Is it possible to send images via FCM?

I've been receiving HTML5 pushes from different websites and some of them include images.

I couldn't find in the FCM documentation how to send images; is it possible?

Thanks

This is not the usual use-case for Push Notifications. For FCM, it is strongly advised not to send over images (if ever you manage to), primarily because of the payload size limit - 2KB for notification, 4KB for data.

I suggest using Firebase Storage for storing the images, then downloading it in the client when needed, sending the download URL in the push notification as a workaround.
