Hello, I'm try to Capabilities on the Identifier but I got this error. Any help please?

I’m running into an App Store Connect issue and I’m trying to figure out whether this is a build configuration problem on my side or a backend issue in App Store Connect. When I try to save my app version after selecting a build, App Store Connect fails and DevTools shows this request failing: PATCH /iris/v1/appStoreVersions/ with a 409 Conflict. The response body is: Json { "errors": [ { "id": "af484f56-8f7d-4338-a04a-2aeda858ace1", "status": "409", "code": "ENTITY_ERROR.RELATIONSHIP.INVALID", "title": "The provided entity includes a relationship with an invalid value", "detail": "The specified pre-release build could not be added.", "source": { "pointer": "/data/relationships/build" } } ] } A few details: The issue seems to happen with all uploaded builds, not just one The builds finish uploading and appear in App Store Connect I’ve already checked and corrected my version/build number setup I created a fresh Release archive I uploaded a new build I removed the previously attached build and tried attaching the new one App Store Connect still refuses to save the version once a build is selected I’ve already verified that the app version and build number in the project appear to be set correctly. At this point I’m trying to understand: Any suggestions on specific things to check would be appreciated. Thanks.

I’m working with two Apple Developer Organization accounts and ran into an issue with Bundle ID reuse. In Account A: I created an App ID: com.example.app Created an app in App Store Connect using this Bundle ID Uploaded builds and used it only for TestFlight (never submitted for App Store review) Now I want to move development to Account B. However: When I try to create the same Bundle ID (com.example.app) in Account B, I get: “An App ID with Identifier 'com.example.app' is not available.” What I’ve considered: The app has never been submitted or approved It has only been used for TestFlight testing I have not yet attempted App Transfer (since it requires an approved app) Questions: Is a Bundle ID permanently locked to the original account even if the app was never submitted for review? If I delete the App ID and app from Account A, will the Bundle ID ever become reusable? Is submitting the app once and then using App Transfer the only way to move this Bundle ID to another account?

We are planning to distribute our app outside of TestFlight because our testing period exceeds the 90-day limit. Since we have an Apple Developer account, we are considering using Unlisted App Distribution for long-term testing. I have a few questions regarding this approach: After completing testing via Unlisted Distribution, is it possible to switch the same app to a public App Store release, or would we need to create and submit a separate app for public distribution? If a separate app is required, are there any restrictions from Apple on releasing essentially the same app under a different bundle identifier through another distribution channel? (Additionally, once testing is finalised, we plan to discontinue the Unlisted App version.) Are there any potential complications or limitations we should anticipate (e.g., app review concerns, versioning, or policy compliance) related to this matter? Any guidance or best practices in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

My team created an initial app bundle ID called Sendi from the front end of the app store connect account, and created a test app which hasn't been published to App store. Then we also created a second app programmatically using expo go which generated a new app bundle ID. What we need is to link the second configuration generated programmatically to the first Apple Bundle ID as that is the original name of the product, so we can maintain the same name for our App when we eventually go live. Any ideas on how we can achieve that?

This is the error that I get when I build for the iOS App Store or run on my connected iPad (with App Store release). This is my first iOS app that i have developed. When I build for development I get no errors and runs fine on my iPad (also simulator ipads). I have several Mac apps on the app store. The embedded.mobileprovision file is in my app bundle. com.nawctsd.riotpad is the Bundle Identifier in the app and in the App ID Configuration.

Hello everyone, I'm currently developing an iOS application and have a question regarding project architecture changes and App Store Connect submissions. My app is already uploaded to App Store Connect and is being used for internal testing via TestFlight. During development, I've realized my initial project architecture is flawed and unsustainable. The Problem and Proposed Solution I've decided the best approach is to completely redevelop the app from scratch using a new, clean Xcode project that implements a better architecture (e.g., MVVM, Clean Architecture). The Core Question If I create a brand new Xcode project for the redeveloped app, can I: Use the same Bundle Identifier (com.mycompany.myapp) in the new project? Successfully archive and upload the build from this new Xcode project to the existing app on App Store Connect? In essence, does App Store Connect require the new build to originate from the same Xcode project structure as the previous builds, or does it only validate the Bundle Identifier and Version/Build Number? Any advice or confirmation from developers who have gone through a similar complete project overhaul would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Tech stack: React Native + Expo. We are using two solo developer accounts (not a business or team account). Context: Friend and I set out to make an app together. Friend created app and set it up on Apple. We worked on it together. He controlled devops (builds and submission). Friend no longer can commit to development. Wants to transfer to me. I create apple developer account. After app transfer, my phone (deviceid) underwent a 14 day soft ban preventing builds. That has since been lifted. There seems to be something in place preventing me from making dev builds on the original dev bundleid. It says it's still owned by him despite the app transfer. Bottom line: what needs to happen so 1 can make dev builds? nice to have: is there a way for us to both make dev builds under the same bundleid?

I have an independent watchOS app, and I am a partner of the related iOS app. This means the IOS app can give me its bundle ID. So, here is the question: If I want my watchOS app be listed under the iOS app store page. Do I only need my bundle ID to be associated with the iOS project ? Is it necessary for the watchOS project and the iOS project to be in the same project?

I suddenly started to receive the following email with the error in it stating that my uploaded app is not available to be used in TestFlight: ITMS-90886: 'Cannot be used with TestFlight because the signature for the bundle at “MyApp.app/Contents/PlugIns/MyAppWidgetExtension.appex” is missing an application identifier but has an application identifier in the provisioning profile for the bundle. Bundles with application identifiers in the provisioning profile are expected to have the same identifier signed into the bundle in order to be eligible for TestFlight.' It was all working fine and now I am not sure even where to start looking. Signing, provisioning and everything else is managed automatically.

The new Apple Developer account is encountering the following error: “The bundle uses a bundle name or display name that is already taken. (90129)” We used Expo to build the apps and tested several bundle identifiers and app names for the new group, following the same procedure that has worked for our other groups. However, this specific group continues to trigger the same error — “The bundle uses a bundle name or display name that is already taken. (90129)” — every time we submit a successful build through Transporter. Even after experimenting with different bundle identifiers and creating a completely new Expo project, the issue remains unresolved.

I have 2 app store connect apps: "" ".beta" This is necessary for our usecase as we are building an iOS blockchain wallet, for a chain that updates itself every ~3 months adding new features/changing. We need the communities input, and can't have them uninstalling/re-installing the production app constantly, having to re-import private keys, etc. So we use 1 app store connect app for production releases, and another for public facing long running beta, where we experiment with new features before pulling them into production. Allowing users to have both installed at the same time Last week my CI (without any changes to scripts, project, profiles, etc), started failing for the production build with the error: [altool.105176BE0] Validation failed (409) This bundle is invalid. The bundle identifier cannot be changed from the current value, '<bundle-id>.beta'. If you want to change your bundle identifier, you will need to create a new application in App Store Connect. (ID: ae60bab4-0c01-4b2e-9ea9-91a73adccc14) Nowhere in any of the .app, .ipa, info.plist, provisioning profiles, etc, is it referencing ".beta", everything is referencing "" I tried building it manually locally, same error. I took the local output that failed with xcrun altool, and instead dropped it into Transporter, and it uploaded successfully to the production app Is it possible that xcrun altool is using an app store connect API that changed sometime in the last few weeks? Maybe the search/sort ordering logic has changed?

I work at a school in NYC and have a software idea that could better support the new NYC phone ban law than current market options (i.e. Yondr pouches). Right now at my school, students and staff scan a QR code upon entering the building to indicate that they are in the building. They scan again on the way out to indicate they've left the building. This is super helpful for attendance, particularly in emergency situations (fire drills, etc). Imagine if when students scanned their QR code, it also activated an app similar to Opal or ScreenZen, but with an admin preset whitelisted apps. The idea is that this app would default deny access to all apps on students' phones except the admin preset whitelisted ones such as Phone, Calculator, etc. Depending on the age/needs of the student, other apps like Spotify, or medical apps could also be whitelisted. My question is -- is this idea possible to create? We would need admin preset controls to create the preset whitelist. We can't have students picking their own restrictions, as we know most would opt to not restrict at all. We would need an admin dashboard so teachers/admin can see which students have activated the app in the building, and which may be trying to sneakily avoid it. We would ideally need to be able to whitelist both system apps like Phone and Calculator, as well as non-system apps such as Spotify (and medical apps -- we have some students who manage/monitor their Diabetes with an app). I don't have a background in software. I'm a math and health teacher. I've experimented with trying to have friends who majored in CS to create this app for me, but they've all either struggled/lost interest. So I'm also looking for a business partner in this venture. If anyone has any guidance here, it would be so helpful! My boss (Head of School) is super interested in this idea and significantly prefers it to every other alternative that he has encountered. The problem is this idea does not exist yet! Note: I know this is a super similar idea to the app and product "Brick". Notably, though, Brick does not have the ability for admin preset controls, or the admin dashboard. We reached out to the company to see if they're create this for us and they said it's a back burner idea that they're aware of, but it's not a priority for them right now. Thank you for any guidance!

Hello everyone, We recently transferred our iOS app from one Apple Developer account to another, and after the transfer, we encountered a serious issue where all previously stored Keychain data and the local database became inaccessible. As a result, all users are automatically logged out and lose access to their locally stored data (such as chat history) once they update to the new version signed with the new Team ID. We understand that Keychain items are tied to the App ID prefix (Team ID), which changes during an app transfer. However, we’re looking for possible workarounds or best practices to avoid user data loss. Questions: Is there any reliable method to maintain or migrate access to old Keychain data after an app transfer? Would reverting the app back to the original developer account and releasing an update from there (to persist or migrate data) before transferring it again be a viable solution? Has anyone faced a similar issue and found a practical way to handle data persistence during an app transfer? Any guidance, technical suggestions, or shared experiences would be highly appreciated. This issue is causing major impact for our users, so we’re hoping to find a safe and supported approach. Thank you, Mohammed Hassan

trying to deploy the LotBot app to my physical device, rtd2, which is listed as a device in the App Developer Portal. when I create a provision file it is always for W246SX52AS, as seen in the developer portal, but from Xcode I am showing a app id of "Apple Development: Richard Dukes (86537MF8N2)". Message: I am unable to create a "Apple Development: Richard Dukes (W246SX52AS)" so I may deploy to the device and the App Store. I have signed out and back in to Xcode with my account but when creating the profile it is always the 86537MF8N2. 95E07D345D31D45E4589FA7EA6FDF161E079C100 "Apple Distribution: Richard Dukes (W246SX52AS)" 5AC76CE9331F80AE953C4C76FC21DE5C2416293E "Apple Development: Richard Dukes (86537MF8N2)" How can I get Xcode to use W246SX52AS? I have these help tickets open as well. case ID is 102678952862 case ID is 102678950460 I have been fighting this for a while. Please help me figure out to get this resolved.

Hi everyone We have brought the iOS development in-house from a consulting firm and have developed a new app that will replace the old one. To minimize disruption for users of the old app during this upgrade, we would like to release the new app as an update to the old one, using the Bundle ID from the old app. It is important to note that the old app has already been released through the App Store. The two apps share no code and are almost incompatible on any points. Is it possible to change the Bundle ID and delete UserDefaults from the old app during the transition to the new app? We look forward to your input!

This bundle is invalid. The IPA format requires a top-level directory named Payload, containing only a .app bundle and optional plugins in a Plugins directory. (ID: df59dbe4-17e5-4bc6-9c69-8645672320(4))

We have a client with an application that includes a main application, NSEs (Notification Service Extensions) as an extension, and framework1 embedded within the main application. The NSEs also require framework1 as a dependency. When we embedded framework1 within the NSEs, the App Store Connect validation failed with the following error: Validation failed (409) CFBundleIdentifier Collision. There is more than one bundle with the CFBundleIdentifier value 'com.test.xyz-LoggerUtility' under the iOS application 'test.app'. (ID: -----------) We've observed an issue specifically when uploading to App Store Connect. We're able to debug and distribute the application without any problems using our enterprise distribution.

I'm working on implementing Apple Wallet passes using background push notifications. My server successfully sends the push notification using APNs. The response from the server is HTTP/2 200, and the device receives the push — I can confirm this from device logs. However, the device logs show the following error: "Failed to parse JSON message payload for topic " "Unable to deserialize JSON message payload" My payload is below 2 payload. //string payload = "{"aps":{"content-available":1}}"; string payload = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(new { aps = new Dictionary<string, object> { { "content-available", 1 } } }); string curlArgs = $"-s -o nul -w \"%{{http_code}}\" " + $"--data-binary \"{payload}\" " + $"-H \"apns-topic: {bundleId}\" " + $"-H \"apns-push-type: background\" " + $"-H \"apns-priority: 5\" " + $"-H \"content-type: application/json\" " + $"-H \"authorization: bearer {jwt}\" " + $"--http2 https://api.push.apple.com/3/device/{token}"; I’ve confirmed that: The device has the Wallet pass installed. The apns-topic header is set to my passTypeIdentifier. The apns-push-type is background and apns-priority is 5. Steps to Reproduce: Install Wallet pass on iOS device. Send background push to device using the above payload. Observe the device logs using Console.app or log stream. See error: unable to deserialize JSON message payload. Is there a specific payload format expected for Wallet passes? Or any additional fields required in the push payload to avoid this deserialization error?
