Hello Fellow Developers,

I have a few distribution certificates that will expire wihin the next 30 days and was currious why this is?

I was also looking for advice because the documentation seems overwhelming. Is there a way to renew a distribution certificate?

If I click on the certificate in question there are 2 buttons one to download and one to revoke if it will no longer be valid why would I download it.

I know this is a lot of questions but I feel overwhelmed and dont know where to start, I'm currently trying to read through the documentation but theres so much I dont understand. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Which version Xcode?

You're in the Mac App Sandbox forum, but titled as iOS, so...might want to clear that up.

> Is there a way to renew a distribution certificate? heres so much I dont understand

The answer to 'is there a way', is yes, same as the first time, but I'm confused how you understood enough then, but not now?

Hint - Xcode's automatic provisioning...but that depends on which version you're using - seen this thread?

As for expiring certs, are you asking about the 30 days, or asking about why they don't last forever?
