Apple Push Notification services (APNs) is changing.

Question

Hi.

I received an email yesterday for apple developer. The email said Apple is going to change the Certification Authority (CA) for Apple Push Notifications services (APNs) in** sandbox and Production** environment. We use Azure Notification Hubs with Apple Notification Services, but I am not clear if my team has to do some changes in the configuration in the app, or if, on the contrary, Microsoft is going to make the changes in their software to be able to keep working against Apple Notification Service?

I checked the interface in Azure Notification Hubs and there is no change in the configuration.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

I have the same question, just want to be sure if Microsoft will handle the transition to the new certificate..

Answer 2

I contacted Azure support for this matter and their answer was: "I would like to inform you that the new root certificate used by Apple is already present in the trust store of the Notification Hub. Therefore from notification hub side, this change will not impact Azure Notification Hubs.". Finally a clear answer regarding this.
