I've been searching all over the web trying to find the proper way to get all records created by a specific user in CloudKit. I am able to get the correct id using: guard let userRecordID = try? await container.userRecordID() else { return } I can see that the id returned is associated with records in my CloudKit dashboard. So I would expect that the following would get those records: let predicate = NSPredicate(format: "%K == %@", #keyPath(CKRecord.creatorUserRecordID), userRecordID) let query = CKQuery(recordType: "CKUser", predicate: predicate) But instead when I use that query it returns nothing. It is successful but with nothing returned... Any ideas why this would be happening? P.S. I have also tried constructing the predicate using the reference, but I get the same result - success with no results. P.S.2 Also worth mentioning that I am trying to get the results from the public database and I have set my CKContainer to the correct container id.

Something has caused my CloudKit queries to fail. On the dashboard I get an error message "Failed to execute query" when I try to "SORT BY" a field. The field is listed under Indexes as "sortable". For a different field, when I enter the field under "FILTER BY", and before I tap "Query", I get "No results". That field is listed under the Indexes as "queryable". It used to work fine. I have described this further, with screenshots at FB16114560

Hi everyone, I have an application that allows to share Core Data records through CKShare. If I compile the app in debug or release mode on my devices with Xcode the Sharing functionality work like a charm, but if I download the application from App Store doesn't work, It seems that can't generate the link for sharing. Does anyone have any idea why? Thanks

Hi everyone. I created test-apps years ago. Now I looked into https://icloud.developer.apple.com/dashboard/ There I found these old apps listed. How do I delete these Apps in the Console and entirely from my account? I don't have the project files anymore. All the best! 😊

So the App Store got deleted or something after I got iOS 18 so then I asked Siri to open it for me and it said un supported URL

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!

I have already built an app using SwiftData and now I want to introduce CloudKit features in it, what should I do? I'm totally new to this part. Thank you!

Are “Notification Service Extensions” officially supported on macOS? I’m developing an app for both iOS and macOS (not Catalyst). I’ve successfully setup a separate notification service extension for both the iOS and macOS targets. The iOS extension is modifying the CKSubscription push notification as expected. However the macOS notification service extension is not being launched at all no matter what I seem to try, matching deployment targets etc. I’m also asking because although Apple docs report that support for UNNotificationServiceExtension was added in macOS 10.14, the article at https://developer.apple.com/documentation/usernotifications/modifying_content_in_newly_delivered_notifications makes no mention of macOS, only iOS.

Hey there, I’m feeling pretty desperate at this point, as my most recent update to Xcode 16.1 and the new 18.1 simulators has basically made it impossible for me to work on my apps. The same app and same code run fine in the 18.0 simulators with the same iCloud account logged in. I’ve tried multiple simulators with the same results, even on different computers. I’ve also tried logging in repeatedly without any luck. The CloudKit database logs don’t show any errors or suspicious entries. Reinstalling the app on the simulator doesn't help either. Whenever I launch the application in Xcode, I'm getting: error: CoreData+CloudKit: -[NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate _performSetupRequest:]_block_invoke(1240): <NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate: 0x600003d213b0>: Failed to set up CloudKit integration for store: <NSSQLCore: 0x103f124e0> (URL: file:///Users/kerstenbroich/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/57BC78CE-DB2A-4AC0-9D7A-43C386305F56/data/Containers/Data/Application/EFDE9B05-0584-47C5-80AE-F2FF5994860C/Library/Application%20Support/Model.sqlite) <CKError 0x600000d3dfe0: "Partial Failure" (2/1011); "Failed to modify some record zones"; partial errors: { com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.zone:__defaultOwner__ = <CKError 0x600000d7c090: "Internal Error" (1/5000); "Failed user key sync"> }> error: CoreData+CloudKit: -[NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate recoverFromError:](2310): <NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate: 0x600003d213b0> - Attempting recovery from error: <CKError 0x600000d3dfe0: "Partial Failure" (2/1011); "Failed to modify some record zones"; partial errors: { com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.zone:__defaultOwner__ = <CKError 0x600000d7c090: "Internal Error" (1/5000); "Failed user key sync"> }> error: CoreData+CloudKit: -[NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate _recoverFromPartialError:forStore:inMonitor:]_block_invoke(2773): <NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate: 0x600003d213b0>: Found unknown error as part of a partial failure: <CKError 0x600000d7c090: "Internal Error" (1/5000); "Failed user key sync"> error: CoreData+CloudKit: -[NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate _recoverFromPartialError:forStore:inMonitor:](2820): <NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate: 0x600003d213b0>: Error recovery failed because the following fatal errors were found: { "<CKRecordZoneID: 0x600000d62340; zoneName=com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.zone, ownerName=__defaultOwner__>" = "<CKError 0x600000d7c090: \"Internal Error\" (1/5000); \"Failed user key sync\">"; } Any help/ideas would be much appreciated, because I have no clue what to try next.

Hello, I’m upgrading my app from Core Data to SwiftData. Due to my old setup the Core Data store has an explicitly name like „Something.sqlite“, because it was defined via NSPersistentContainer(name: "Something") before switching to SwiftData. Now my goal is to migrate the Core Data stack to SwiftData, while moving it to an App Group (for Widget support) as well as enable iCloud sync via CloudKit. Working Migration without App Group & CloudKit I’ve managed to get my migration running without migrating it to an App Group and CloudKit support like so: @main struct MyAppName: App { let container: ModelContainer init() { // Legacy placement of the Core Data file. let dataUrl = URL.applicationSupportDirectory.appending(path: "Something.sqlite") do { // Create SwiftData container with migration and custom URL pointing to legacy Core Data file container = try ModelContainer( for: Foo.self, Bar.self, migrationPlan: MigrationPlan.self, configurations: ModelConfiguration(url: dataUrl)) } catch { fatalError("Failed to initialize model container.") } } var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } .modelContainer(container) } } How To Migrate to App Group & CloudKit? I’ve already tried to use the ModelConfiguration with a name, but it seems to only look for a .store file and thus doesn’t copy over the Core Data contents. let fullSchema = Schema([Foo.self, Bar.self]) let configuration = ModelConfiguration("Something", schema: fullSchema) Can someone help me how to do this migration or point me into the right direction? I can’t find anything relating this kind of migration …

Currently, I have an Unversioned Schema, and lightweight changes are automatically applied to the Models. However, I'm planning to transition to a VersionedSchema, and I have a few questions: Do I need to write all lightweight migrations in the Migration Plan? or is it automatically applied like the Unversioned Schema? What happens if I do not create a lightweight migration? and just directly do lightweight changes to the latest VersionedSchema (example: Add a new property)?

Hey all - Been building my app and all has been going well with successful builds through to test flight. However, I have just added CKSharing support into the app and therefore into the entitlements to allow collaboration within the app. As soon as I have added this, I can no longer build due to a signing certificate error stating my provisioning profile just not allow for CKSharing... "Provisioning profile "iOS Team Provisioning Profile: com.MyApp" doesn't include the com.apple.developer.cksharing entitlement." However, iCloud is enabled within my app profile, and all other cloudkit features have worked up until adding that specific entitlement. Any help or guidance to get passed this would be greatly appreciated.

I'm using SwiftData, and I'm using iCloud's CloudKit feature to back up my data. The problem here is that once you start backing up your data, you can't erase it completely. Even if the user adds 4 data and erases 4 again, I'm using about 2.5kb. I don't know how the user using the app will accept this. I'm trying to provide the user with the ability to erase data at once, what should I do??

Hello, I wanted to sync my Swift Data App with iCloud. I provided default values to all my models, made very relationship between my models optional. Then, at Signing and Capabilities, I finally added Background Modes (and checked Remote notifications) and iCloud (and checked CloudKit and added a container with my bundle id). Now I receive these errors every time I run my app on a device that is connect to iCloud CoreData: error: CoreData+CloudKit: -[NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate _recoverFromError:withZoneIDs:forStore:inMonitor:](2620): <NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate: 0x302de80f0> - Failed to recover from error: CKErrorDomain:15 Recovery encountered the following error: (null):0 CoreData: CloudKit: CoreData+CloudKit: -[NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate _finishedRequest:withResult:](3582): Finished request: <NSCloudKitMirroringDelegateSetupRequest: 0x3031d4460> 53CB1DFC-E589-4945-8AF1-36126756110B with result: <NSCloudKitMirroringResult: 0x301c79320> storeIdentifier: 41F2B808-5C97-44B3-BC28-5534FEBCCF2C success: 0 madeChanges: 0 error: <CKError 0x301c98870: "Partial Failure" (2/1011); "Failed to modify some record zones"; uuid = 044262C6-5136-4989-823C-B0430F7B87DC; container ID = "iCloud.lu.yansoisson.blip-notes"; partial errors: { com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.zone:__defaultOwner__ = <CKError 0x301c7a9a0: "Server Rejected Request" (15/2000); op = 15C2EFE32CB459E1; uuid = 044262C6-5136-4989-823C-B0430F7B87DC> }> CoreData: CloudKit: CoreData+CloudKit: -[NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate checkAndExecuteNextRequest](3551): <NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate: 0x302de80f0>: Checking for pending requests.

I've developed an app that allow me to send messages to all users by entering a record in Public database. On each users device, the app takes that Public record and creates a record in their Private database to track the Read and Deleted status. It works flawlessly on the simulator and about 1/3 of the devices enrolled in my TestFlight. The other 2/3 are unable to write to their Private database. In fact, the CKContainer.default().privateCloudDatabase.save() operation causes the app to crash if I let it run. I've looked at every Google link and I just can't figure out why this works for 1/3 of the users, but not the other 2/3. Incidentally, the 2/3 of the group that can't save to their Private database are also unable to save their Notification Subscription. All devices are running iOS 18.0 or better iPhone 11 through 16 in testing pool. Each portion of the working/not working group are a mix of iPhone versions. if !found && checkIcloudStatus() { CKContainer.default().privateCloudDatabase.save(loadPrivateData(n: processedMessages[index].recordName)) { returnedRecord, returnedError in print("Adding new message to Private and error is: \(String(describing: returnedError))") DispatchQueue.main.async { self.processedMessages[index].record = returnedRecord ?? CKRecord(recordType: "messages_private") self.processedMessages[index].unRead = true self.processedMessages[index].deleted = false } } } func loadPrivateData(n: String) -> CKRecord { let record = CKRecord(recordType: "messages_private") record["deleted"] = "false" record["messageId"] = n record["unRead"] = "true" return record }

I have opened the Push Notification and the Broadcast Capability at developer Capabilities, but when I call the api https://api-manage-broadcast.sandbox.push.apple.com:2195/1/apps/already change to my Identifiers/channels, I always got the "TopicMismatch". Did I set something wrong somewhere?

I want to clear all the data in the zone, but I can't delete it. Below is my code, no logs are printed when running. static func clearData() { let coordinator = shared.container.persistentStoreCoordinator let fm = FileManager.default for d in shared.container.persistentStoreDescriptions { guard let url = d.url else { continue } do { if fm.fileExists(atPath: url.path()) { try coordinator.destroyPersistentStore(at: url, type: .sqlite) } } catch { logger.debug("Failed to delete db file, \(error)") } } for description in shared.container.persistentStoreDescriptions { guard let originalStoreURL = description.url else { continue } let walFileURL = originalStoreURL.deletingPathExtension().appendingPathExtension("sqlite-wal") let shmFileURL = originalStoreURL.deletingPathExtension().appendingPathExtension("sqlite-shm") for url in [originalStoreURL, walFileURL, shmFileURL] { do { if fm.fileExists(atPath: url.path()) { try fm.removeItem(at: url) } } catch { logger.debug("Failed to delete db file, \(error)") } } } let container = CKContainer(identifier: appContainerID) container.privateCloudDatabase.fetchAllRecordZones { zones, error in if let error = error { print("Error fetching zones: ") } else if let zone = zones?.first, zone.zoneID.zoneName == "_defaultZone" { PersistenceController.shared.container.purgeObjectsAndRecordsInZone(with: zone.zoneID, in: nil) { ckShare, error in if let error = error { print("Error purge zones: \(error)") } if ckShare == nil { print("ckShare is nil") } } } } }

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

I'm trying to add Cloud Kit integration to SwiftData app (that is already in the App Store, btw). When the app is installed on devices that are directly connected to Xcode, it works (a bit slow, but pretty well). But when the app is distributed to Testflight internal testers, the synchronization doesn't happen at all. So, is this situation normal and how can I test apps with iCloud integration properly?

I send APNs notifications to my devices with the CloudKit dashboard. I test with two devices; Device with Silent Push Working Successfully: iOS version 16.5.1 (c), Model iPhone Xs Silent Push Failed Device: iOS version 15.3.1, Model iPhone Xr Normal alert notifications work successfully on both devices. But I can't see any log in my project even though silent push is sent successfully on one device. What I've Checked: content-available is set to 1. My app is not in kill state, it is in foreground or pending in the background. When I send simple notifications, I can see logs in my swift project and notifications on physical devices without any problem. No, my certificate has not expired and if there was a problem with it, I would not be able to see the normal notifications. My phone is not in power saving mode and the “Background App Refresh” option is turned on in the app's settings. Both devices in charging state. App capabilities: Background Modes is enabled with Remote Notifications, Background Fetch, Background Processing. CloudKit Dashboard After Sending Silent Push: My AppDelegate Class In Swift Project: import SwiftUI import UIKit import UserNotifications class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate { var window: UIWindow? func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool { UNUserNotificationCenter.current().requestAuthorization(options: [.alert, .sound, .badge]) { granted, error in if granted { DispatchQueue.main.async { UIApplication.shared.registerForRemoteNotifications() } } } return true } func application(_ application: UIApplication, didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken deviceToken: Data) { let tokenParts = deviceToken.map { data in String(format: "%02.2hhx", data) } let token = tokenParts.joined() print("Device Token: \(token)") } func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFailToRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithError error: Error) { print("Failed to register: \(error)") } func application(_ application: UIApplication, didReceiveRemoteNotification userInfo: [AnyHashable: Any], fetchCompletionHandler completionHandler: @escaping (UIBackgroundFetchResult) -> Void) { logInfo("Received Push Notification: \(userInfo)") if let aps = userInfo["aps"] as?
