Register a mobile device endpoint as an App Instance user - Amazon Chime SDK

Register a mobile device endpoint as an App Instance user

To receive push notifications, app instance users must first use the RegisterAppInstanceUserEndpoint API to register a mobile device. They must register from a mobile app that has access to the device token for the device's operating system.

To ensure the app instance User has access to the Amazon Pinpoint application listed in the ARN, the user must have permission to call mobiletargeting:GetApp on the Amazon Pinpoint ARN. Otherwise, the Amazon Chime SDK throws a 403 Forbidden error when calling RegisterAppInstanceUserEndpoint.

This example shows the policy needed to register an endpoint.
