    TUICallKit components support offline push through the integration of the push plugin. To help developers easily implement offline push in their projects, we recommend using the TIMPush plugin (paid). TIMPush push plugin has the following advantages:
    The integration cycle is short, with full-manufacturer access expected to take only 30 minutes.
    Supports data statistics and link tracking, making it convenient for you to view various indicators such as push reach rate, click-through rate, and conversion rate.
    Supports full-staff/Tag push, allowing you to push marketing ads, notifications, news information, and other content to all users or specified groups.
    Supports cross-platform frameworks like uni-app and Flutter.

    Configuring Offline Push

    Step 1. Integrate the TIMPush component

    1. The TIMPush component supports CocoaPods integration. You need to add the component dependencies in the Podfile.
    target 'YourAppName' do
    # Uncommment the next line if you're using Swift or would like to use dynamic frameworks
    use_frameworks!
    use_modular_headers!
    # Pods for Example
    pod 'TIMPush', '7.9.5668'
    end
    2. Run the following command to install the TIMPush component.
    pod install # If you cannot install the latest version of TUIKit, run the following command to update the local CocoaPods repository list. pod repo update

    Step 2: Activate remote push for the app

    1. Log in to the Apple Developer Center website, click on the Certificates, IDs & Profiles tab, then Identifiers, and enter Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles page.
    
    
    
    2. Click the + next to Identifiers.
    
    
    
    3. You can follow the steps below to create a new AppID, or add the Push Notification Service to your existing AppID.
    Note:
    It's important to note that your app's Bundle ID must not use the wildcard *, otherwise, the remote push service cannot be used.
    4. Select App IDs, click Continue to proceed to the next step.
    5. Select App, click Continue to proceed to the next step.
    6. Configure the Bundle ID and other information, click Continue to proceed to the next step.
    7. Select Push Notifications to activate the remote push service.
    
    
    

    Step 3: Generate the push certificate

    1. Select your AppID, find the Push Notifications configuration option, and choose Configure.
    
    
    
    2. In the Apple Push Notification service SSL Certificates window, you will see two SSL Certificates, one for the Development environment and one for the Production environment.
    3. 
    We
    first select the development environment (Development) option Create Certificate, and the system will prompt us that a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is needed.
    4. On a Mac, open the Keychain Access tool (Keychain Access), and from the menu, select Keychain Access > Certificate Assistant > Request a Certificate From a Certificate Authority (Keychain Access > Certificate Assistant > Request a Certificate From a Certificate Authority).
    
    
    
    5. Enter your email address, common name (your name or company name), select Saved to disk, and click Continue. The system will generate a *.certSigningRequest file.
    6. Go back to the page on the Apple Developer website from Step 3 just now and click "Choose File" to upload the generated *.certSigningRequest file.
    
    
    
    7. Click Continue to generate the push certificate.
    8. Click Download to download the Development SSL Certificate for the development environment to your local machine.
    9. Follow the steps 1-8 again to download the Production SSL Certificate for your production environment to your local system.
    Note:
    The production environment certificate is actually a merged certificate of Sandbox and Production, which can be used for both the development and production environments.
    10. Double-click the downloaded SSL Certificate for both the development and production environments, and the system will import it into your keychain.
    11. Open the Keychain Access app, log in to My Certificates, right-click to export the P12 files for both the newly created development environment (Apple Development IOS Push Service) and the production environment (Apple Push Services).
    Note:
    When saving the P12 file, be sure to set a password.

    Step 4: Upload the certificate to the Tencent RTC console

    1. Log in to the Tencent RTC Console.
    2. Click on the Target Application Card, select the Chat Tag on the left, click on Push, then click on Access settings.
    
    
    
    3. Click on iOS Native Offline Push Settings on the right side to Add Certificate.
    4. Select Certificate Type, upload the iOS Certificate (p12), set the Certificate Password, and click on Confirm.
    
    
    
    Note:
    We recommend naming the uploaded certificate in English (special characters such as brackets are not allowed).
    You need to set a password for the uploaded certificate. Without a password, push notifications cannot be received.
    For an app published on App Store, the environment of the certificate must be the production environment. Otherwise, push notifications cannot be received.
    The uploaded .p12 certificate must be your own authentic and valid certificate.
    5. After the push certificate information is generated, record the certificate ID. It will be used as a mandatory parameter in Step 6: Configure push parameters.
    

    Step 5: Complete the project configuration

    To add the required permissions to your application, enable the push notification feature in your Xcode project.
    Open the Xcode project, go to Project > Target > Capabilities page, click the + inside the red frame, then select and add Push Notifications. The result after adding is shown in the yellow frame in the picture:
    
    
    

    Step 6: Configure push parameters

    You need to implement the protocol method offlinePushCertificateID in AppDelegate to return the Certificate ID.
    Swift
    Objective-C
    import TIMPush
    
    func offlinePushCertificateID() -> Int32 {
    return kAPNSBusiId
    }
    #pragma mark - TIMPush
    
    - (int)offlinePushCertificateID {
    return kAPNSBusiId;
    }

    Step 7: Dial offline push calls

    Please set the offlinePushInfo field of params when making a call using call or groupCall.
    Swift
    Objective-C
    import TUICallKit_Swift
    import TUICallEngine
    
    let pushInfo: TUIOfflinePushInfo = TUIOfflinePushInfo()
    pushInfo.title = ""
    pushInfo.desc = "You have a new call"
    pushInfo.iOSPushType = .apns
    pushInfo.ignoreIOSBadge = false
    pushInfo.iOSSound = "phone_ringing.mp3"
    pushInfo.androidSound = "phone_ringing"
    // For OPPO, you must set the `ChannelID` to receive push messages. The `ChannelID` must be identical with that in the console.
    // OPPO must set a ChannelID to receive push messages. This channelID needs to be the same as the console.
    pushInfo.androidOPPOChannelID = "tuikit"
    // FCM channel ID, you need change PrivateConstants.java and set "fcmPushChannelId"
    pushInfo.androidFCMChannelID = "fcm_push_channel"
    // VIVO message type: 0-push message, 1-System message(have a higher delivery rate)
    pushInfo.androidVIVOClassification = 1
    // HuaWei message type: https://developer.huawei.com/consumer/cn/doc/development/HMSCore-Guides/message-classification-0000001149358835
    pushInfo.androidHuaWeiCategory = "IM"
    
    let params = TUICallParams()
    params.userData = "User Data"
    params.timeout = 30
    params.offlinePushInfo = pushInfo
    
    // Single person call example, similar for group call
    TUICallKit.createInstance().call(userId: "123456", callMediaType: .audio, params: params) {
    
    } fail: { code, message in
    
    }
    #import <TUICallKit_Swift/TUICallKit_Swift-Swift.h>
    #import <TUICallEngine/TUICallEngine.h>
    
    - (TUICallParams *)getCallParams {
    TUIOfflinePushInfo *offlinePushInfo = [self createOfflinePushInfo];
    TUICallParams *callParams = [TUICallParams new];
    callParams.offlinePushInfo = offlinePushInfo;
    callParams.timeout = 30;
    return callParams;
    }
    
    - (TUIOfflinePushInfo *)createOfflinePushInfo {
    TUIOfflinePushInfo *pushInfo = [TUIOfflinePushInfo new];
    pushInfo.title = @"";
    pushInfo.desc = @"You have a new call";
    pushInfo.iOSPushType = TUICallIOSOfflinePushTypeAPNs;
    pushInfo.ignoreIOSBadge = NO;
    pushInfo.iOSSound = @"phone_ringing.mp3";
    pushInfo.AndroidSound = @"phone_ringing";
    // For OPPO, you must set the `ChannelID` to receive push messages. The `ChannelID` must be identical with that in the console.
    // OPPO must set a ChannelID to receive push messages. This channelID needs to be the same as the console.
    pushInfo.AndroidOPPOChannelID = @"tuikit";
    // FCM channel ID, you need change PrivateConstants.java and set "fcmPushChannelId"
    pushInfo.AndroidFCMChannelID = @"fcm_push_channel";
    // VIVO message type: 0-push message, 1-System message(have a higher delivery rate)
    pushInfo.AndroidVIVOClassification = 1;
    // HuaWei message type: https://developer.huawei.com/consumer/cn/doc/development/HMSCore-Guides/message-classification-0000001149358835
    pushInfo.AndroidHuaWeiCategory = @"IM";
    return pushInfo;
    }
    
    // Single person call example, similar for group call
    [[TUICallKit createInstance] callWithUserId:@"123456"
    callMediaType:TUICallMediaTypeAudio
    params:[self getCallParams] succ:^{
    
    } fail:^(int code, NSString * _Nullable errMsg) {
    
    }];

    FAQs

    Not receiving push notifications, and the backend reports a bad deviceToken?

    Apple's deviceToken is related to the current compilation environment. If the certificate ID and token used to log in to IMSDK and upload the deviceToken to Tencent Cloud do not match, an error will occur.
    If compiled in the Release environment, the - application:didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken: callback returns a token for the deployment environment. In this case, the businessID should be set to the production environment's Certificate ID.
    If compiled in the Debug environment, the - application:didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken: callback returns a token for the development environment. In this case, the businessID should be set to the development environment's Certificate ID.

    In the iOS development environment, is there an occasional lack of return for the deviceToken or a failure in the APNs request for the token?

    This problem is caused by instability of APNs. You can fix it in the following ways:
    1. Insert a SIM card into the phone and use the 4G network.
    2. Uninstall and reinstall the application, restart the application, or shut down and restart the phone.
    3. Use a package for the production environment.
    4. Use another iPhone.
