Configuring Push in iOS
Following are the two ways to configure Push Notification
APNS Authentication Key :
To send push notifications to iOS users, it is required to generate the APNs Auth Key file for your application and upload it to the MoEngage dashboard. Refer to the link to generate Auth key.
APNS Certificate
First, you must create an APNS certificate and upload it to the dashboard to send push notifications on iOS. Follow the steps below to do that:
- Create an APNS certificate
- Convert the resultant certificate to .pem format
- Upload .pem file to MoEngage Dashboard
Follow the links on each step to complete it.
Project Capability Changes
Once the APNS Certificate is uploaded, enable Push Entitlement in the Xcode project. For that select your app target, then go to Capabilities. Here enable the Push Notifications capability for your app. Also, we make use of silent pushes to track uninstalls. For tracking uninstalls of all the users, enable Remote Notification background mode in the app's capabilities as shown below:
Push Registration
After this, you will have to register for push notification by using the registerForPushNotification() method of the plugin, as shown below:
import 'package:moengage_flutter/moengage_flutter.dart';
final MoEngageFlutter _moengagePlugin = MoEngageFlutter(YOUR_APP_ID);
_moengagePlugin.initialise();
_moengagePlugin.registerForPushNotification();
