This questions has been asked and answered many times before, yet I can't figure out what I am doing wrong. Sending notifications to the whole app from Firebase console works, but if I send to a single token, I get error in firebase console: "Firebase Invalid registration token. Check the token format"
I am testing the app on an Iphone device.
- created new key at https://developer.apple.com/account/ios/authkey/ downloaded the p8 file
- got the Team ID from https://developer.apple.com/account/#/membership/
- uploaded the .p8 file in firebase console under Settings/cloud messaging
- in .xcworspace under Targets/Capabilities/Push Notifications : ON
- myproject.entitlements file contains APS Environment String development.
NOTE: In developer.apple.com, under APP IDs, if I click on myApp id and scroll down, Push Notifications Configurable & Development show in yellow color and not green.
