Hi,

I created an app in Electron and I'm using electron forge to make the app and pkg file. Each time I make the project the .app and .pkg files are created with no errors. When I run the "spctl -a -vvv -t install" command on the .app file, it says that the app is accepted. However, when I run the command on the .pkg file it says that it is rejected with "source=Unnotarized Developer ID" and the "origin=Develop ID Installer: " is the valid certificate that I created. Is someone able to help me troubleshoot this issue?

I generally recommend that you not use spctl to check whether your product will pass Gatekeeper. Rather, use the process described in Testing a Notarised Product. If that reveals a problem, post back here with the details and we can take a look.
