[firebase-messaging ] [web] - getToken() prompts notification permission in web

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues.

In-App Messaging

Which platforms are affected?

Web

Description

The current behavior of getToken() on web prompts the user with a permission dialog if notification permissions have not already been granted.

In comparison, the behavior on mobile platforms is already ideal, as getToken() operates silently regardless of the user's notification permission status. It returns null if the permission is not given.

Reproducing the issue

• On a web app, ensure that notification permissions are not granted.
• Call getToken().
• Observe that a permission dialog appears.

Hi @bf-vs, thanks for the report. However, I'm not entirely sure about your concern. Could you please clarify what you believe the expected behavior should be on the web?
