Apple Push Notification Service (APNs) Configuration

LucasAcuna — Wed, 26 Jun 2024 14:27:31 GMT

I'm trying to configure the Apple Push Notification Service (APNS) in the SAS Tenant, but
I wasn't able to do it for the reason that Tenant notifies me that the key or the certificate are invalid, probably because they don't match.
Perhaps I'm doing wrong when I try to upload the key and certificate in the Tenant.

My key has the following format:

auth: 
 key_identifier: "K86*******"
 encryption_key: |

-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----
MIGTAgE*********************************************************
****************************************************************
****************************************************************
*****PR
-----END PRIVATE KEY-----

And my PEM certificate has the following information:

NOTE: I'm reading the pem certificate content with the following command in my Mac:

openssl x509 -in apns_certificate_cert.pem -text

I tried a couple of things but I did't manage to find the correct way to do it.

First I tried to upload the content as I mentioned before (copy the entire contents). Didn't work.
Second I tried to upload only -----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY----- *** -----END PRIVATE KEY----- part for the key field and -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- *** -----END CERTIFICATE----- part for the certificate field. Didn't work.
Lastly, I tried to add some metadata in the following way for the certificate field:

Bag Attributes
    friendlyName: Apple Sandbox Push Services: com.services.xxx.ar.beta
    localKeyID: E1 A2 6A 52 BE ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** **

****************************************************************

****************************************************************
****************************************************************
*****g==
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

It didn't work.

What's the correct way to upload this information?

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Perhaps I'm not reading the certificate in the correct way or the format for the key and certificates are incorrect.

Hope you can help me. Thanks!
