TestFlight external submission fails: ENTITY_UNPROCESSABLE.BETA_CONTRACT_MISSING

I’m having a TestFlight/App Store Connect issue that appears to be account/backend related.

App: CityPulse: Find the Move Apple ID: 6787293748 Build: 1.0.0 (4)

The build is uploaded and processed in App Store Connect. It shows Ready to Submit / Expires in 87 days. It is also attached to Internal Testers and appears in the TestFlight app on my iPhone.

However, tapping Install in TestFlight fails with:

“The requested app is not available or doesn’t exist.”

External testing also fails. When I add build 1.0.0 (4) to an external testing group and click Submit for Review on the “What to Test” modal, App Store Connect shows:

“There was an error processing your request. Please try again later.”

I opened DevTools and found the failed request:

Request: betaAppReviewSubmissions Status: 422 Error: ENTITY_UNPROCESSABLE.BETA_CONTRACT_MISSING Message: Beta contract is missing for the app. Beta Contract is missing.

I have already completed/saved:

  • Test Information
  • Beta License Agreement
  • Privacy Policy URL
  • Marketing URL
  • DSA compliance
  • Paid Apps Agreement
  • Age rating
  • Internal tester group
  • External tester group

There are no visible pending beta agreements in App Store Connect. Has anyone found a way to trigger or repair the missing TestFlight beta contract, or does this require Apple engineering to fix on the backend?
