  1. Open your app in Mendix Studio Pro.
  2. Log in as the Administrator user you previously designated.
  3. Navigate to the Administration page.

The first time you open this page it will present you with a wizard to set up the Firebase configuration. If you have not set up Firebase yet, see Set Up the Google Firebase Cloud Messaging Server.
