Parse Actionable Notifications Not Sending from iPhone - ios

Question

I have tried adding in Actionable Notifications for my Parse app, iPrayed 4 U. In the app, someone can "Pray" for you by clicking a button. Doing so runs a Cloud Code that includes a category for the APNS payload. In my AppDelegate I have:
if ([application respondsToSelector:#selector(isRegisteredForRemoteNotifications)])
{UIUserNotificationType types = UIUserNotificationTypeBadge |
UIUserNotificationTypeSound | UIUserNotificationTypeAlert;
UIMutableUserNotificationAction *acceptAction =
[[UIMutableUserNotificationAction alloc] init];
acceptAction.identifier = #"THANKS_IDENTIFIER";
acceptAction.title = #"Say Thanks";
// Given seconds, not minutes, to run in the background
acceptAction.activationMode = UIUserNotificationActivationModeBackground;
acceptAction.destructive = NO;
acceptAction.authenticationRequired = NO;
UIMutableUserNotificationCategory *inviteCategory =
[[UIMutableUserNotificationCategory alloc] init];
inviteCategory.identifier = #"TAGGED_CATEGORY";
[inviteCategory setActions:#[acceptAction]
forContext:UIUserNotificationActionContextDefault];
NSSet *categories = [NSSet setWithObjects:inviteCategory, nil];
UIUserNotificationSettings *settings =
[UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:types categories:categories];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication]
registerUserNotificationSettings:settings];
[application registerForRemoteNotifications];
}
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application
handleActionWithIdentifier:(NSString *)identifier
forRemoteNotification:(NSDictionary *)notification
completionHandler:(void (^)())completionHandler {
if ([identifier isEqualToString:#"THANKS_IDENTIFIER"]) {
[self handleAcceptActionWithNotification:notification];
NSLog(#"Handled");
}
// Must be called when finished
completionHandler();
}
-(void) handleAcceptActionWithNotification:(NSDictionary *)notification {
NSLog(#"SendingThanks");
PFUser *me = [PFUser currentUser];
NSString *theirname = me[#"additional"];
NSString *myAlertString=notification[#"loc-args"];
NSLog(#"%#", notification);
[PFCloud callFunctionInBackground:#"thankYou"
withParameters:#{#"recipientId": myAlertString, #"theirName": theirname}
block:^(NSString *success, NSError *error) {
if (!error) {
// Push sent successfully
}
}];
}
So, I run to testing. When someone prays for me, I get the notification on my iPhone, drag down and there is the "Say Thanks" button. I click it, but nothing happens. Here is the kicker. Normally I would say, "Well, I messed something up, start debugging". However, I also have an Apple Watch. When I click the Say Thanks button attached to the notification on my Watch, it sends the Push, vs. doing nothing when I click the same button on my iPhone.
Any thoughts as to what is going on here?
UPDATE:
In console, when it fails, I get:
[Error]: The request timed out. (Code: 100, Version: 1.8.2)
2015-10-08 13:42:49.424 iPrayed[2231:712503] [Error]: Network connection failed. Making attempt 1 after sleeping for 1.463493 seconds.
Eventually I get a success call, but by that time it still doesn't actually send the Push. Any idea why it is happening only when tapped from iPhone and not watch?

Answer 1

Because you call completionHandler() before PFCloud finished. You need call completionHandler() in completionBlock
Do this.
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application handleActionWithIdentifier:(NSString *)identifier forRemoteNotification:(NSDictionary *)notification completionHandler:(void (^)())completionHandler {
if ([identifier isEqualToString:#"THANKS_IDENTIFIER"]) {
PFUser *me = [PFUser currentUser];
NSString *theirname = me[#"additional"];
NSString *myAlertString=notification[#"loc-args"];
[PFCloud callFunctionInBackground:#"thankYou" withParameters:#{#"recipientId": myAlertString, #"theirName": theirname} block:^(NSString *success, NSError *error) {
completionHandler();
}];
} else {
completionHandler();
}
}
