Hi Tamal,

According to the official documentation, you'll need to add your custom sound file to your project and configure the necessary settings.

I also found an old post suggesting a possible workaround.

Additionally, if you're working with Android, this Forge component might help you.

Thank you. But I want a proper solution where native custom Notification Sound will play. Also if app is not actively running.

Hi @Tamal Mondal 

Few pointers, hope this helps.

  • Android reads custom sounds from path: /res/raw/ 
  • You can upload your sound file at : resources/android/ 
  • Outsystems maps resources/android/ to /res/raw/ in APK.
  • The file must be lowercase with only .mp3, .wav, or .ogg and no spaces. 
  • Also, for OneSignal payload, please do not include extension.

This should work even when the app is killed because Android plays the sound from its native folder.
