Hi everyone, I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program a few days ago and received the enrollment-complete email. I enrolled myself, I am the only member, and I should be the Account Holder. What I see Xcode > Settings > Accounts shows one Apple ID with one team. The Role is "Admin", not Account Holder or Agent. The team page in Xcode shows a green check for Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles. However, on developer.apple.com, I can open Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles, and the site lists me as both Account Holder and Admin. In Xcode, Manage Certificates > + > Developer ID Application fails. The message says only the Account Holder can create it. What I already tried Signed out of my Apple ID in Xcode, quit Xcode, and signed back in. Confirmed that I have only one Apple ID and only one team. Environment Xcode: 27.2 macOS: 27.2.1 Golden Gate Questions Is "Admin" simply how Xcode labels the Account Holder on a single-member team, or does it mean my role is really Admin? What does Xcode check before it allows a Developer ID Application certificate? Could it be missing cloud-managed Developer ID certificate access on a new team? Is there anything I can fix myself, or does Apple need to change something on the account? Note: I don't want to do any manual steps after spending a good amount of money for enrollment. I have also opened a Developer Support request. Screenshots are attached. Thank you!

Xcode shows my role as "Admin" on a new team and blocks creating a Developer ID Application certificate

Hi everyone,

I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program a few days ago and received the enrollment-complete email. I enrolled myself, I am the only member, and I should be the Account Holder.

What I see

Xcode > Settings > Accounts shows one Apple ID with one team. The Role is "Admin", not Account Holder or Agent.
The team page in Xcode shows a green check for Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles.
However, on developer.apple.com, I can open Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles, and the site lists me as both Account Holder and Admin.
In Xcode, Manage Certificates > + > Developer ID Application fails. The message says only the Account Holder can create it.

What I already tried

Signed out of my Apple ID in Xcode, quit Xcode, and signed back in.
Confirmed that I have only one Apple ID and only one team.

Environment

Xcode: 27.2
macOS: 27.2.1 Golden Gate

Questions

Is "Admin" simply how Xcode labels the Account Holder on a single-member team, or does it mean my role is really Admin?
What does Xcode check before it allows a Developer ID Application certificate? Could it be missing cloud-managed Developer ID certificate access on a new team?
Is there anything I can fix myself, or does Apple need to change something on the account?

Note: I don't want to do any manual steps after spending a good amount of money for enrollment.

I have also opened a Developer Support request. Screenshots are attached. Thank you!
