I am trying to send notification to update a digital card in wallet/passbook using Pushsharp. I have double-checked all these:
But when I send the request for notification to APNs, the device does not hits back.
Note: I have either changed or removed urls, tokens and paths from code below because of confidentiality
Below is the code that I am using to send notification
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Newtonsoft.Json.Linq;
using PushSharp.Apple;
namespace NotificationPushsharp01
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
string certificatePath = @"PATH_OF_CERTIFICATE.p12";
X509Certificate2 clientCertificate = new X509Certificate2(System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(certificatePath), "12345");
// Configuration (NOTE: .pfx can also be used here)
var config = new ApnsConfiguration(ApnsConfiguration.ApnsServerEnvironment.Production, clientCertificate, validateIsApnsCertificate: false);
// Create a new broker
var apnsBroker = new ApnsServiceBroker(config);
System.Net.ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = System.Net.SecurityProtocolType.Tls12;
// Wire up events
apnsBroker.OnNotificationFailed += (notification, aggregateEx) =>
{
aggregateEx.Handle(ex =>
{
// See what kind of exception it was to further diagnose
if (ex is ApnsNotificationException notificationException)
{
// Deal with the failed notification
var apnsNotification = notificationException.Notification;
var statusCode = notificationException.ErrorStatusCode;
Console.WriteLine($"Apple Notification Failed: ID={apnsNotification.Identifier}, Code={statusCode}");
}
else
{
// Inner exception might hold more useful information like an ApnsConnectionException
Console.WriteLine($"Apple Notification Failed for some unknown reason : {ex.InnerException}");
}
// Mark it as handled
return true;
});
};
apnsBroker.OnNotificationSucceeded += (notification) =>
{
Console.WriteLine("Apple Notification Sent!");
};
// Start the broker
apnsBroker.Start();
apnsBroker.QueueNotification(new ApnsNotification
{
DeviceToken = "d30710c34af48d65e02db4c3db60fae04d283efaa105633f7c41b8d1963628fe",
Payload = JObject.Parse("{\"aps\":\"\"}")
});
// Stop the broker, wait for it to finish
// This isn't done after every message, but after you're
// done with the broker
apnsBroker.Stop();
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
}
Output of running the above code

You can ask any question related to code or anything. Currently, I am inspecting the device log. I'll update if I find something useful.
Thank you for your time.
I figured out what the problem was. The code given in question is correct. There's no error in it.
The API was returning HTTP 404 when the device was requesting serial numbers. This was because my pass's passTypeIdentifier contained dots in it. It was like pass.acbcd.abcd. I just configured my API to allow dots in the url and everything started working fine.
