Overview

Required plan

This feature or setting is available to all customers on any Recurly Engage subscription plan.

Prerequisites & limitations

• Company or App Administrator permissions in Recurly Engage.
• Supported only on iOS and tvOS devices integrated with the Recurly Engage SDK.
• Your Apple Developer account must have an active membership to manage certificates and keys.

Definition

The APNs connector ingests your Apple Push credentials—Bundle ID, Team ID, Token Key, and Key ID—so that Recurly Engage can authenticate and send push notifications via APNs.

Key benefits

• Native iOS delivery: Reach iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV clients with rich notifications.
• Secure token-based auth: Use modern JWT token keys to avoid expired certificates.
• Centralized management: Store and rotate your APNs keys within Recurly Engage.

Key details

• APNs Token Key ID: The Key ID associated with your .p8 file.

Steps to obtain your APNs credentials

1. Log in to the Apple Developer Console.

2. Bundle ID: Go to Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles → Identifiers, select your app, and note the Bundle ID.

3. Team ID: Under Membership (top-right avatar → Membership), locate your Team ID.

4. Token Key & Key ID: Navigate to Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles → Keys, click + to create a new key with Apple Push Notification service (APNs) enabled.

   • Give your key a name.

Once imported, toggle your APNs credentials to Active in Recurly Engage to begin sending push prompts to iOS/tvOS users.
