Blocker: Registering simulator runtime with CoreSimulator failed.

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 { startAnimation() registerTransformers() let config = ModelConfiguration() let newContainer: ModelContainer do { #if DEBUG // Use an autorelease pool to make sure Swift deallocates the persistent // container before setting up the SwiftData stack. try autoreleasepool { let desc = NSPersistentStoreDescription(url: config.url) let opts = NSPersistentCloudKitContainerOptions(containerIdentifier: "iCloud.my-container-identifier") desc.cloudKitContainerOptions = opts // Load the store synchronously so it completes before initializing the // CloudKit schema. desc.shouldAddStoreAsynchronously = false if let mom = NSManagedObjectModel.makeManagedObjectModel(for: [Page.self]) { let container = NSPersistentCloudKitContainer(name: "Pages", managedObjectModel: mom) container.persistentStoreDescriptions = [desc] container.loadPersistentStores { _, err in if let err { fatalError(err.localizedDescription) } } // Initialize the CloudKit schema after the store finishes loading. try container.initializeCloudKitSchema() // Remove and unload the store from the persistent container. if let store = container.persistentStoreCoordinator.persistentStores.first { try container.persistentStoreCoordinator.remove(store) } } // let fileManager = FileManager.default // let sqliteURL = config.url // let urls: [URL] = [ // sqliteURL, // sqliteURL.deletingLastPathComponent().appendingPathComponent("default.store-shm"), // sqliteURL.deletingLastPathComponent().appendingPathComponent("default.store-wal"), // sqliteURL.deletingLastPathComponent().appendingPathComponent(".default_SUPPORT"), // sqliteURL.deletingLastPathComponent().appendingPathComponent("default_ckAssets") // ] // for url in urls { // try? fileManager.removeItem(at: url) // } } #endif newContainer = try ModelContainer(for: Page.self, configurations: config) // ERROR!!! } catch { fatalError(error.localizedDescription) } modelContainer = newContainer isReady = true } .onDisappear { stopAnimation() } } private func startAnimation() { timer = Timer.scheduledTimer( withTimeInterval: 0.5, repeats: true ) { _ in updateLoadingDots() } } private func stopAnimation() { timer?.invalidate() timer = nil } private func updateLoadingDots() { if loadingDots.count > 2 { loadingDots = "" } else { loadingDots += "." } } } import CoreData import SwiftData import SwiftUI @main struct MyApp: App { @State private var modelContainer: ModelContainer? @State private var isReady: Bool = false var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { if isReady, let modelContainer = modelContainer { ContentView() .modelContainer(modelContainer) } else { InitView(modelContainer: $modelContainer, isReady: $isReady) } } } }

Hi all, I’m encountering a consistent issue with SwiftData on watchOS when using CloudKit sync. After enabling: let config = ModelConfiguration(schema: schema, cloudKitDatabase: .automatic) …the app terminates ~30–60 seconds into a WKExtendedRuntimeSession. This happens specifically when: Always-On Display is OFF The iPhone is disconnected or in Airplane Mode The app is running in a WKExtendedRuntimeSession (e.g., used for meditation tracking) The Xcode logs show a warning: Background Task ("CoreData: CloudKit Setup"), was created over 30 seconds ago. In applications running in the background, this creates a risk of termination. It appears CloudKit sync setup is being triggered automatically and flagged by the system as an unmanaged long-running task, leading to termination. Workaround: Switching to: let config = ModelConfiguration(schema: schema, cloudKitDatabase: .none) …prevents the issue entirely — no background task warning, no crash. Feedback ID submitted: FB17685611 Just wanted to check if others have seen this behavior or found alternative solutions. It seems like something Apple may need to address in SwiftData’s CloudKit handling on watchOS.

Hello Devs, I'm encountering a persistent INTERNAL_ERROR (HTTP 500) when making Server-to-Server API calls to CloudKit, specifically when trying to hit the /users/current endpoint, even after meticulously verifying all client-side components. I'm hoping someone might have insight into what could cause this. Context: Goal: Authenticate to CloudKit from a Vercel Serverless Function (Node.js) to perform operations like record queries. Problem Endpoint: POST https://api.apple-cloudkit.com/database/1/iCloud.com.dannybaseball.Danny-Baseball/production/public/users/current Key Generation Method: Using the CloudKit Dashboard's "Tokens & Keys" -> "New Server-to-Server Key" flow, where I generate the private key using openssl ecparam -name prime256v1 -genkey -noout -out mykey.pem, then extract the public key using openssl ec -in mykey.pem -pubout, and paste the public key material (between BEGIN/END markers) into the dashboard. The private key was then converted to PKCS#8 format using openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -nocrypt -in mykey.pem -out mykey_pkcs8.pem. Current Setup Being Tested (in a Vercel Node.js function): CLOUDKIT_CONTAINER: iCloud.com.dannybaseball.Danny-Baseball CLOUDKIT_KEY_ID: 9368dddf141ce9bc0da743b9f69bc3eda132b9bb3e62a4167e428d4f320b656e (This is the Key ID generated from the CloudKit Dashboard for the public key I provided). CLOUDKIT_P8_KEY (Environment Variable): Contains the base64 encoded string of the entire content of my PKCS#8 formatted private key file. Key Processing in Code: const p8Base64 = process.env.CLOUDKIT_P8_KEY; const privateKeyPEM = Buffer.from(p8Base64, 'base64').toString('utf8'); // This privateKeyPEM string starts with "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----" and ends with "-----END PRIVATE KEY-----" const privateKey = crypto.createPrivateKey({ key: privateKeyPEM, format: 'pem' }); // This line SUCCEEDS without DECODER errors in my Vercel function logs. Use code with caution. JavaScript Request Body for /users/current: "{}" Signing String (message = Date:BodyHash:Path): Date: Correct ISO8601 format (e.g., "2025-05-21T19:38:11.886Z") BodyHash: Correct SHA256 hash of "{}", then Base64 encoded (e.g., "RBNvo1WzZ4oRRq0W9+hknpT7T8If536DEMBg9hyq/4o=") Path: Exactly /database/1/iCloud.com.dannybaseball.Danny-Baseball/production/public/users/current Headers: X-Apple-CloudKit-Request-KeyID: Set to the correct Key ID. X-Apple-CloudKit-Request-ISO8601Date: Set to the date used in the signature. X-Apple-CloudKit-Request-SignatureV1: Set to the generated signature. X-Apple-CloudKit-Environment: "production" Content-Type: "application/json" Observed Behavior & Logs: The Node.js crypto.createPrivateKey call successfully parses the decoded PEM key in my Vercel function. The request is sent to CloudKit. CloudKit responds with HTTP 500 and the following JSON body (UUID varies per request): { "uuid": "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx", "serverErrorCode": "INTERNAL_ERROR" } Use code with caution. Json This happens consistently. Previously, with other key pairs or different P8 processing attempts, I was getting AUTHENTICATION_FAILED (401) or local DECODER errors. Now that the key parsing is successful on my end with this current key pair and setup, I'm hitting this INTERNAL_ERROR. Troubleshooting Done: Verified Key ID (9368dddf...) is correct and corresponds to the key generated via CloudKit Dashboard. Verified Container ID (iCloud.com.dannybaseball.Danny-Baseball) is correct. Successfully parsed the private key from the environment variable (after base64 decoding) within the Vercel function. Meticulously checked the signing string components (Date, BodyHash, Path) against Apple's documentation. Path format is /database/1////. Ensured all required headers are present with correct values. Local Node.js tests (bypassing Vercel but using the same key data and signing logic) also result in this INTERNAL_ERROR. Question: What could cause CloudKit to return an INTERNAL_ERROR (500) for a /users/current request when the client-side key parsing is successful and all request components (path, body hash for signature, date, headers) appear to conform exactly to the Server-to-Server Web Services Reference? Are there any known subtle issues with EC keys generated via openssl ecparam (and then converted to PKCS#8) that might lead to this, even if crypto.createPrivateKey parses them in Node.js? Could there be an issue with my specific Key ID or container that would manifest this way, requiring Apple intervention? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I can provide more detailed logs of the request components if needed. Thank you!

Hi I am a new self taught developer who is atm working on the backend of my app. My app successfully collects location of users and stores it to cloudkits public database. I now want to write a python script and run it on a local server on my windows terminal which fetches users who are in a certain proximity to each other so i can trigger a flow on the app. Can someone first of all tell me if this is even possible the way im attempting it. Also atm all i am doing is generating a server to server key which makes me generate a public and private key and i use the private key file eckey.pem plus key id plus container plus team ID to query the required data. but when i run it i get a 401 error (no authorization). I am so stumped as there arent many resources available to help direct me to the right path. Can someone please offer some help/insight/confidence. thanks alot

Hello there, I have a problem reaching the CloudKit dashboard. Every time I login, the login successes but then I get the error: An error has caused this web page to stop working correctly. This also happens when I click on the Button CloudKit dashboard. Then I can reload the page, but the same errors occurs again and again. Can someone help me with this problem? Thank you very much

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 { static let shared = CoreDataManager() let container: NSPersistentContainer let context: NSManagedObjectContext init() { container = NSPersistentCloudKitContainer(name: "ABC") container.persistentStoreDescriptions = [NSPersistentStoreDescription(url: FileManager.default.containerURL(forSecurityApplicationGroupIdentifier: "some group name")!.appendingPathComponent("CoreDataMama.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 container.viewContext.save() print("Saved successfully") } catch { print("Error in saving data: \(error.localizedDescription)") } } } Other files being unaltered, my sample apps aren't sharing data. What am I doing wrong? Just FYI, I'm using actual devices. Thank you for your reading this topic.

I'm using SwiftData with CloutKit with a very simple app. Data syncs between iOS, iPadOS, and visionOS, but not macOS. From what I can tell, macOS is never getting CK messages unless I'm running the app from Xcode. I can listen for the CK messages and show a line in a debug overlay. This works perfectly when I run from Xcode. I can see the notifications and see updates in my app. However, if I just launch the app outside of Xcode I will never see any changes or notifications. It is as if the Mac app never even tries to contact CloudKit. Schema has been deployed in the CloudKit console. The app is based on the multi-platform Xcode template. Again, only the macOS version has this issue. Is there some extra permission or setting I need to set up in order to use CloudKit on macOS? @State private var publisher = NotificationCenter.default.publisher(for: NSPersistentCloudKitContainer.eventChangedNotification).receive(on: DispatchQueue.main) .onReceive(publisher) { notification in // Listen for changes in CK events if let userInfo = notification.userInfo, let event = userInfo[NSPersistentCloudKitContainer.eventNotificationUserInfoKey] as? NSPersistentCloudKitContainer.Event { let message = "CloudKit Sync: \(event.type.rawValue) - \(event.succeeded ? "Success" : "Failed") - \(event.description)" // Store for UI display syncNotifications.append(message) if syncNotifications.count > 10 { syncNotifications.removeFirst() } } } .overlay(alignment: .topTrailing) { if !syncNotifications.isEmpty { VStack(alignment: .leading) { ForEach(syncNotifications, id: \.self) { notification in Text(notification) .padding(8) } } .frame(width: 800, height: 500) .cornerRadius(8) .background(Color.secondary.opacity(0.2)) .padding() .transition(.move(edge: .top)) } }

I have developed an podcast app, where subscriped podcast & episodes synched with iCloud. So its working fine with iOS & iPad with latest os version, but iCloud not synching in iPod with version 15. Please help me to fix this. Thanks Devendra K.

I have a CoreData model with two configuration - but several problems. Notably the viewContext only shows data from the .private configuration. Here is the setup: The private configuration holds entities, for example, User and Course and the shared one holds entities, for example, Player and League. I setup the NSPersistentStoreDescriptions to use the same container but with a databaseScope of .private/.shared and with the configuration of "Private"/"Shared". loadPersistentStores() does not report an error. If I try container.initializeCloudKitSchema() only the .private configuration produces CKRecord types. If I create a companion app using one configuration (w/ all entities) the schema initialization creates all CKRecord types AND I can populate some data in the .private and a created CKShare. I see that data in the CloudKit dashboard. If I axe the companion app and run the real thing w/ two configurations, the viewContext only has the .private data. Why? If when querying history I use NSPersistentHistoryTransaction.fetchRequest I get a nil return when using two configurations (but non-nil when using one).

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.

I've recently added iCloud backup on my chat app. Conversations are backing up fine but some users are losing their chats and when I see the telemetry it show "BAD_REQUEST" error. I couldn't find any details or solution for it. Does anyone has any idea what it could be? My development scheme is already fully deployed to production.

I'm building a macOS + iOS SwiftUI app using Xcode 14.1b3 on a Mac running macOS 13.b11. The app uses Core Data + CloudKit. With development builds, CloudKit integration works on the Mac app and the iOS app. Existing records are fetched from iCloud, and new records are uploaded to iCloud. Everybody's happy. With TestFlight builds, the iOS app has no problems. But CloudKit integration isn't working in the Mac app at all. No existing records are fetched, no new records are uploaded. In the Console, I see this message: error: CoreData+CloudKit: Failed to set up CloudKit integration for store: <NSSQLCore: 0x1324079e0> (URL: <local file url>) Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection to service named com.apple.cloudd was invalidated: failed at lookup with error 159 - Sandbox restriction." UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=The connection to service named com.apple.cloudd was invalidated: failed at lookup with error 159 - Sandbox restriction.} I thought it might be that I was missing the com.apple.security.network.client entitlement, but adding that didn't help. Any suggestions what I might be missing? (It's my first sandboxed Mac app, so it might be really obvious to anyone but me.)

Hi all, I am using SwiftData and cloudkit and I am having an extremely persistent bug. I am building an education section on a app that's populated with lessons via a local JSON file. I don't need this lesson data to sync to cloudkit as the lessons are static, just need them imported into swiftdata so I've tried to use the modelcontainer like this: static func createSharedModelContainer() -> ModelContainer { // --- Define Model Groups --- let localOnlyModels: [any PersistentModel.Type] = [ Lesson.self, MiniLesson.self, Quiz.self, Question.self ] let cloudKitSyncModels: [any PersistentModel.Type] = [ User.self, DailyTip.self, UserSubscription.self, UserEducationProgress.self // User progress syncs ] However, what happens is that I still get Lesson and MiniLesson record types on cloudkit and for some reason as well, whenever I update the data models or delete and reinstall the app on simulator, the lessons duplicate (what seems to happen is that a set of lessons comes from the JSON file as it should), and then 1-2 seconds later, an older set of lessons gets synced from cloudkit. I can delete the old set of lessons if I just delete the lessons and mini lessons record types, but if I update the data model again, this error reccurrs. Sorry, I don't know if I managed to explain this well but essentially I just want to stop the lessons and minilessons from being uploaded to cloudkit as I think this will fix the problem. Am I doing something wrong with the code?

I have transitioned to CKSyncEngine for syncing data to iCloud, and it is working quite well. I have a question regarding best practices for modifying and saving a CKRecord which already exists in the private or shared database. In my current app, most CKRecords will never be modified after saving to the database, so I do not persist a received record locally after updating my local data model. In the rare event that the local data for that record is modified, I manually fetch the associated server record from the database, modify it, and then use CKSyncEngine to save the modified record. As an alternative method, I can create a new CKRecord locally with the corresponding recordID and the modified data, and then use CKSyncEngine to attempt to save that record to the database. Doing so generates an error in the delegate method handleSentRecordZoneChanges, where I receive the local record I tried to save back inevent.failedRecordSaves with a .serverRecordChanged error, along with the corresponding server CKRecord. I can then update that server record with the local data and re-save using CKSyncEngine. I have not yet seen any issues when doing it this way. The advantage of the latter method is that CKSyncEngine handles the entire database operation, eliminating the manual fetch step. My question is: is this an acceptable practice, or could this result in other unforeseen issues?

In core-data I have a contact and location entity. I have one-to-many relationship from contact to locations and one-to-one from location to contact. I create contact in a seperate view and save it. Later I create a location, fetch the created contact, and save it while specifying the relationship between location and contact contact and test if it actually did it and it works. viewContext.perform { do { // Set relationship using the generated accessor method currentContact.addToLocations(location) try viewContext.save() print("Saved successfully. Locations count:", currentContact.locations?.count ?? 0) if let locs = currentContact.locations { print("📍 Contact has \(locs.count) locations.") for loc in locs { print("➡️ Location: \(String(describing: (loc as AnyObject).locationName ?? "Unnamed"))") } } } catch { print("Failed to save location: \(error.localizedDescription)") } } In my NSManagedObject class properties I have this : for Contact: @NSManaged public var locations: NSSet? for Location: @NSManaged public var contact: Contact? in my persistenceController I have: for desc in [publicStore, privateStore] { desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: NSPersistentStoreRemoteChangeNotificationPostOptionKey) desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: NSPersistentHistoryTrackingKey) desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: NSMigratePersistentStoresAutomaticallyOption) desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: NSInferMappingModelAutomaticallyOption) desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: "CKSyncCoreDataDebug") // Optional: Debug sync // Add these critical options for relationship sync desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: "NSPersistentStoreCloudKitEnforceRecordExistsKey") desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: "NSPersistentStoreCloudKitMaintainReferentialIntegrityKey") // Add this specific option to force schema update desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: "NSPersistentStoreRemoteStoreUseCloudKitSchemaKey") } When synchronization happens on CloudKit side, it creates CKRecords: CD_Contact and CD_Location. However for CD_Location it creates the relationship CD_contact as a string and references the CD_Contact. This I thought should have come as REFERENCE On the CD_Contact there is no CD_locations field at all. I do see the relationships being printed on coredata side but it does not come as REFERENCE on cloudkit. Spent over a day on this. Is this normal, what am I doing wrong here? Can someone advise?

I'm a first time developer for Swift, (getting on a bit!) but after programming in VB back in the late 90s I wanted to write an app for iPhone. I think I might have gone about it the wrong way, but I've got an app that works great on my iPhone or works great on my iPad. It saves the data persistently on device, but, no matter how much I try, what I read and even resorting to AI (ChatGPT & Gemini) I still can't get it to save the data on iCloud to synchronise between the two and work across the devices. I think it must be something pretty fundamental I'm doing (or more likely not doing) that is causing the issue. I'm setting up my signing and capabilities as per the available instructions but I always get a fatal error. I think it might be something to do with making fields optional, but at this point I'm second guessing myself and feeling a complete failure. Any advice or pointers would be really gratefully appreciated. I like my app and would like eventually to get it on the App Store but at this point in time I feel it should be on the failed projects heap! I've even tried a new Xcode project for iOS and asking it to use SwiftData and CloudKit - the default project should work - right? But it absolutely doesn't for me. Please send help!!

I have multiple app ids that are registered with Push Notification, however they do not hsow up in the Push Notification Console for testing.

Hi guys. Can someone please confirm this bug so I report it? The issue is that SwiftData relationships don't update the views in some specific situations on devices running iOS 18 Beta. One clear example is with CloudKit. I created a small example for testing. The following code creates two @models, one to store bands and another to store their records. The following code works with no issues. (You need to connect to a CloudKit container and test it on two devices) import SwiftUI import SwiftData struct ContentView: View { @Environment(\.modelContext) private var modelContext @Query private var records: [Record] var body: some View { NavigationStack { List(records) { record in VStack(alignment: .leading) { Text(record.title) Text(record.band?.name ?? "Undefined") } } .toolbar { ToolbarItem { Button("Add Record") { let randomNumber = Int.random(in: 1...100) let newBand = Band(name: "New Band \(randomNumber)", records: nil) modelContext.insert(newBand) let newRecord = Record(title: "New Record \(randomNumber)", band: newBand) modelContext.insert(newRecord) } } } } } } @Model final class Record { var title: String = "" var band: Band? init(title: String, band: Band?) { self.title = title self.band = band } } @Model final class Band { var name: String = "" var records: [Record]? init(name: String, records: [Record]?) { self.name = name self.records = records } } This view includes a button at the top to add a new record associated with a new band. The data appears on both devices, but if you include more views inside the List, the views on the second device are not updated to show the values of the relationships. For example, if you extract the row to a separate view, the second device shows the relationships as "Undefined". You can try the following code. struct ContentView: View { @Environment(\.modelContext) private var modelContext @Query private var records: [Record] var body: some View { NavigationStack { List { ForEach(records) { record in RecordRow(record: record) } } .toolbar { ToolbarItem { Button("Add Record") { let randomNumber = Int.random(in: 1...100) let newBand = Band(name: "New Band \(randomNumber)", records: nil) modelContext.insert(newBand) let newRecord = Record(title: "New Record \(randomNumber)", band: newBand) modelContext.insert(newRecord) } } } } } } struct RecordRow: View { let record: Record var body: some View { VStack(alignment: .leading) { Text(record.title) Text(record.band?.name ?? "Undefined") } } } Here I use a ForEach loop and move the row to a separate view. Now on the second device the relationships are nil, so the row shows the text "Undefined" instead of the name of the band. I attached an image from my iPad. I inserted all the information on my iPhone. The first three rows were inserted with the first view. But the last two rows were inserted after I extracted the rows to a separate view. Here you can see that the relationships are nil and therefore shown as "Undefined". The views are not updated to show the real value of the relationship. This example shows the issue with CloudKit, but this also happens locally in some situations. The system doesn't detect updates in relationships and therefore doesn't refresh the views. Please, let me know if you can reproduce the issue. I'm using Mac Sequoia 15.1, and two devices with iOS 18.0.
