What is the “keyID” when using APNs push service

Question

Usually there are 3 info I need to provide, to use Apple APNs: key, keyId, teamId, like here.

I understand key (pem file location) and teamId, but where do I find keyId? Is this somewhere in https://developer.apple.com ? Is this the bundle ID?

Answer 1

key: 'apns.p8',   // Path to the key p8 file
keyId: 'ABCDE12345', // The Key ID of the p8 file (available at https://developer.apple.com/account/ios/authkey/)
teamId: 'ABCDE12345', // The Team ID of your Apple Developer Account (available at https://developer.apple.com/account/#/membership/)

Answer 2

If one don't have Key ID at https://developer.apple.com/account/ios/authkey, he or she can follow this steps to create it:

1) Go to Developer Account aka Member Center > Certificates, IDs & Profiles > Keys / All > press the "+"

2) Enter Name and check APNs. The key is the same among your apps, so don't add app name to the key name. Click Confirm.

3) Download the key and be careful with it. Here you can see the Key ID (kid) value.
