Notification.addAction not working in Android O

Question

Below mentioned code is working for all devices below android O verison. For android O, addAction() method is not working i.e. button click is not working in android O.
Any help would be appreciated.

 NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager) context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);

            Intent mediaPlayerReceiver = new Intent("com.consult.news.receiver.ACTION_PLAY");
            mediaPlayerReceiver.putExtra("NewsArticle", news);
            PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, mediaPlayerReceiver, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);

            Intent dismissNotification = new Intent("com.consult.news.receiver.DISMISS");
            dismissNotification.putExtra("Notification_ID", 1);
            PendingIntent dismissNotificationIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, dismissNotification, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);

            if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
                String CHANNEL_ID = "my_channel_01";
                String CHANNEL_NAME = "my Channel Name";

                NotificationChannel notificationChannel = new NotificationChannel(CHANNEL_ID, CHANNEL_NAME, NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_HIGH);
                notificationChannel.enableLights(true);
                notificationChannel.setLightColor(Color.RED);
                notificationChannel.setShowBadge(true);
                notificationChannel.setLockscreenVisibility(Notification.VISIBILITY_PUBLIC);
                notificationManager.createNotificationChannel(notificationChannel);
            }

            NotificationCompat.Builder builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context, "my_channel_01")
                    .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_notification_white)
                    .setColor(ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.accent))
                    .setContentTitle(context.getString(R.string.Consult_Univadis_Title))
                    .setStyle(new NotificationCompat.BigTextStyle().bigText(news))
                    .addAction(isPlaying ? R.drawable.ic_notification_white : R.drawable.ic_notification_white, isPlaying ? "Play" : "Pause", pendingIntent)
                    .addAction(R.drawable.ic_notification_white, "Close", dismissNotificationIntent)
                    .setOngoing(true)
                    .setAutoCancel(false);

            notificationManager.notify(1, builder.build());

Answer 1

I ran into the same, in Android Oreo you need to make it a explicit Intent (is not enough with putting the receiver on the manifest, in fact, it won't pay attention to that), so when you make the intent, make it explicit using the setClass method:

Intent mediaPlayerReceiver = new Intent("com.consult.news.receiver.ACTION_PLAY");
mediaPlayerReceiver.putExtra("NewsArticle", news);
mediaPlayerReceiver.setClass(this, YourReceiver.class);

Where "this" is the Context and YourReceiver, is the Receiver class that you are expecting to listen to the action.

You will have to do the same for the dismissNotification intent

Let me know if this worked for you.
