How to update the apple passes create without webServiceURL

Question

Earlier, I had created some Apple pass without 'webServiceURL' using PHP. Those pass were added in the Apple wallet successfully, Now. I need to update the existing those passes. Are there options to update those existing passes.

Thanks in advance

There are no options to update a pass if you do not set the webServiceURL in the original pass. Also, if you unset the webServiceURL in the updated pass, it will cease to be available for update.

Apple uses "silent push" to prompt the device to send an HTTP request when a pass is updated. If you do not have the device id to send with your APNS push request, which you get from setting webServiceURL in the pass.json in the original pass, then you cannot prompt an update.
