10.0) is now available. This release comes with new features in Firebase App Check.

The Firebase Admin Java SDK (v9.9.0) is now available. This release comes with a new Firebase Phone Number Verification API and new features in the Cloud Messaging API. It also includes improvements in Firebase Remote Config.

The Firebase SDK for Flutter (v4.14.0) is now available. This release includes changes in Core, and bug fixes in Core.

The Firebase SDK for Unity (v13.11.0) is now available. This release includes new features in Firebase AI, Cloud Functions, and Cloud Storage; changes to Firebase AI; bug fixes in Firebase AI and Cloud Functions; and other changes and fixes.

Firebase AI Logic now supports Grounding with Google Maps integration, allowing you to connect Gemini models to geospatial data from Google Maps to build location-aware features in your apps. This reduces model hallucinations and provides access to up-to-date, real-time business details.
