Apple Push Notification service server certificate update

[Carlos Verdier]

Hi

I just recieved this email from Apple:

Dear Carlos, 

On March 29, 2021, token and certificate-based HTTP/2 connections to the Apple Push Notification service must incorporate the new root certificate (AAACertificateServices 5/12/2020) which replaces the old GeoTrust Global CA root certificate. To ensure a seamless transition and to avoid push notification delivery failures, verify that both the old and new root certificates for the HTTP/2 interface are included in the Trust Store of each of your notification servers before March 29. 

Note that Apple Push Notification service SSL provider certificates issued to you by Apple do not need be to updated at this time. 

Learn more about connecting to APNs. 

If you have any questions, contact us. 

Best regards, 
Apple Developer Relations

I guess this impact more your side than mine, doesn't it? Just to make sure...

Thanks

Hi,

we still use APNS and haven't yet migrated to the HTTPS method. We'll migrate to that in the future and this should be seamless to your code as far as we currently understand this.
