    Update an APNs push configuration

    Copy link

    Updates a specific APNs (Apple Push Notification service) push configuration for the client app. You can also register the configurations on the Sendbird Dashboard under Settings > Chat > Push notifications.

    Note: If your HTTP request body contains a .p12 certificate file or a .p8 file as an authentication token, you should send a Multipart request .

    Update a .p12 certificate

    Copy link

    Just like uploading a file, send a Multipart request to update a .p12 certificate file.

    Request body

    The following table lists the properties of an HTTP request that this action supports.

    Optional
    Property nameTypeDescription

    apns_cert

    file

    In a form of the multipart/form-data content type, specifies the name of a .p12 file. Sendbird server scans the content of the file, finds out the certificate type, and then registers the file as the corresponding type. If you upload a wrong file, you will receive an error. You should specify either this property or the apns_type below to inform the server of which certificate type to update.

    apns_cert_env_type

    string

    Specifies the certificate type of the .p12 file. Acceptable values are development and production. You should specify either this property or the apns_cert above to inform the server of which certificate type to update.

    apns_cert_password

    string

    Specifies the password of the certificate file which has been set during the .p12 file export.

    has_unread_count_badge

    boolean

    Determines whether to badge the client app's icon with the number of a user's unread messages. (Default: true)

    content_available

    boolean

    Determines for the client app whether to perform a silent background update on a user's device. For more information, see the Apple Developer Documentation's Pushing Updates to Your App Silently. (Default: false)

    mutable_content

    boolean

    Determines for the client app whether to modify the payload of a push notification before it is displayed on a user's device. For more information, see the Apple Developer Documentation's Modifying Content in Newly Delivered Notifications. (Default: false)

    push_sound

    string

    Specifies the name of a sound file to be played when a push notification is delivered to the client app. The file can be in the app's main bundle or in the Library/Sounds folder of the app's data container.

    apns_type

    string

    (Deprecated) Specifies the certificate type of the .p12 file. Acceptable values are development and production. You should specify either this property or the apns_cert above to inform the server of which certificate type to update.

    Note: If you can't upload your .p12 file to Sendbird server using the Chat API or the Sendbird Dashboard, it might be some buggy behavior caused by the Keychain Access on your Mac.

    If you use a single CSR file which you previously uploaded to the Apple Developer Member Center, you might receive the same CSR file even when requesting separate files for Development and Production stages.

    To solve this problem, you must generate another CSR file and upload it to your Apple Developer Member Center. Then, export a .p12 file again, and upload the new file to Sendbird server.
