func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
      ChatManager.setAppGroupContainerId(id: CONTAINER_ID)
      ChatManager.initializeSDK(licenseKey: LICENSE_KEY) { _, _, _ in }
      return true
}

Call the setAppGroupContainerId method again in didReceive method of the UNNotificationServiceExtension delegate.

In class that extends the UNNotificationServiceExtension after validating whether the received payload is for Chat or not, call the below method to process the request further.

func didReceive(_ request: UNNotificationRequest, withContentHandler contentHandler: @escaping (UNNotificationContent) -> Void) {
      ChatManager.setAppGroupContainerId(id: CONTAINER_ID)
      NotificationMessageSupport.shared.didReceiveNotificationRequest("NOTIFICATION_CONTENT", "COMPLETION_BLOCK")
}
