Thanks

You can try to install Firebase SDK and send the push using it. But why don’t you want to use Parse APNS?

Hi, no i want to delegate all push notification to firebase, I guessed was possible to send IoS push notifcation over firebase directly without using APNs,and let firebase to handle all push notifications

In this case I believe you need to follow Firebase docs, install Firebase SDK, etc…

I’m using directly firebase-admin sdk and bypass parse push system. Here is how I use it in cloud code.

const admin = require("firebase-admin");

var serviceAccount = require("./serviceAccountKey.json");

admin.initializeApp({
  credential: admin.credential.cert(serviceAccount),
  databaseURL: "https://YourFirebaseURL"
});

var message = {
    data: {
      type: 'followrequest',
      username: ""+user.get("username"),
      name: ""+user.get("namesurname"),
      image: ""+ppurl,
      to:otherUser.id+""
    },
    token: ""+otherUser.get("token")
    };
admin.messaging().send(message);

ServiceAccountKey.json file is required. You can download it from your firebase console.
Go to firebase console. go project settings - service accounts. select node js. In the bottom there is a button to generate new key. Click it and download json file. move that json file into your parse/cloud folder.

You can also find your database url in that page
