Enable Huawei Push Kit

This topic describes how to enable the Huawei Push Kit service for an app, enable map and push notifications for app packages targeted at users outside mainland China, and get the configurations of Huawei Push Kit. This topic applies when you build Tuya-powered OEM apps.

Preparation

• Register and create a Huawei developer account and complete the identity verification. We recommend that you register the developer account as an organization entity.

• Go to Tuya Developer Platform > App > OEM App, click the target OEM app, and then on the app details page that appears, find the package name for Android.

  

• Go to Tuya Developer Platform > App > OEM App > Required Setting, select the target app, click Certificate for Android, and then get the value of SHA256 in the Huawei Channel section.

  

  

Procedure

1. Go to AppGallery Connect.

   

2. Click My apps.

   

3. Click New app.

   

4. Enter the required information.

   • Package type: Select APK(Android app).

   • Devices: Select Mobile phone.

   • App name: Enter your app name.

   • App category: Select App.

   • Default language: Select a language as the default language of the app as needed, for example, English (US).

   • Add to project: Select this checkbox to configure Huawei Push Kit and add the app to the project.

     

5. After the app is created, click My apps in the top menu bar to switch to My projects.

   If you use the HUAWEI international package to launch in outside mainland China, it is recommended that you do not select the China region for the data processing location.
