I'm looking to send a notification from backend to specific device. However I was looking at the docs and got confused!!

I have 2 different apps, so I have already added the providers.

Summary

Developers are confused about using topics and targets for push notifications in Firebase. They want to send notifications to specific users only, not topics. There is no need to define a topic for this purpose. To send notifications to specific users, developers should utilize the targets parameter instead of topics. They have already added the necessary providers for their two different apps.

Topics are similar to the topics you subscribe to on Firebase.
Targets are the users/subscribers which you must add on appwrite on a session creation if they are not already added.
