Unnotarized Developer ID

I am trying to assist another developer with getting their application Notarized, this is their first macOS application and it's been a right old slog, quite a few things were wrong that prevented the application from being code signed in the first place.


However we've got that working now; except that the Gate Keeper check, which according to the documents should be done before submitting to Apple for Notarization. Continually fails for them.


source=Unnotarized Developer ID

origin=Developer ID Application: <private>


When I try it on my machine using my own Developer ID certificate, it works. So it's obviously something tied specifically to their account.


Can someone please tell me what this error actually means and how I go about solving it, so they can submit their application for Notarization?

Hello rowlands,


Did you Find Any Solution for your issue "Unnotarized Developer ID" , i have same problem.

It would be best to start your own question instead of biggy-backing onto this old question.


I'm not sure what documents the OP was originally referring to. Gatekeeper is the technology that does the notarization check. Therefore, it would be impossible to check Gatekeeper before doing the step that Gatekeeper depends on.


It sounds like they are reading some older documentation and getting confused due to new behaviour. Existing developers are still able to bypass the notarization requirement, but new developers cannot.
