Missing Push Notification Entitlement - Your app appears to include API used to register with the Apple Push Notification service, but the app signature's entitlements do not include the "aps-environment" entitlement.

So, Im not using any API with push notification, it could be default Intel XDK Cordova API, how to fix this alert or how to delete API?
It should not be included by default, so you may want to look at the project page and make sure that "Notification" is not checked. This is under Plugins->"Featured and Custom plugins"->"Intel XDK Plugins", near the bottom, so you'll need to scroll down on the right to see it.

Dear developer,
We have discovered one or more issues with your recent delivery for
"----". Your delivery was successful, but you may wish to
correct the following issues in your next delivery:
Missing Push Notification Entitlement - Your app includes an API for
Apple's Push Notification service, but the aps-environment entitlement
is missing from the app's signature. To resolve this, make sure your
App ID is enabled for push notification in the Provisioning Portal.
Then, sign your app with a distribution provisioning profile that
includes the aps-environment entitlement. This will create the correct
signature, and you can resubmit your app. See "Provisioning and
Development" in the Local and Push Notification Programming Guide for
more information. If your app does not use the Apple Push Notification
service, no action is required. You may remove the API from future
submissions to stop this warning. If you use a third-party framework,
you may need to contact the developer for information on removing the
API.

My App ID is enabled for push notifications and i really don't understand why it isn't working.
You need to enable "Push Notifications" in your project settings. Check attached the screenshot.
As you may be aware, Google starts to use Firebase as analytics so I want to use it in my current project. I succesfully finished the implementation and upload project to iTunes Connect. But I got mail below. I do not want to use push notificaiton option of Firebase but its included in SDK. Do I need to remove it?how?
Will it cause to get rejection from review?

If the library that you're using has any calls to the push notification API and you don't have a provisioning profile/certificate that enables your app to receive push notifications then you will receive this email from Apple. However if you do not need to use push notifications in your app then you can ignore this email.
This email doesn't mean that your app will be rejected. I used to get this email all of the time when submitting games made with Unity and using a certain Prime31 plugin for native functionality, it also made use of the push notification API which caused me to receive this email.
You can ignore it, it will be fine.
Solution:
Make sure your app does not utilize Firebase Cloud Messaging;
In your Xcode project, select the application target;
Go to Info tab (alternatively, select Info.plist in Project Navigator);
Add FirebaseAppDelegateProxyEnabled and set it to NO;
Go to Capabilities tab and turn ON Push Notifications capabilities;
Re-generate provision profiles.
Objective: While this issue does not mean that your app will be rejected, the email is sent to everyone who has access to the app record on App Store Connect. For corporate team accounts this usually means that management stuff gets this "We have discovered one or more issues" email. For them it usually means that development team does something wrong. Hence, I've been asked to get rid of it.
If you using Firebase, but don't using firebase push notifications, to avoid this warning you should disable app delegate swizzling. Just adding FirebaseAppDelegateProxyEnabled BOOL key with value NO to your Info.plist. And Your future release builds will be without any warnings about Push notifications.
I got a email from itunes connect with the following message:
Missing Push Notification Entitlement - Your app appears to include
API used to register with the Apple Push Notification service, but the

Distribution provisioning profile that includes the "aps-environment"

But here is the funny thing I'm not using notifications it all. This what I have tried:
1.-I delete all the provisioning profiles manually and download them using Xcode (didn't work)
2.-I delete all the provisioning profiles manually and download from the apple developer portal (didn't work)
3.- I add it "DISABLE_PUSH_NOTIFICATIONS=1" to build settings (didn't work)
When I try to upload the app to itunes connect using Xcode is showing the provisioning profile XC:* I don't know if this has something to do with the Entitlement missing.
I as I said this app is not using push notifications on any way shape or form.
I'll really appreciate any pointers or work around this issue.
This is a bug from apple validator. Its coming from last 1 week. Read this blog
https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/11704#47536
If your application does not use notification then leave as it is. Apple will approve the app.
Are you using any libraries/frameworks/cocoapods? Maybe you have an analytics module (Crashlytics? Fabric.io?) that is registering your app for push notifications. Remove those and try again.
Do a search on registerUserNotificationSettings and see if anything pops up. If you're calling that API, the compiler is picking this up as a push notification app.
After uploading the App to AppStore, I am getting the following warning in an email, where as there are no Push Notifications in my App but there are some third party SDKs like Chartboost, Applovin, Revmob, Crashlytics etc. Has someone else also encountered this problem? If so, have you reached to some solution?

It means your provisioning profile does not support apns. create a provisioning profile with push notifications enabled and upload.
Check out for third party frameworks like
airpush
urbanship
etc...
These frameworks can register your app even though you don't register it in app delegate
Make sure push notification is disabled in these frameworks
I am using a third party library which has code for push notifications. But in our code, we don't have anything related to push notifications. So my profile is not enabled with APNS. When I try to push this to iTunes Connect for BETA TESTING, I'm getting below email from Apple. My question now is CAN I SUBMIT MY APP WITH APNS ENABLED even when I am not using push notifications? Will Apple reject my app if I do so?

1) Click on your project in Xcode (near the upper left hand corner of Xcode)
2) then click on Capabilities (near the top in the middle of Xcode)
3) Scroll down to Background Modes and expand to reveal the modes
4) Select Remote Notifications.
Doing this will give you the push entitlement and therefore the app submission should be ok.
Apple won't know you are not actually making use of push notifications, they will just be running a tool which detects you have push notification handling code in the app but don't have the push entitlement. Doing the above 4 steps should add the entitlement.
Hopefully that should be enough, however you may also need to enable push notifications in your provisioning profile. That's easy to do, the best overall guide to push which tells you how to do that is here:
