# Application MFA Push Credentials

Push credentials are required for the purpose of sending push notifications to a native application. Push credentials must be defined for the application.

The push credentials endpoint implements functions to create, read, update and delete the push credentials associated with native application resources.

There are three types of push credentials:

* `APNS` (Apple)

* `FCM_HTTP_V1` (Google)

* `HMS` (Huawei)

The `FCM` type, used previously for Google Play-based applications, is no longer supported. Use `FCM_HTTP_V1` instead.
