Friend Connection ( User A / User B) Problem
I implemented the cloudkit function, where users can connect with each other. The problem is, that if User A is doing a friend request and User B is accepting the request. The friend entry is correct visible for User B but not for User A. I can see in cloud kit that after the accepted request, the friend connection is set up correctly, also with the correct userID, but it not showing up for User A (the one that send the request)

CloudKit CKModifyRecordsOperation resulting in undocumented error "Internal Error" (1/3001); "MMCSEngineCreate failed"
I'm running into an undocumented error coming back from CloudKit operations. Specifically, I'm attempting to save new records via CKModifyRecordsOperation. I'm receiving this error for each of the records in the perRecordSaveBlock callback: <CKError 0x3018ac3c0: "Internal Error" (1/3001); "MMCSEngineCreate failed"> Is anyone else facing this error? It has been happening for several days and I'm finally getting around to reproduction with the Console app and logs. I have 16 records on my device locally that each one gets this error back.

Timezone for Device Notification statistics?
What timezone is used in the CloudKit Push Notification reporting? Meaning, when I see 1,000 Sent Push Notifications on 2/18, is that 2025-02-18 00:00 through 2025-02-18 23:59 PST? EST? UTC? The metrics shown in [the CloudKit Push Notification reporting] are not lining up with stats from my marketing system, and I'm trying to diagnose. Also, is there a way to see DELIVERIES or just SENT? I'm looking to learn more about why a Notification would be Sent but not received by the user. Thank you!

Recovering Customer's Data After iCloud Migration
I have encountered an issue with a customer’s data access after they migrated to a different iCloud account, and I’m looking for guidance. The Situation: The customer was logged into their account on my app, which was associated with a specific iCloud account (iCloud A). They had all their app data available while using iCloud A. The customer then switched to a new iCloud account (iCloud B) on the same device, while still using the same app account. After switching iCloud accounts, their data is no longer visible in the app or my CloudKit dashboard. My Investigation: I accessed the customer’s CloudKit data via the CloudKit Console, acting as their iCloud account. I couldn’t find the private database zone or any of their records when accessing iCloud A through the console. I don’t believe the data was deleted since actions performed under iCloud B shouldn’t affect data stored in iCloud A. My Hypothesis: I suspect that the customer’s old iCloud account (iCloud A) may have downgraded or stopped paying for iCloud storage. If the iCloud subscription is inactive or expired, could that prevent me from accessing their CloudKit data? Would renewing the iCloud subscription for iCloud A restore access to the missing data? Questions: Does an unpaid or expired iCloud account restrict access to CloudKit records, even if they weren’t deleted? Would paying for iCloud storage again restore the data previously stored in CloudKit? Is there any way to recover the customer’s CloudKit data if they are unable to access their old iCloud account? If anyone has a simpler approach to recovering the customer’s iCloud-stored app data or has experience dealing with iCloud migrations like this, I’d appreciate your insights. Thank you in advance for any advice!

Database not deploying to CloudKit
I am trying to port my application over to CloudKit. My app worked fine before, but then I made scheme of changes and am trying to deploy to a new container. For some reason, the database is not being created after I create the container through Xcode. I think I have configured the app correctly and a container was created, but no records were deployed. My app current stores data locally on individual devices just fine but they don't sync with each other. That's why I would like to use CloudKit. See screenshot from Xcode of where I have configured the container. I also have background notifications enabled. Also see screenshot from console where the container has been created, but no records have been. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

SwiftData and CloudKit Development vs. Production Database
Hi, I'm working on a macOS app that utilizes SwiftData to save some user generated content to their private databases. It is not clear to me at which point the app I made starts using the production database. I assumed that if I produce a Release build that it will be using the prod db, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I made the mistake of distributing my app to users before "going to prod" with CloudKit. So after I realized what I had done, I inspected my CloudKit dashboard and records and I found the following: For my personal developer account the data is saved in the Developer database correctly and I can inspect it. When I use the "Act as iCloud account" feature and use one of my other accounts to inspect the data, I notice that for the other user, the data is neither in the Development environment nor the Production environment. Which leads me to believe it is only stored locally on that user's machine, since the app does in fact work, it's just not syncing with other devices of the same user. So, my question is: how do I "deploy to production"? I know that there is a Deploy Schema Changes button in the CloudKit dashboard. At which point should I press that? If I press it now, before distributing a new version of my app, will that somehow "signal" the already running apps on user's machines to start using the Production database? Is there a setting in Xcode that I need to check for my Release build, so that the app does in fact start using the production db? Is there a way to detect in the code whether the app is using the Production database or not? It would be useful so I can write appropriate migration logic, since I don't want to loose existing data users already have saved locally.

Persistent CloudKit Internal Error
I have integrated CloudKit into a CoreData application and am ready to deploy the schema to production but keep getting an "internal error" when trying to deploy to production or reset my CloudKit environment. I have attached images of what I am seeing including one of the console error. Is there any way to resolve this?

Significant increase in 'Other' CloudKit errors
Looking at my CloudKit Telemetry console I noticed a significant increase in 'Other' errors recently. These errors are impacting user experience and I really don't know how to better understand the issues that may be occurring due to the "other" category. If I query the logs for "other" errors, only 2 results show up for the week. There are 2500+ errors in the telemetry graph (see attached). Is anyone else experiencing this or does anyone have a suggestion on how I can better understand this issue? Thank you!

CloudKit production index not being applied to existing records
I created a new index on two record types on Oct 12th. I still cannot query the records using the new queryable index on records that were created before that date. There is no indication in the schema history that the reindexing has started, completed, failed, or still in progress. What is the expectation for new indices being applied to existing records? Well over a week seems unacceptable for a database that has maybe 5000 records across a few record types. When I query my data using an old index and an old record field, I get hundreds of matching results so I know the data is there. FB15554144 - CloudKit / CloudKit Console: PRODUCTION ISSUE - Query against index created two weeks ago not returning all data as expected
