9.26.4 Priority Vendor Requirements

NetIQ sends the push notification to the smartphone application by default. You can add a priority vendor that sends the push notification to the customized iOS application during the authentication. Before adding a priority vendor, you must generate the .p8 key file, obtain Key ID, Bundle ID, and Apple Team ID. The .p8 key file enables the configured priority vendor to send the push notification to any iOS application.

To generate the .p8 key file, perform the following steps:

  1. Sign in to your Apple Developer account.

  2. Navigate to Certificates, IDs & Profiles > Keys.

  3. Click + icon to add a key.

  4. Specify name of the key in Key Name.

  5. Select Apple Push Notification service (APNs).

  6. Click Continue then click Register.

  7. Click Download to download the key file.

    The name of key file includes the Key ID.

    For example, the file name is AuthKeyABCD1234.p8, the ABCD1234 represents the Key ID.

    NOTE:Ensure to store and secure the Key file for further use because you cannot download the key file again.

  8. Click Membership and gather the TeamID.

  9. Click Certificates, IDs & Profiles > Identifiers.

  10. Select the name of the application to view the Bundle ID.

    NOTE:The Bundle ID is created by the customer who develops the application. Apple allows developers to use reverse domain name notation deriving the bundle identifier for the application.

    For example, the Bundle ID for the domain abc.com can be com.abc.<appname>.

    To proceed, you must share the above details with the Micro Focus Support team to configure the proxy server.
