Cloud IoT Core recommends HTTP bridge for that. (https://cloud.google.com/iot/docs/how-tos/http-bridge) To establish a connection to HTTP Bridge you have to prepare a private key signed JWT for authentication. The problems will be: where do you store the PK in a secure way in the browser session and how to make a relation between the browser user and IoT device identity?

Btw, 'Google Cloud Messaging' was not part of Google Cloud IoT, was a different product. Now Firebase Cloud Messaging is a recommended product https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/

use a JavaScript MQTT client, for example Eclipse Paho; this just needs an external IP.
