iOS Push notification service extension bundle id - ios

I am confused why there should be a separate bundle id for the notification service. But, since that the case should the push notification enabled in both the app id and the notification id?
Should the Add groups be enabled too?
After that, when to use notifications provisioning profile created for notification id and when to use the ones created for the app id?

iOS custom push notification via Notification Service Extension

I am stuck with custom push notification. What I am looking to acheive is to have image in notification. For that, the following things has been done:
Created Notification Service Extension
Enabled App groups and push notification in both- app and notification extension.
Trying to build app, but unable to install on iPhone with the error:
having same bundle id in app and extension
Do I need to create separate bundle id and provisioning profiles for Notification Extension? If yes then how notification service class methods will be called?
Waiting for your early response. Thank You.
Expectation- Need to implement custom push notification
The Notification Service Extension is defined as a target in you project settings, hence it needs a unique identifier different than your app's id. It's recommended that you format the extension's id like so: App_Bundle_Id.NotificationServiceExtension
Bundle Identifiers are unrelated to the method calls, iOS will handle them for you. Whenever a device receives a push notification, the extension is called (if configured properly) so you can execute your logic.

VoIP notifications the certificate subject must end with ".voip" and the device token app bundle ends with ".voip"

I have error in twilio, says "VoIP notifications the certificate subject must end with ".voip" and the device token app bundle ends with ".voip".
when I check the similar questions found that solution is to change the
" solution was BundleID+.voip"
I tried to create a bundleId ending with ".voip" in developer.apple, though id is unique but failed to create. whenever i add .voip it does not allow me to create.
Can some me tell me how to apply the above solution.
how, where, and what i have to do to apply the solution.
Actually, you don't have to create new ID. Instead ask your backend team to push Voip notification to APNS server with header field:
apns-topic: "com.company.app.voip"
Where com.company.app is the registed bundle ID.
Maybe you can use below tool to test push notifications.
https://github.com/lalkrishna/Pushfy/releases
In pushfy, select push type as "voip" and App ID BundleID+".voip"

CleverTap notification settings in iOS

I am using firebase in my iOS project for notifications. Instead of the APNS certificates, I am using auth keys (that can be downloaded only once). Now the problem is, the auth key file that has been uploaded on Firebase is lost as it was uploaded by some other developer an year ago. Now I need that auth key file to upload on CleverTap for notifications to work but as the file is lost, I am not able to do so.
Now I can't upload a new key on firebase as the existing users might not receive notifications. What option do I have to make it work so that the existing users continue receiving the notifications and I can make CleverTap notifications work?
Clevertap push notifications config works with both Auth keys & push certificate.
If you don't have auth key, you can upload the valid push certificate to make it work.
Once the above process is done, if you initiate any push notification all your users will receive that. It does not matter whether they are new or existing users.

How many certificates required to submit my app using local notification onto App Store?

I am using local notification for my reminder app. Currently trying to certify my app. In the app ID in developer account, I checked the push notification option for this app, but cannot find resources explaining how to certify for local notification function.
Thanks in advance!
Local notifications are not the same thing as (remote) push notifications (which do require push notification certificates and capabilities). You only need your app store provisioning profile to submit an app incorporating local notification to the store.
Apple has a great introductory overview document. For both local and remote notifications, users have to give your app permission.

push notification to ios device

i am building an application that is two parts. web and mobile.
in brief i want to push a notification for the mobile user when a specific thing is received from the server.
for example, if the web user added a task for the mobile user, then: a notification on the mobile appears to inform the mobile user that there is something new in the app. (just like when using facebook)
any one can help me with implementing this?
Note: i configure my application to be apple to receive notifications and it do so.
this is how to push notification from the ios device to itself:
6.3. From the App
You can also send push notifications directly from a mobile application. Remember that you need to have enabled this feature in the Parse app's settings tab by selecting "Yes" under the heading "Client push enabled?". There are several methods that can be called to send push notifications. You can consult the full list in the iOS API documentation. Here is an example:
// Create our Installation query
PFQuery *pushQuery = [PFInstallation query];
[pushQuery whereKey:#"deviceType" equalTo:#"ios"];
// Send push notification to query
[PFPush sendPushMessageToQueryInBackground:pushQuery
withMessage:#"Hello World!"];
any one knows how this can work ?? i can not import these methods !!!
