I'm missing a character? Let me look real quick.....and THANK YOU!!! Yes, You were exactly right — I was missing one character in the Team ID. One blanking character and days of stress and worry from so much work. After correcting APNS_TEAM_ID on the server and recreating the container, the same JOSE/direct HTTP/2 APNs smoke test now returns: HTTP status: 200 body: empty APNs accepted the notification. Thank you again!! — that resolved the InvalidProviderToken issue.

Hello again! I'm still at a stand still and if I can give you any info to help you, help me figure this out, I am so grateful too! Thank you for your help and time!!
