The confirmation message shows for a short while.

Check the test device to see the message.

Note

If you need to test SDK changes after the production app is already connected to eSputnik, avoid testing with real production users. Use test devices or developer accounts. For a safer setup, consider creating a separate mobile app in eSputnik, using a separate eSputnik account or workspace for development, or testing with a TestFlight build when a separate setup is not available.

If you encounter a BadDeviceToken error while testing push notifications on iOS, check that the APNs environment used by your app build matches the APNs settings in eSputnik. If needed, contact support to verify the APNs environment configured for your app.
