Cant Create/Update App Clips

Hello, I also have the same issue. Creating or pushing updates to AppClips was working fine last month, but now I see the same error.

{
  "errors" : [ {
    "id" : "38a14d58-ff3a-4c77-8e0d-dba260685700",
    "status" : "409",
    "code" : "ENTITY_ERROR.INCLUDED.INVALID_ID",
    "title" : "The provided entity id is invalid",
    "detail" : "The provided included entity id 'EN' has invalid format",
    "source" : {
      "pointer" : "/included/0/id"
    }
  } ]
}

It looks like @pumpkinpaul and I have done some of the same investigation and testing. I agree with everything he has outlined and we have come to the same frustrating conclusion. A bug was probably introduced sometime in between these two dates. I have this information from recorded HTTP interactions as part of our automated testing. I have included the request IDs here in case they help with the debugging.

Success on Nov 12 with a Daiquiri version of 25RELEASE142:

X-Request-Id:
  - TQFDTUQATMJM246YITQXKVXIPM

Failure on Dec 19 with a Daiquiri version of 25HOTFIX33:

X-Request-Id:
  - XVPVR2MEFH7DBE5IEV5YZ6R5JI

Please find the failed request attached. The same payload was sent last month with only a slight tweak to the URL so as not to get a conflict during creation.

@jasonknebel thanks for posting here.

If you create an app clip manually at App Store Connect, does it get published? If so, how many app clips do you have in your app?

One more question. Do you happen to experience any of these two issues?

I am also having the same issues!

Thank you for these reports, can you please try to use the proper format of the id field for inline creation? For instance if you used:

"id": "EN",

It should look like

"id": "${EN}",

Should you continue to have trouble please file a Feedback Assistant report including the full request and response of your API call. You can share the feedback number here to assist us with looking into the issue.

@Developer Program Support thanks for responding!

It does still happen using both formats that you mentioned.

Also, as I mentioned in the original post, it used to work fine and it suddently stopped working ~a week ago or so without any intervention from our side.

@Developer Program Support

I have tried the new format and still encounter issues. In fact, using "${EN}" has two errors instead of one.

As @pumpkinpaul mentioned, this was working and then it broke.

@Developer Program Support Please let us know when you have updates. Thanks!

@Developer Program Support ping, it's still happening.

We currently have to manually create/update all app clips by hand.

Hey @jasonknebel we were able to fix it using the new format.

Someone replied at Feedback Assistant to try the new format again and it finally worked!

We had to change these two arguments from 'EN' to '${EN}':

// Before
'data.relationships.localizations.data.0.id' => 'EN',
'included.0.id' => 'EN',

// Now
'data.relationships.localizations.data.0.id' => '${EN}',
'included.0.id' => '${EN}',

If that helps, do you mind sharing a URL of one of your app clips or just manually check this thing scanning an NFC card with a URL that uses your app clip host but random path that's not associated with an app clip? https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/803187

We were able to get it fixed by changing 'EN' to '${EN}'. With '${EN}' it seems to be working fine now.

// Before
'data.relationships.localizations.data.0.id' => 'EN',
'included.0.id' => 'EN',
 
// Now
'data.relationships.localizations.data.0.id' => '${EN}',
'included.0.id' => '${EN}',

Yes, this works for me now too.

Thanks @pumpkinpaul
