Actionable alert event listener stopped working on iOS (2.3.0)

[sckumar]

Expected Behaviour

iOS actionable alert event listener should get called when user taps on action from the background push notification
pushObject.on("Approve").subscribe(notification => {
console.log("approved" + notification);
});

Actual Behaviour

Rather than calling actionable alert event, it triggers pushObject.on("registration").subscribe((registration: any) => {
console.log(notification.additionalData.foreground); // false
}

Reproduce Scenario (including but not limited to)

Run the application on iOS 13.0 and above

Steps to Reproduce

1. Register with categories
2. Send actionable alert with push notification
3. Perform action from background push notification

Sample Push Data Payload

{
"aps": {
"category": "authorize",
"title": "Payment is pending for approval",
"alert": "Payment of 3500 EUR is pending for your approval"
},
"actionInfo": {
"currentAction": "add",
"nextAction": "approve",
"referenceId": "11U5F1lGesVcxzo",
"rejectionInfo": null
}
}

Sample Code that illustrates the problem

this.platform.ready().then(() => {
const options: PushOptions = {
android: {},
windows: {},
ios: {
alert: "true",
badge: true,
sound: "true",
categories: {
authorize: {
yes: {
callback: "Approve",
title: "Approve",
foreground: true,
destructive: false
},
no: {
callback: "Reject",
title: "Reject",
foreground: true,
destructive: true
}
}
}
};
this.pushObject = this.push.init(options);
this.pushObject.on("registration").subscribe((registration: any) => {
}
this.pushObject.on("notification").subscribe((notification: any) => {
}
this.setCallbacks(this.pushObject);
});
setCallbacks(pushObject) {
pushObject.on("Approve").subscribe(notification => {
console.log("approved" + notification);
});
pushObject.on("Reject").subscribe(notification => {
console.log("approved" + notification);
});
}

@sckumar did you find any solution to this issue? I'm facing similar issue. I've also created a ticket #2916.

Anybody ? I heard it was working before. I can't get it to work iOS 10.x.
