“NSPersistentCloudKitContainer”

Hi. I'm hoping someone might be able to help us with an issue that's been affecting our standalone watchOS app for some time now. We've encountered consistent crashes on Apple Watch devices when the app enters the background while the device is offline (i.e., no Bluetooth and no Wi-Fi connection). Through extensive testing, we've isolated the problem to the use of NSPersistentCloudKitContainer. When we switch to NSPersistentContainer, the crashes no longer occur. Interestingly, this issue only affects our watchOS app. The same CloudKit-based persistence setup works reliably on our iOS and macOS apps, even when offline. This leads us to believe the issue may be specific to how NSPersistentCloudKitContainer behaves on watchOS when the device is disconnected from the network. We're targeting watchOS 10 and above. We're unsure if this is a misconfiguration on our end or a potential system-level issue, and we would greatly appreciate any insight or guidance.

I have an app that uses NSPersistentCloudKitContainer stored in a shared location via App Groups so my widget can fetch data to display. It works. But if you reset your iPhone and restore it from a backup, an error occurs: The file Name.sqlite couldn't be opened. I suspect this happens because the widget is created before the app's data is restored. Restarting the iPhone is the only way to fix it though, opening the app and reloading timelines does not. Anything I can do to fix that to not require turning it off and on again?

I am following Apple's instruction to sync SwiftData with CloudKit. While initiating the ModelContainer, right after removing the store from Core Data, the error occurs: FAULT: NSInternalInconsistencyException: This NSPersistentStoreCoordinator has no persistent stores (unknown). It cannot perform a save operation.; (user info absent) I've tried removing default.store and its related files/folders before creating the ModelContainer with FileManager but it does not resolve the issue. Isn't it supposed to create a new store when the ModelContainer is initialized? I don't understand why this error occurs. Error disappears when I comment out the #if DEBUG block. Code: import CoreData import SwiftData import SwiftUI struct InitView: View { @Binding var modelContainer: ModelContainer? @Binding var isReady: Bool @State private var loadingDots = @State private var timer: Timer? var body: some View { VStack(spacing: 16) { Text(Loading(loadingDots)) .font(.title2) .foregroundColor(.gray) } .padding() .onAppear { start

I have tried to set up iCloud sync. Despite fully isolating and resetting my development environment, the app fails with: NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=134060 (PersistentStoreIncompatibleVersionHashError) What I’ve done: Created a brand new CloudKit container Created a new bundle ID and app target Renamed the Core Data model file itself Set a new model version Used a new .sqlite store path Created a new .entitlements file with the correct container ID Verified that the CloudKit dashboard shows no records Deleted and reinstalled the app on a real device Also tested with “Automatically manage signing” and without Despite this, the error persists. I am very inexperienced and am not sure what my next step is to even attempt to fix this. Any guidance is apprecitated.

I have the following lines of code to access data through CoreData. import Foundation import CoreData import CloudKit class CoreDataManager { static let instance = CoreDataManager() let container: NSPersistentCloudKitContainer let context: NSManagedObjectContext init() { container = NSPersistentCloudKitContainer(name: ABC) container.loadPersistentStores(completionHandler: { (storeDescription, error) in if let error = error as NSError? { print(error.userInfo) } }) context = container.viewContext context.automaticallyMergesChangesFromParent = true context.mergePolicy = NSMergePolicy(merge: .mergeByPropertyObjectTrumpMergePolicyType) } func save() { do { try container.viewContext.save() print(Saved successfully) } catch { print(Error in saving data: (error.localizedDescription)) } } } I have confirmed that I can share data between iPhone and iPad. Now, I need to use AppGroup as well. I have changed my code as follows. import Foundation import CoreData import CloudKit class CoreDataManager { sta

I have a SwiftUI app. It fetches records through CoreData. And I want to show some records on a widget. I understand that I need to use AppGroup to share data between an app and its associated widget. import Foundation import CoreData import CloudKit class DataManager { static let instance = DataManager() let container: NSPersistentContainer let context: NSManagedObjectContext init() { container = NSPersistentCloudKitContainer(name: DataMama) container.persistentStoreDescriptions = [NSPersistentStoreDescription(url: FileManager.default.containerURL(forSecurityApplicationGroupIdentifier: group identifier)!.appendingPathComponent(Trash.sqlite))] container.loadPersistentStores(completionHandler: { (description, error) in if let error = error as NSError? { print(Unresolved error (error), (error.userInfo)) } }) context = container.viewContext context.automaticallyMergesChangesFromParent = true context.mergePolicy = NSMergePolicy(merge: .mergeByPropertyObjectTrumpMergePolicyType) } func save() { do { try c

Starting 20th March 2025, I see an increase in bandwidth and latency for one of my CloudKit projects. I'm using NSPersistentCloudKitContainer to synchronise my data. I haven't changed any CloudKit scheme during that time but shipped an update. Since then, I reverted some changes from that update, which could have led to changes in the sync behaviour. Is anyone else seeing any issues? I would love to file a DTS and use one of my credits for that, but unfortunately, I can't because I cannot reproduce it with a demo project because I cannot travel back in time and check if it also has an increase in metrics during that time. Maybe an Apple engineer can green-light me filing a DTS request, please.
