Android notification .addAction deprecated in api 23

Question

What is the proper way to add an action to the notification in API 23 since addAction(int icon, CharSequence title, PendingIntent intent) is deprecated ? Couldn't find any example, thank you.

My old action: .addAction(R.drawable.ic_prev, "Previous", prevPendingIntent)

Answer 1

Instead of this one:

addAction (int icon, CharSequence title, PendingIntent intent)

This method was deprecated in API level 23.

Use:

addAction (Notification.Action action)

It's all in the developer docs!

So to use this:

first build your action with the NotificationCompat.Action.Builder

NotificationCompat.Action action = new NotificationCompat.Action.Builder(R.drawable.ic_prev, "Previous", prevPendingIntent).build();

Note: Use NotificationCompat.Action

And than add it to your notification:

yournotification.addAction(action);
