# How to Avoid Common Push Notification Issues on iOS Devices Using iOS Swift version 9.x.x?

> Fix push impression tracking and image rendering on iOS with Swift SDK 9.x.x. Confirm appgroupid is correctly set in your MoEngage SDK config.

## Problem

Common issues with Push notifications, including Push Campaign impressions not being tracked and images not rendering even though Push notifications are successfully delivered to device with Swift version 9.x.x.

<Info>
  For Push Campaign impressions to be tracked, verify that the **Show iOS impressions** toggle on the MoEngage dashboard is turned on.

## Solution

Perform the following steps:

1. **Check for app\_group\_id in your project’s main target for each configuration**:
   You can add the same app\_group\_id or different ones across configurations.
   <Info>
     Issues may arise if your configurations use different Bundle Identifiers but share the same app\_group\_id. Specifically, the Notification Service Extension may fail if two apps with different Bundle Identifiers but the same app\_group\_id are installed on the same device.
     To avoid this, you can use the same app\_group\_id across multiple configurations, but be aware that you won't be able to test all apps simultaneously on a single device.

2. **Check for app\_group\_id during SDK initialization**:
   * If the SDK is initialized using info.plist, the APP\_GROUP\_ID key must be there inside the MoEngage key in your info.plist file.
   * If the SDK is initialized using sdkConfig, the APP\_GROUP\_ID must be in the sdkConfig variable inside the AppDelegate file.\
     **app\_group\_id in info.plist:**
     <img alt="app id.png" src="https://mintcdn.com/moengage-doc-2315-external-css-font-urls/WxS3YZfik7eJr1oJ/images/moengage_c8e4c5.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=WxS3YZfik7eJr1oJ&q=85&s=ffc3006cad7b01ab7746416739eb2513" width="1920" height="888" data-path="images/moengage_c8e4c5.png" />
   **app\_group\_id in sdkConfig variable:**
   ```swift Swift wrap theme={null}
   var sdkConfig = MoEngageSDKConfig.init(appId: "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX", dataCenter: .data_center_0X)
   sdkConfig.appGroupID = "group.com.XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
   ```
   ```objective-c Objective-C wrap theme={null}
   MoEngageSDKConfig* sdkConfig = [[MoEngageSDKConfig alloc] initWithAppId:@"XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" dataCenter: MoEngageDataCenterData_center_0X];
   sdkConfig.appGroupID = @"group.com.XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";
   ```
3. **Check for a Notification Service Extension Target**:
   * **Enable Push Notifications**: In the extension target's Signing & Capabilities section, make sure to enable Push Notifications and add the AppGroupId.
     <img alt="enable.png" src="https://mintcdn.com/moengage-doc-2315-external-css-font-urls/ePS8NRy2_Uqi-A7b/images/moengage_00fc2a.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=ePS8NRy2_Uqi-A7b&q=85&s=39138d64831b136429e555802214fd03" width="1920" height="706" data-path="images/moengage_00fc2a.png" />
   * **Align the Minimum Deployment iOS Version**: Ensure that the minimum deployment iOS version of the Notification Service Extension matches the iOS version of the main app. <img alt="support.png" src="https://mintcdn.com/moengage-doc-2315-external-css-font-urls/4xqQ_zOSspW4gELq/images/moengage_d97c40.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=4xqQ_zOSspW4gELq&q=85&s=ad7ae0356695bee0fa8328161e1eb35c" width="1920" height="563" data-path="images/moengage_d97c40.png" />
4. Integrate the MORichNotification framework into the Notification Service Extension target.
   ```swift Swift theme={null}
   target 'MoEngageDemo' do
     use_frameworks!
     pod 'MoEngage-iOS-SDK'
   end
   target 'MoEngageNotificationService' do
     use_frameworks! #use use_frameworks only if included in main target as in above scenario
     pod 'MoEngageRichNotification'
   end
   ```
5. NotificationService.swift file looks like this:
   ```swift Swift theme={null}
   import UserNotifications
   import MoEngageRichNotification
    
   class NotificationService: UNNotificationServiceExtension {
    
       var contentHandler: ((UNNotificationContent) - Void)?
       var bestAttemptContent: UNMutableNotificationContent?
    
       override func didReceive(_ request: UNNotificationRequest, withContentHandler contentHandler: @escaping (UNNotificationContent) - Void) {	
         MoEngageSDKRichNotification.setAppGroupID("group.com.XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX")
         self.contentHandler = contentHandler
         bestAttemptContent = (request.content.mutableCopy() as? UNMutableNotificationContent)
         MoEngageSDKRichNotification.handle(richNotificationRequest: request, withContentHandler: contentHandler)
       }
       
       override func serviceExtensionTimeWillExpire() {
           // Called just before the extension will be terminated by the system.
           // Use this as an opportunity to deliver your "best attempt" at modified content, otherwise the original push payload will be used.
           if let contentHandler = contentHandler, let bestAttemptContent =  bestAttemptContent {
               contentHandler(bestAttemptContent)
           }
       }
   }
   ```
6. **Check Build Phases for the Main App Target**: In the Build Phases section of the main app target, locate the Embed App Extensions / Embed Foundation Extensions section. Ensure that the **Copy only when installing** option is unchecked.
   <img alt="copy.png" src="https://mintcdn.com/moengage-doc-2315-external-css-font-urls/AeBdxtJ_M_DsQv_B/images/moengage_76d571.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=AeBdxtJ_M_DsQv_B&q=85&s=69b3f95e42eca705582a83a94b71818b" width="1920" height="652" data-path="images/moengage_76d571.png" />
7. **Ensure Consistent appGroupId Across Configurations**: Verify that the appGroupId is consistent across all schemes and configurations (e.g. Debug/Release/QA/UAT) in the project.
8. **Align Build Configuration**: When running or archiving the project, ensure that the Build Configuration for the Main Target and Notification Service Extension Target points to the same scheme/configuration.
