• All of these steps require you to have access to your Apple Developer account.

• Once on the account, navigate to the Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles tab on the account sidebar:

A key can be generated which gives the FCM full access over the Apple Push Notification service (APNs). On the “Keys” menu item, register a new key. The name of the key can be anything, however you must ensure the APNs service is enabled:

Click “Continue” & then “Save”. Once saved, you will be presented with a screen displaying the private “Key ID” & the ability to download the key. Copy the ID, and download the file to your local machine:
