A Summary of the WWDC25 Group Lab

I have recently restarted an old code base. The app uses App Groups to communicate with network and endpoint system extensions. For some reason, in Xcode > Target > Signing & Capabilities the app groups are showing up with red text. I feel the red signifies a problem, but I cannot figure out what it is. The app compiles and runs, but I feel there is problem that I am missing. Any idea why App Group names would be displayed in red?

Hi !I set 'ON' in app group setting, and do setting on ADC..And I want to get App Group ID by coding (in the program)Is there any way to get App Group ID by coding ? (do not have to write.. only reading is neccessary)Thanks in advance 🙂

Hello,I'm trying to automate the creation of app groups for a given bundle id. I've checked the documentation but there are no information regarding what to do to create a new app group identifier and how to connect it to a bundle identifier.I can only enable the APP_GROUPS capability (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreconnectapi/enable_a_capability) but then there doesn't seem to be a way to assign an app group to a bundle id.The modify capability endpoint (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreconnectapi/modify_a_capability_configuration) seem promising but there's no documentation regarding the format of the request, and after trying to list the information for a bundle identifier (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreconnectapi/list_all_capabilities_for_a_bundle_id) with a manually set up bundle identifier with an app group in the developer portal, the API doesn't even return the app groups for a bundle identifier with t

We have a cross platform App available on Mac, iOS & soon tvOS. We are adding a new App Group to be used by this app. We also have a as yet unpublished future Mac Catalyst app that will need access to the App Group. The Apple docs suggest prefixing app groups on Mac with the team ID but not on other platforms. We would like to avoid prefixing with the team ID because: my understanding is that Mac Catalyst apps don't use the team ID and we would like to support that use case to communicate between our current cross platform app and the future catalyst app. Having a single code base but different group container IDs per platform means a bunch of extra conditional logic in the project we would rather avoid. So with that context our aim is to have an app group that is named consistently across platforms and meets sandboxing requirements for App Store distribution. However when developing using the non-team prefixed app group name on macOS Sequioa I see the

Or did it ever work? I just started trying to get a small setup with a single AU happening. I can play notes and assign midi CC #s to parameters in a plugin, but Command-clicking to open the midi mappings window does only that – I move a midi control as it directs but nothing happens. Notes no longer play and the application is not responding. Clicking cancel in the midi mapping window results in a beachball and I have to force-quit. I've had zero luck with multiple google searches on a variety of terms, so I'm posting here. TIA for any help! I have the latest AU Lab (2.3, created March 6, 2020) on a fresh install of Mojave (10.14.6). BTW - I am assuming, perhaps incorrectly, that midi mapping and host automation are the same thing. Maybe I need to be set straight there. I'm curious though – if Apple means this program to be a test bed for AUs that devs build, how could it not have some way to test host automation? This makes no sense to me.

Hi!(In advance I'm using Xcode 9.2 (9C40b))Xcode is great but one thing that grids my gears, is that whenever I add something(New file, Group, etc) to the file tree all groups gets expanded😢 This gets really annoying beacause of having multiple groups and having to minimize everything over and over again.I can't be the only one with this issue, or am I doing something wrong?If this is just a bug in Xcode, is there a future update coming to fix this?Regards/Guthner

Is there are URL scheme available to WatchOS that will start a group call? The facetime-group prefix prompts the user to start on iOS, but is unsupported on watchOS. Additionally, on WatchOS, the user can manually select contacts to add to an existing facetime audio call. URL scheme example that worked on iOS: facetime-group://?remoteMembers=+12345678901;+23456789012&isVideoEnabled=1 Console warning when attempting on WatchOS: -[SPApplicationDelegate extensionConnection:openSystemURL:]:2418: URL with scheme facetime-group not supported.

Is there a way to transfer an app goup from one developer account to another?We moved an app and to be able to read the old data on users devices we need access to the old app group, right?Would love is someone could help me out with this, thanks.

Question:How does the MDM command to Install major update force macOS Sierra upgrades on DEP-enabled Macs?Is the user asked to authorize the upgrade, or does the upgrade happen with or without user consent?Answer:It downloads the OS installer from the MAS, and triggers the startosinstall command line tool.It behaves like a restart-required software update:If the user is logged-in and there is unsaved data, it will nag you that there is a pending software update and to please restart.If nobody is logged-in (i.e. at loginwindow), the OS upgrade starts without user intervention.Question:Can both the ALF and PF firewalls be configured via MDM?Answer:Yes, with caveats. Refer to Sierra's Profile Manager for the currently supported functionality.Question:Are the ALF and PF firewalls configured via Profiles (.mobileconfig) or directly via MDM commands?Answer:Configuration profile (.mobileconfig file)Question:Can firewall logging also be configured this way? If so, can the new log command line utility see the logs, so

Seems that the groups are gone for the External testers??!! Such a nice feature to organise a little bit things in my list of testers. Now, all of a sudden the groups are gone? Why?
