User Profile

I have an intent whose flow looks like this when performing the action: 1. Get details from user 2. Add items to local db 3. Get return value from db -- if user is signed in 4. Send new data to API -- In these steps I can finish the intent at step 3, but in some cases I'll need to send the new data to an API so it can be propagated to other user's devices. If I simply wait until the API returns, some users may notice a delay after being signed in, eg: after signing in, the task now takes a few seconds when it used to take only a split second. Is there a way I can return the intent while continuing the background process? Or is it okay to simply call the completion handler, then continue my script in the func handle(intent:

In App Store Connect I can't access any of my apps' in app purchase information. This includes apps that are live on the app store and is very worrisome. When I click on 'Manage' under 'In-App Purchases' it brings me to a page that says "There was a problem retrieving the data for this page. Please try again." Then, in my apps, I'm just not finding any products. All requests for in-app purchases fail. Is there something I'm missing? I've looked at my agreements and such, and there's no alerts on my account. I shouldn't have to renew my developer account for 9 months.

I’m developing an app for a few health care providers in my local area. Each provider is an individual person with an iPad. I need to distribute it to each provider individually. I’d rather not put my app on the public App Store, as I’m not ready to support more than a few providers at once. Beta testing won’t work very well for me either, since there will be over 100 installs needed, which is the test flight limit. I’ve looked into other services like AppCenter or firebase for distribution through them, but I’d really like to do it through the native App Store. Additionally, each provider can’t create a business account that I could distribute to. So what I’m asking is is there a way for me to publish an app to the App Store, then have it be hidden to the public unless I send a person a link to the app. That way I can use the App Store while still keeping control over who can have my app.

I wrote out all the questions and submitted my playground, then deleted my copy of the questions thinking i was done. When I pressed submit it just reloaded the page. Has anyone else gotten some sort of confirmation that they enrolled or should I re-write everything.
