How to enable push notifications in Xcode 12

Question

I am trying to set push notifications for firebase phone authentication. but i could't find push notification here . What can i do?

Answer 1

In Signing & Capability -> Click on "+Capability" and type "Push" you will get Push Notification Option. Now long press on Push Notifications and Drop in your Signing & Capability Window.

Answer 2

The reason that the Push Notifications is not possible to enable is that you need to have a bundle identifier which has it enabled.

To create a new bundle identifier where push notifications are enabled do the following:

1. Go to the following URL to create a new identifier: https://developer.apple.com/account/resources/identifiers/list
   • Click on new Identifier (plus symbol, as indicated in the image below)

2. Select the App IDs alternative and press continue.

3. Select App and click continue

4. Choose a fitting name for your identifier (something like com.foo.bar )
   • Here it is required to choose the explicit alternative to be able to enable push notifications with your bundle identifier
   • Select the wanted capabilities and you're done with creating a new bundle identifier.

5. Finally you need to add the new bundle identifier in the Xcode project like shown in the figure below.

Answer 3

Not all capabilities are available depending on if you are using a paid Developer Program account, or working with Xcode's free provisioning.
