Instantiating deep View Controller with Tab bar and Navigation

I am using Xcode 11 and Swift 5.

Upon receiving an APNS notification, I need to jump to a view controller deep in my storyboard from AppDelegate. This viewController (chatVC) is behind a tabbar and a navigation controller and several other view controllers. See the image below. I know how to check the notification for tags and how to use launchOptions in AppDelegate to trigger the jump. But I am struggling with how to establish the context for that last view controller so that the user can use the back button all the way back to the tab bar controller.

I have read many SO answers, and tried many approaches but none seem to have the same embedding of a nav controller inside a tab bar controller. Here is my code in AppDelegate (after reading the tag in the notification):

        if tag == "CS" {
            // Set up a Chat View Controller.
            if let chatVC = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: .main).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: Constants.Storyboard.chatVC) as? NewChatViewController,
                let tabBarVC = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: .main).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: Constants.Storyboard.tabBarController) as? UITabBarController,
                let csVC = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: .main).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: Constants.Storyboard.csViewController) as? CustomerServiceViewController,
                let helpVC = UIStoryboard(name:"Main", bundle: .main).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: Constants.Storyboard.helpVC) as? HelpViewController
            {
                // Set the customer service document Id.
                chatVC.cs = cs
                // Make the tabBarVC the Root View Controller
                self.window?.rootViewController = tabBarVC
                self.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
                // Select the Favorites Index.
                tabBarVC.selectedIndex = 0
                // Push the Customer Service VC on top.
                tabBarVC.show(csVC, sender: Any?.self)
                // Push the Help VC on top of Customer Service VC.
                csVC.show(helpVC, sender: Any?.self)
                // Push the the chat detail page on top.
                helpVC.show(chatVC, sender: Any?.self)
            }
        }
    }
    return true

What can I do to jump to the chatVC and set up the navigation context beneath it so the back button can be used?

Here is how you can do it:

guard let tabBarVC = UIApplication.shared.windows.filter( {$0.rootViewController is UITabBarController } ).first?.rootViewController as? UITabBarController else { return }
tabBarVC.selectedIndex = 0 //you can select another tab if needed
guard let chatVC = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: .main).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: Constants.Storyboard.chatVC) as? NewChatViewController else { return }
if let navController = tabBarVC.viewControllers?[0] as? UINavigationController {
   navController.pushViewController(chatVC, animated: true)
}

You can also pass objects from your notification to your chatVC here before pushing it, in case you need to do that.

Hope this works for you!
