Can Azure push the same notification to multiple apps (different bundle Id's) from one notification hub

Question

We have multiple versions of the same app under different bundle Id's, ie, com.<company>.prod, com.<company>.pilot, com.<company>.live. We would like to register with Azure push notification Hub once and have the message sent to multiple apps (different bundle Id's). Is this possible using Azure notification hubs and Apples token for registration?

I see if Authentication mode of token is selected you enter the key, team Id, Token and Bundle Id. Is it possible to enter multiple bundle Id's and will that work.

OK, I should just try it to see, which I will. Just asking to see if someone has experience with this already.

@Tom Nelson , Thanks for posting a great question.

Unfortunately, this is not possible to do with Notification Hubs. You would need to set up multiple hubs for each bundle ID and each app would then register with the specific hub they belong to. Also, this is even recommended just between sandbox/production usage for an app developer – Example: have a myhub-sandbox and myhub-production. The sandbox hub would hold the sandbox credential and the production hub the production credentials. Then the client app itself should know which variant it is and register with the correct hub.
Then push the identical notification to each of the hubs you want to target.

Hope this helps! Apologies for any inconvenience with this! much appreciate your value feedback. Kindly be assured that I have also relayed the feedback to our product team.
