Hello there, I have a problem reaching the CloudKit dashboard. Every time I login, the login successes but then I get the error: An error has caused this web page to stop working correctly. This also happens when I click on the Button CloudKit dashboard. Then I can reload the page, but the same errors occurs again and again. Can someone help me with this problem? Thank you very much

I have a strange crash which I have problems understanding. It only happens on a few devices, after a ModelContainer migration, and it doesn't seem to crash on the migration itself. The fetch is done in onAppear, and shouldn't necessarily result in a crash, as it is an optional try: let request = FetchDescriptor<Rifle>() let data = try? modelContext.fetch(request) if let data, !data.isEmpty { rifle = data.first(where: { $0.uuid.uuidString == settings.selectedRifleId }) ?? data.first! } When I get logs from users, there seems to be an error in encoding?

Hi all, has anybody found the trick how to get SwiftData working with SpotLight Search? Setting the attribute "spotlight" in the Model definition seems to do nothing at all, as pointed out by Paul Hudson in his new book as well (https://www.hackingwithswift.com/quick-start/swiftdata/how-to-index-swiftdata-objects-in-spotlight) Thanks a lot!

I'm unable to view Changes or Diff View in the Deploy Schema Changes Dialog due to an Internal Error.

I've been trying to setup a successful migration, but it keeps failing with this error: NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate are not reusable and should have a lifecycle tied to a given instance of NSPersistentStore. I can't find any information about this online. I added breakpoints throughout the code in willMigrate, and it originally failed on this line: try? context.save() I removed that, and it still failed. After I reload the app, it doesn't run the migration again and the app loads successfully. I figured since it crashed, it would keep trying, but I guess not. Here's how my migration is setup. enum MigrationV1ToV2: SchemaMigrationPlan { static var schemas: [any VersionedSchema.Type] { [SchemaV1.self, SchemaV2.self] } static var stages: [MigrationStage] { [stage] } static let stage = MigrationStage.custom( fromVersion: SchemaV1.self, toVersion: SchemaV2.self, willMigrate: { context in // Get cycles let cycles = try? context.fetch(FetchDescriptor<SchemaV1.Cycle>()) if let cycles { for cycle in cycles { // Create new recurring objects based on what's in the cycle for income in cycle.income { let recurring = SchemaV2.Recurring(name: income.name, frequency: income.frequency, kind: .income) recurring.addAmount(.init(date: cycle.startDate, amount: income.amount)) context.insert(recurring) } for expense in cycle.expenses { let recurring = SchemaV2.Recurring(name: expense.name, frequency: expense.frequency, kind: .expense) recurring.addAmount(.init(date: cycle.startDate, amount: expense.amount)) context.insert(recurring) } for savings in cycle.savings { let recurring = SchemaV2.Recurring(name: savings.name, frequency: savings.frequency, kind: .savings) recurring.addAmount(.init(date: cycle.startDate, amount: savings.amount)) context.insert(recurring) } for investment in cycle.investments { let recurring = SchemaV2.Recurring(name: investment.name, frequency: investment.frequency, kind: .investment) recurring.addAmount(.init(date: cycle.startDate, amount: investment.amount)) context.insert(recurring) } } //try? context.save() } else { print("The cycles were not able to be fetched.") } }, didMigrate: { context in // Get new recurring objects let newRecurring = try? context.fetch(FetchDescriptor<SchemaV2.Recurring>()) if let newRecurring { for recurring in newRecurring { // Get all recurring with the same name and kind let sameName = newRecurring.filter({ $0.name == recurring.name && $0.kind == recurring.kind }) // Add amount history to recurring object, and then remove matching for match in sameName { recurring.amountHistory.append(contentsOf: match.amountHistory) context.delete(match) } } //try? context.save() } else { print("The new recurring objects could not be fetched.") } } ) } Here's is my modelContainer in the app file. There is a fatal error occurring here that's crashing the app. var sharedModelContainer: ModelContainer = { let schema = Schema(versionedSchema: SchemaV2.self) let modelConfiguration = ModelConfiguration(schema: schema, isStoredInMemoryOnly: false) do { return try ModelContainer( for: schema, migrationPlan: MigrationV1ToV2.self, configurations: [modelConfiguration] ) } catch { fatalError("Could not create ModelContainer: \(error)") } }() Does anyone have any suggestions for this? EDIT: I found this error in the console that may be relevant.

Hi everyone In the last 24 hours, I’ve been running into some issues with the CloudKit console. Most of the time, I‘ll get an error stating an error has caused this web page to stop working correctly. Reloading doesn’t fix the issue, nor does using different browsers: Today I’ve got another error, something along the lines of the Console not being able to fetch the teams I’m assigned to and an XHF error pop-up. Has anyone encountered the same issues? After trying multiple times, I’m able to reach my database but it’s a bit frustrating as it’s very unreliable this way. Thanks for your feedback! Dave

Hi, I'm struggling with SwiftData and the components for migration and could really use some guidance. My specific questions are Is it possible to go from an unversioned schema to a versioned schema? Do all @Model classes need to be converted? Is there one VersionedSchema for the entire app that handles all models or one VersionedSchema per model? What is the relationship, if any, between the models given to ModelContainer in a [Schema] and the models in the VersionedSchema in a [any PersistentModel.Type] I have an app in the AppStore. I use SwiftData and have four @Models defined. I was not aware of VersionedSchema when I started, so they are unversioned. I want to update the model and am trying to convert to a VersionedSchema. I've tried various things and can't even get into the migration plan yet. All posts and tutorials that I've come across only deal with one Model, and create a VersionedSchema for that model. I've tried to switch the one Model I want to update, as well as switching them all. Of course I get different errors depending on what configuration I try. It seems like I should have one VersionedSchema for the app since there is the static var models: [any PersistentModel.Type] property. Yet the tutorials I've seen create a TypeNameSchemaV1 to go with the @Model TypeName. Which is correct? An AppNameSchemaV1 which defines four models, or four TypeNameSchemaV1? Any help will be much appreciated

Here is what I thought I want to give each user a unique container, when the user login or register, the user could isolate their data in specific container. I shared the container in a singleton actor, I found it's possible to update the container in that actor. But I think it won't affect the modelContext which is in the Environment. Does SwiftData allow me or recommend to do that?

I have an image field on a Core Data entity with "Allows External Storage" enabled. When I delete a record, the external binary data file remains on disk. How can I ensure that all externally stored data is deleted along with the record?

For the past several days every time I log in to to the Cloudkit dashboard I get Error looking up Developer Teams, Please sign out and try again. No amount of singing out and back in changes anything.

I am using SwiftData to model my data. For that i created a model called OrganizationData that contains various relationships to other entities. My data set is quite large and i am having a big performance issue when fetching all OrganizationData entities. I started debugging and looking at the sql debug log i noticed that when fetching my entities i run into faults for all relationships even when not accessing them. Fetching my entities: let fetchDescriptor = FetchDescriptor<OrganizationData>() let context = MapperContext(dataManager: self) let organizations = (try modelContainer.mainContext.fetch(fetchDescriptor)) Doing this fetch, also fetches all relationships. Each in a single query, for every OrganizationData entity.

Got 0 rows The relationships are all defined the same @Relationship(deleteRule: .cascade, inverse: \EntityData1.organization) var relationship1: [EntityData1] = [] Am i missing something? As far as i understood relationships are lazy and should only be faulted when accessing the property. But doing the fetch as described above already causes a query to happen, making the fetch take very long when using a large data set.

Hi Folks, starting with iOS18 and using Xcode16, accessing fetchedProperties results in an error. I identified the issue to occur as soon as the initialization of a fetched property with external binary data storage starts. Console output during debugging: *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'This expression has evaluation disabled' *** First throw call stack: [...] libc++abi: terminating due to uncaught exception of type NSException Console output when trying to "print" the item via the contact menu of the debugger: Printing description of variable: error: error: Execution was interrupted, reason: internal ObjC exception breakpoint(-6).. The process has been returned to the state before expression evaluation. Message from debugger: killed The identical code works with iOS before iOS 18 (same for iPadOS 18). Does anyone observed a similar issue and figured out a solution already? Cheers, folox

I'm using Swift Data for an app that requires iOS 18. All of my models conform to a protocol that guarantees they have a 'serverID' String variable. I wrote a function that would allow me to pass in a serverID String and have it fetch the model object that matched. Because I am lazy and don't like writing the same functions over and over, I used a Self reference so that all of my conforming models get this static function. Imagine my model is called "WhatsNew". Here's some code defining the protocol and the fetching function. protocol RemotelyFetchable: PersistentModel { var serverID: String { get } } extension WhatsNew: RemotelyFetchable {} extension RemotelyFetchable { static func fetchOne(withServerID identifier: String, inContext modelContext: ModelContext) -> Self? { var fetchDescriptor = FetchDescriptor<Self>() fetchDescriptor.predicate = #Predicate<Self> { $0.serverID == identifier } do { let allModels = try modelContext.fetch(fetchDescriptor) return allModels.first } catch { return nil } } } Worked great! Or so I thought... I built this and happily ran a debug build in the Simulator and on devices for months while developing the initial version but when I went to go do a release build for TestFlight, that build reliably crashed on every device with a message like this: SwiftData/DataUtilities.swift:65: Fatal error: Couldn't find \WhatsNew. on WhatsNew with fields [SwiftData.Schema.PropertyMetadata(name: "serverID", keypath: \WhatsNew., defaultValue: nil, metadata: Optional(Attribute - name: , options: [unique], valueType: Any, defaultValue: nil, hashModifier: nil)), SwiftData.Schema.PropertyMetadata(name: "title", keypath: \WhatsNew., defaultValue: nil, metadata: nil), SwiftData.Schema.PropertyMetadata(name: "bulletPoints", keypath: \WhatsNew.)>, defaultValue: nil, metadata: nil), SwiftData.Schema.PropertyMetadata(name: "dateDescription", keypath: \WhatsNew., defaultValue: nil, metadata: nil), SwiftData.Schema.PropertyMetadata(name: "readAt", keypath: \WhatsNew.)>, defaultValue: nil, metadata: nil)] It seems (cannot confirm) that something in the release build optimization process is stripping out some metadata / something about these models that makes this predicate crash. Tested on iOS 18.0 and 18.1 beta. How can I resolve this? I have two dozen types that conform to this protocol. I could manually specialize this function for every type myself but... ugh.

Hello, I am trying to access my cloudkit database from the icloud developer dashboard but I am getting the following error: Error looking up Developer Teams XHR request failure Please sign out and try again. I tried signing out but the error persists, Thanks

Hi, I work on a financial app in Brazil and since Beta 1 we're getting several crashes. We already opened a code level support and a few feedback issues, but haven't got any updates on that yet. We were able to resolve some crashes changing some of our implementation but we aren't able to understand what might be happening with this last one. This is the log we got on console: erro 11:55:41.805875-0300 MyApp CoreData: error: Failed to load NSManagedObjectModel with URL 'file:///private/var/containers/Bundle/Application/0B9F47D9-9B83-4CFF-8202-3718097C92AE/MyApp.app/ServerDrivenModel.momd/' We double checked and the momd is inside the bundle. The same app works on any other iOS version and if we build using Xcode directly (without archiving and installing on an iOS26 device) it works as expected. Have anyone else faced a similar error? Any tips or advice on how we can try to solve that?

I can't access the CloudKit Console. It started to be unresponsive for hours today. It looks like sync'ing is still working, but I would like to reset the environment during my development! Is it possible to control CloudKit Console using the command line?

Hello, From the documentation linked below, the limitations for Background Assets are the following: Size Limit: 200 GB Asset Pack Count: 100 I'm expecting I will need ~175 Asset Packs and around 500GB of storage. I understand Background Assets is a new, but is there a process or a potential that these limits will be increased in the future? Or is there a way to request an increase? I've tried contacting Apple Support as this is more of an Admin issue, however they've directed me here. Case ID 102725356578 https://developer.apple.com/help/app-store-connect/reference/apple-hosted-asset-pack-size-limits Thank you, Tanner

I have an app that from day 1 has used Swiftdata and successfully sync'd across devices with Cloudkit. I have added models to the data in the past and deployed the schema and it continued to sync across devices. Sometime I think in June.2025 I added a new model and built out the UI to display and manage it. I pushed a version to Test Flight (twice over a matter of 2 versions and a couple of weeks) and created objects in the new model in Test Flight versions of the app which should push the info to Cloudkit to update the schema. When I go to deploy the schema though there are no changes. I confirmed in the app that Cloudkit is selected and it's point to the correct container. And when I look in Cloudkit the new model isn't listed as an indes. I've pushed deploy schema changes anyway (more than once) and now the app isn't sync-ing across devices at all (even the pre-existing models aren't sync-ing across devices). I even submitted the first updated version to the app store and it was approved and released. I created objects in the new model in production which I know doesn't create the indexes in the development environment. But this new model functions literally everywhere except Cloudkit and I don't know what else to do to trigger an update.

I have a Package.swift file that builds and runs from Xcode 15.2 without issue but fails to compile when built from the command line ("swift build"). The swift version is 6.0.3. I'm at wits end trying to diagnose this and would welcome any thoughts. The error in question is error: external macro implementation type 'SwiftDataMacros.PersistentModelMacro' could not be found for macro 'Model()'; plugin for module 'SwiftDataMacros' not found The code associated with the module is very vanilla. import Foundation import SwiftData @Model public final class MyObject { @Attribute(.unique) public var id:Int64 public var vertexID:Int64 public var updatedAt:Date public var codeUSRA:Int32 init(id:Int64, vertexID:Int64, updatedAt:Date, codeUSRA:Int32) { self.id = id self.vertexID = vertexID self.updatedAt = updatedAt self.codeUSRA = codeUSRA } public static func create(id:Int64, vertexID:Int64, updatedAt:Date, codeUSRA:Int32) -> MyObject { MyObject(id: id, vertexID: vertexID, updatedAt: updatedAt, codeUSRA: codeUSRA) } } Thank you.
