Cannot send push notification via Azure Mobile Service

I have setup a Mobile Service in Azure and connected it to my Android app. Through this app I am calling the Azure API to insert an object into a database table linked to the mobile service.

I have written the script that is executed before it gets inserted. That script is intended to send a push notification to another device.

Now the case is, the object gets inserted into table but no push notification is received. What could be wrong? How can i debug?

Here's my insert script:

function insert(item, user, request) {

    var devices = tables.getTable('Devices');

    var receiverHandle;

    devices.where({userId: item.receiver}).read({
        success: populateHandle
    });

    request.execute({
        success: function() {
            // Write to the response and then send the notification in the background
            request.respond();
            console.log(item);
            push.gcm.send(item.handle, item, {
                success: function(response) {
                    console.log('Push notification sent: ', response);
                }, error: function(error) {
                    console.log('Error sending push notification: ', error);
                }
            });
        }
    });

    function populateHandle(results){
       receiverHandle =  results[0].handle;
    }

}

Although logs state successful delivery of push notification. I am not receiving it on my device.

Here is one of the logs:

Push notification sent: { isSuccessful: true, statusCode: 201, body: '', headers: { 'transfer-encoding': 'chunked', 'content-type': 'application/xml; charset=utf-8', server: 'Microsoft-HTTPAPI/2.0', date: 'Sun, 10 Aug 2014 15:01:52 GMT' }, md5: undefined }

Refer to Migrate a Mobile Service to use Notification Hubs.

Microsoft had been upgraded the Mobile Service, to push notifications powered by Notification Hubs. You will not be affected if you created the mobile service before the upgrade.

Base on the response { isSuccessful: true, statusCode: 201, body ... }, it indicate that your Mobile Service is the new version.

If you prefer to send push without Notification Hubs, don't use push.gcm.send, use the following code snippet instead.

var legacyGcm = require('dpush');
legacyGcm.send(your_GCM_APIKEY, regId, item, function (error, response) {
    if (!error) {
        // success code
    } else {
        // error handling
    }
});
