iOS push notification problem

General
1

I am trying to send push notification to a specific device but that specific device does not receive notification. I am using the following method:
-(void)sendMessageAsPushNotificationAsync:(NSString *)message forDevice:(NSString *)deviceId
{
DeliveryOptions *deliveryOptions = [DeliveryOptions new];
deliveryOptions.pushSinglecast = (NSMutableArray *) @[deviceId];

[DeliveryOptions deliveryOptionsForNotification:PUSH_ONLY];

PublishOptions *publishOptions = [PublishOptions new];

publishOptions.headers = @{
@“1”: @“ios-badge”,
@“Sound12.aif”:@“ios-sound”,
};

[backendless.messagingService
publish:@“default” message:message publishOptions:publishOptions deliveryOptions:deliveryOptions
response:^(MessageStatus *messageStatus)
{
NSLog(@“MessageStatus = %@ <%@>”, messageStatus.messageId, messageStatus.status);
}
error:^(Fault *fault)
{
NSLog(@“FAULT = %@”, fault);
}
];
}
I think the problem is deviceId, I am passing device token to this method, what is deviceId and how can I retrieve it ?

Hi Ali,

Please see the following sample which demonstrates how to register device and receive push notifications:

Thanks for you reply, I have already checked this sample, the problem is

‘didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceId’ delegate is not called. I actually want to sent push notification to a specific device and for that i need deviceId, how can I get this deviceId while registering app for push notification ? and registerDeviceToken returns a string that is different from the deviceID saved for the device to my Messages console.
Please see the file attached.

AppDelegate.rtf (5.16kB)

I was having problem with the deviceId.

UIDevice *device = [UIDevice currentDevice];
NSString *deviceId = [[device identifierForVendor] UUIDString];

Using these two lines get the deviceId of the device and save it in your database and when ever you want to send push notification to a specific device then get the deviceId of that specific device from your database and then use the method I added in my question on the top.
