Hello,

My first notarization request with a new Developer ID account has been "In Progress" since September 29, 2026, with no result and no log.

  • Submission ID: e5e4658b-eb0e-4d80-a3b2-524f96b9f598
  • Created: 2026-09-29T16:16:42Z
  • File: Resovia.zip (macOS app, bundle ID fr.auxentis.ressources, version 1.0.1, universal)
  • Team ID: HSVNXVL4X2
  • Submitted with notarytool from a GitHub Actions macOS runner; the upload completed and the request appears in notarytool history, still "In Progress" (checked on October 2 at 08:56 UTC)

I have read that first submissions may be held for in-depth analysis, so I have not resubmitted the same build. Could someone check whether this request is still being processed or needs an action on my side?

Thank you.

I have read that first submissions may be held for in-depth analysis …

Right. That’s very likely to be the case here. I’ve included a copy of my standard spiel about this below.

Given that I missed your post last Friday, I suspect that this has cleared already. If it’s not cleared by Wednesday, please reply back here and I’ll dig deeper.

Share and Enjoy

You can expect that most uploads will be notarised quickly. Occasionally, some uploads are held for additional analysis and may take longer to complete. As you notarise your apps, the system will learn how to recognise them, and you should see fewer delays.

For lots of additional info about notarisation, see Notarisation Resources. Specifically, it links to a Q&A with the notary service team that’s quite instructive.
