I'm getting this error from Firebase Messaging API:

[Firebase/Messaging][I-FCM002010] Cannot subscribe to topic: /topics/testTopic with token: (null)

But before:

Messaging.messaging().subscribe(toTopic: "/topics/testTopic")

I'm printing out the token like this:

print("TOKEN: \(InstanceID.instanceID().token() ?? "NO TOKEN")")

The result is: 

TOKEN:cXPhGQ_inE4:APA91bEKZF5depHmIm9gDliCFRCRcnJf5LYy5FMg6nhpWvKU3o3HEtr1WTBHUiCZXT4XzhVg2oqXzhtfrgf83brtLdqXii546644ciMPO80tri4JPueQBClKbaomEfoh54ku8E2lw

So the token isn't null.

Am I doing something wrong? Anyone some help?

The problem was that I wanted to subscribe in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions but in that point not all services were set up. The solution was to subscribe in the delegate didRegisterUserNotificationSettings.
