Location Push Service Extension Entitlement – Request Process

Hi team,

Earlier, Apple’s documentation clearly mentioned that we needed to submit a request to Apple to obtain the Location Push Service Extension (com.apple.developer.location.push) entitlement.

However, when I checked the Apple Developer Portal now, I don’t see an option to request this entitlement for my App ID.

Could you please confirm whether this entitlement is still required to be requested from Apple, or if the process has changed and the request is no longer required?

Thanks

Thank you so much for this great post. Yes the documentation shows

Without this entitlement, your code receives an error when it calls startMonitoringLocationPushes(completion:).

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/entitlements/com.apple.developer.location.push

However, there is no option available when attempting to submit that entitlement. Therefore, I believe the process may have undergone a change, and the documentation may require updating if that is accurate. May I kindly request that you submit a radar against the documentation so that we can route it internally to ensure that all necessary updates are made? As right now there is a discrepancy.

Once you open the bug report, please post the FB number here for my reference.
