How does one get APN token

I apologize for this silly question but what is “APN token” and how do you get one?

Hi pink_tshirt, APN stands for Apple Push Notifications, and using the Cordova PushPlugin ( see https://github.com/phonegap-build/PushPlugin and http://ngcordova.com/docs/plugins/pushNotifications/ ) you can “register” an iOS device for Push Notifications.
When registered the APN servers will return a token that you can use to send push notifications to the device from a server.
Hope this helps!
