Open Support for "New" Edge browser?

Hey! Been running Join for a couple of years now and it's amazing!

Wanted to try Microsoft's new Edge browser out since it's built with Chromium and it looks pretty good so far!
However I really want to use Join, it's kind of a deal breaker.

On join settings I see

This device:
undefined

And I get these errors when running diagnostics.
I've logged in and out a couple of times.

Testing registration on Join's server... Must provide regId
Sending Push to server... "No devices to send to"
Receiving Push from server... Didn't receive push after 5 seconds. Error: undefined: Try the steps mentioned in the FAQ here
Receiving Push with GCM key... "No devices to send to"
Comparing GCM keys... No device to send message to

Thanks!

 

Oh, that's to bad! I thought they would have basically the same API since they both are built with Chromium?

You're talking about the "new " Edge right, not the old one that was awful!

 

Any information here that could be useful?

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/extensions/api-support/supported-apis

Maybe it's possible to get Microsoft to implement the missing API's?

 

Great, thanks!

 

No updates on this?

 

Did you happen to see the Edge devs response? Is that a solution or are they trying to say No and close the issue?

We do not have any plans of providing chrome.gcm in Edge because it depends on Google's push messaging service. The use of GCM requires developers to register with developers.google.com, which creates a secret used for authentication. This prevents us from standing up a Microsoft service that offers equivalent functionality since we cannot authenticate developers.

As an alternative, we request you to use service worker push messaging as a replacement for chrome.gcm in Edge. Service worker push messaging uses Microsoft’s push messaging service in Edge and Google’s push messaging service in Chrome. Both push services implement the same IETF standards so the push messaging services should work the same. Here’s a good reference for the same: https://web-push-book.gauntface.com/introduction/.​

 

I didn't see that. Thanks for sharing. That is very exciting.
