  // Since android Oreo notification channel is needed.
            if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
                NotificationChannel channel = new NotificationChannel(channelId,
                        getString(R.string.app_name),
                        NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_HIGH);

                AudioAttributes attributes = new AudioAttributes.Builder()
                        .setUsage(AudioAttributes.USAGE_NOTIFICATION)
                        .build();


                channel.setDescription(data.get("body"));
                channel.enableLights(true);
                channel.enableVibration(true);
                channel.setSound(SoundUri, attributes); // This is IMPORTANT

                notificationManager.createNotificationChannel(channel);


            }
