This simple test fails in my project. Similar code in my application also crashes. How do I debug the problem? What project settings are required. I have added SwiftData as a framework to test (and application) targets? Thanks, The problem is with: modelContext.insert(item) Thread 1: EXC_BAD_INSTRUCTION (code=EXC_I386_INVOP, subcode=0x0) import XCTest import SwiftData @Model class FakeModel { var name: String init(name: String) { self.name = name } } @MainActor final class FakeModelTests: XCTestCase { var modelContext: ModelContext! override func setUp() { super.setUp() do { let container = try ModelContainer(for: FakeModel.self, configurations: ModelConfiguration(isStoredInMemoryOnly: true)) modelContext = container.mainContext } catch { XCTFail("Failed to create ModelContainer: \(error)") modelContext = nil } } func testSaveFetchDeleteFakeItem() { guard let modelContext = modelContext else { XCTFail("ModelContext must be initialized") return } let item = FakeModel(name: "Test") modelContext.insert(item) let fetchDescriptor = FetchDescriptor<FakeModel>() let items = try! modelContext.fetch(fetchDescriptor) XCTAssertEqual(items.count, 1) XCTAssertEqual(items.first?.name, "Test") modelContext.delete(item) let itemsAfterDelete = try! modelContext.fetch(fetchDescriptor) XCTAssertEqual(itemsAfterDelete.count, 0) } }

I have a UIKit app where I've adopted SwiftData and I'm struggling with a crash coming in from some of my users. I'm not able to reproduce it myself and as it only happens to a small fraction of my user base, it seems like a race condition of some sort. This is the assertion message: SwiftData/DefaultStore.swift:453: Fatal error: API Contract Violation: Editors must register their identifiers before invoking operations on this store SwiftData.DefaultStore: 00CF060A-291A-4E79-BEC3-E6A6B20F345E did not. (ID is unique per crash) This is the ModelActor that crashes: @available(iOS 17, *) @ModelActor actor ConsumptionDatabaseStorage: ConsumptionSessionStorage { struct Error: LocalizedError { var errorDescription: String? } private let sortDescriptor = [SortDescriptor(\SDConsumptionSession.startTimeUtc, order: .reverse)] static func createStorage(userId: String) throws -> ConsumptionDatabaseStorage { guard let appGroupContainer = FileManager.default.containerURL(forSecurityApplicationGroupIdentifier: UserDefaults.defaultAppGroupIdentifier) else { throw Error(errorDescription: "Invalid app group container ID") } func createModelContainer(databaseUrl: URL) throws -> ModelContainer { return try ModelContainer(for: SDConsumptionSession.self, SDPriceSegment.self, configurations: ModelConfiguration(url: databaseUrl)) } let databaseUrl = appGroupContainer.appendingPathComponent("\(userId).sqlite") do { return self.init(modelContainer: try createModelContainer(databaseUrl: databaseUrl)) } catch { // Creating the model storage failed.

There doesn't seem to be any common trait for the crashes. They occur across iOS versions and device types. Any idea what might cause this?

My Code: let op = CKModifyRecordsOperation(recordIDsToDelete:recordIDsToDelete) op.modifyRecordsCompletionBlock = { _, deleteRecordIDs, error in if error == nil { print("successful delete deleteRecordIDS = \(deleteRecordIDs)") } else { print("delete error = \(error?.localizedDescription)") } } op.database = CKContainer.default().privateCloudDatabase op.qualityOfService = .userInitiated CKContainer.default().privateCloudDatabase.add(op) My problem is that CKRecord are not deleted once I reinstall the app: when I reinstall the app and try to delete a CloudKit record, the method is executed successfully (error is nil) but the records are still in CloudKit Dashboards.

I have some code which handles doing some computation on a background thread before updating Core Data NSManagedObjects by using the NSManagedObjectContext.perform functions. This code is covered in Sendable warnings in Xcode 26 (beta 6) because my NSManagedObject subclasses (autogenerated) are non-Sendable and NSManagedObjectContext.perform function takes a Sendable closure. But I can't really figure out what I should be doing. I realize this pattern is non-ideal for Swift concurrency, but it's what Core Data demands AFAIK. How do I deal with this? let moc = object.managedObjectContext! try await moc.perform { object.completed = true // Capture of 'object' with non-Sendable type 'MySpecialObject' in a '@Sendable' closure try moc.save() } Thanks in advance for your help!

"No records found" If I create a new record on the console, I can copy the record name. I can then query for recordName and get that individual record back. BUT no other queries work. I cannot query all records. I cannot query by individual property. Just returns "no records found" Seems like my indexes got messed up. Is there a way to reset indexes on prod? This is on a coredata.cloudkit managed zone.

Since publishing new record types to my CloudKit schema in production, a previously unchanged record type has stopped indexing new records. While records of this type are successfully saved without errors, they are not returned in query results—they can only be accessed directly via their recordName. This issue occurs exclusively in the Production environment, both in the CloudKit Console and our iOS app. The problem began on July 21, 2025, and continues to persist. The issue affects only new records of this specific record type; all other types are indexing and querying as expected. The affected record's fields are properly configured with the appropriate index types (e.g., QUERYABLE) and have been not been modified prior to publishing the schema. With this, are there any steps I should take to restore indexing functionality for this record type in Production? There have been new records inserted, and I would prefer to not have to reset the production database, if possible.

I've been seeing something that I find odd when using two SwiftData models where if I have one model (book, in this case) that has an optional array of another model (page, in this case), the optional array starts out as set to nil, but after about 20 seconds it updates to being an empty array. I see it in Previews and after building. Is this expected behavior? Should I just assume that if there is an optional array in my model it will eventually be initialized to an empty array? Code is below. import SwiftUI import SwiftData @Model final class Book { var title: String = "New Book" @Relationship var pages: [Page]? = nil init(title: String) { self.title = title } } @Model final class Page { var content: String = "Page Content" var book: Book? = nil init() { } } struct ContentView: View { @Environment(\.modelContext) private var modelContext @Query private var books: [Book] var body: some View { NavigationSplitView { List { ForEach(books) { book in NavigationLink { Text("\(book.title)") Text(book.pages?.debugDescription ?? "pages is nil") } label: { Text("\(book.title)") Spacer() Text("\(book.pages?.count.description ?? "pages is nil" )") } } } HStack { Button("Clear Data") { clearData() } Button("Add Book") { addBook() } } .navigationSplitViewColumnWidth(min: 180, ideal: 200) } detail: { Text("Select an item") } } private func clearData() { for book in books { modelContext.delete(book) } try? modelContext.save() } private func addBook() { let newBook = Book(title: "A New Book") modelContext.insert(newBook) } } @main struct BookPageApp: App { var sharedModelContainer: ModelContainer = { let schema = Schema([Book.self, Page.self]) let modelConfiguration = ModelConfiguration(schema: schema, isStoredInMemoryOnly: false) do { return try ModelContainer(for: schema, configurations: [modelConfiguration]) } catch { fatalError("Could not create ModelContainer: \(error)") } }() var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } .modelContainer(sharedModelContainer) } } #Preview { ContentView() .modelContainer(for: Book.self, inMemory: true) }

I have a ModelActor that creates a hierarchy of models and returns a PersistentIdentifier for the root. I'd like to do that in a transaction, but I don't know of a good method of getting that identifier if the models are created in a transaction. For instance, an overly simple example: func createItem(timestamp: Date) throws -> PersistentIdentifier { try modelContext.transaction { let item = Item(timestamp: timestamp) modelContext.insert(item) } // how to return item.persistentModelID? } I can't return the item.persistentModelID from the transaction closure and even if I could, it will be a temporary ID until after the transaction is executed. I can't create the Item outside the transaction and just have the transaction do an insert because swift will raise a data race error if you then try to return item.persistentModelID. Is there any way to do this besides a modelContext.fetch* with separate unique identifiers?

I have an app with fairly typical requirements - I need to insert some data (in my case from the network but could be anything) and I want to do it in the background to keep the UI responsive. I'm using SwiftData. I've created a ModelActor that does the importing and using the debugger I can confirm that the data is indeed being inserted. On the UI side, I'm using @Query and a SwiftUI List to display the data but what I am seeing is that @Query is not updating as the data is being inserted. I have to quit and re-launch the app in order for the data to appear, almost like the context running the UI isn't communicating with the context in the ModelActor. I've included a barebones sample project. To reproduce the issue, tap the 'Background Insert' button. You'll see logs that show items being inserted but the UI is not showing any data. I've tested on the just released iOS 18b3 seed (22A5307f). The sample project is here: https://hanchor.s3.amazonaws.com/misc/SwiftDataBackgroundV2.zip

Hello, I'm trying to work on an iPadOS and macOS app that will rely on the document-based system to create some kind of orientation task to follow. Let say task1.myfile will be a check point regulation from NYC to SF and task2.myfile will be a visit as many key location as you can in SF. The file represent the specific landmark location and rules of the game. And once open, I will be able to read KML/GPS file to evaluate their score based with the current task. But opened GPS files does not have to be stored in the task file itself, it stay alongside. I wanted to use that scenario to experiment with SwiftData (I'm a long time CoreData user, I even wrote my own WebDAV based persistent store back in the day), and so, mix both on file and in memory persistent store, with distribution based on object class. With CoreData it would have been possible, but I do not see how to achieve that with SwiftData and DocumentGroup integration. Any idea how to do that?

Hello everyone, I used SwiftData for v1 of an app and am now trying to make changes to the schema for v2. I created the v2 schema that adds a property to one of the models. I need to populate the new property so I made a custom migration using didMigrate. However that doesn't seem to matter what I do in the migration because creating the ModelContainer throws an error before didMigrate ever gets called. The error is: Unresolved error loading container Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=134060 "A Core Data error occurred." UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=Instances of NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate are not reusable and should have a lifecycle tied to a given instance of NSPersistentStore.} Higher up in the Xcode output I see things like this (in order): Request 'D25A8CB8-7341-4FA8-B2F8-3DE2D35B5273' was cancelled because the store was removed from the coordinator. BUG IN CLIENT OF CLOUDKIT: Registering a handler for a CKScheduler activity identifier that has already been registered CloudKit setup failed because it couldn't register a handler for the export activity. There is another instance of this persistent store actively syncing with CloudKit in this process. How can I know from this output what I am doing incorrectly? Any idea what I should take a look at or try to do differently? This is a simple app with three models and nothing fancy. The only change in the schema is to add a property. The new property is declared as optional and has an inverse that is also declared as optional. Thanks for any insight!

I am using SwiftData for storage and have a view that uses the @Query property wrapper with a sort descriptor that points to a relationship on a model. In a release build on device running iOS 18.3, the app crashes. This is the line that crashes: @Query(sort: \Item.info.endDate, order: .reverse) private var items: [Item] Item has a relationship to ItemInfo, which is where the endDate property is defined. This code works in debug and on a simulator. In the project referenced here: https://github.com/lepolt/swiftdata-crash, change the scheme build configuration to “Release” and run on device. The app will crash. Using Xcode Version 16.2 (16C5032a) iPhone 12, iOS 18.3 (22D60)

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

LSUB always returns all the subscribed folders. For example lsub "" "test/*" returns a list of all the folders and not just subscribed folders that are subfolders of test. I.e, it returns the same folder list as lsub "" "*". For more details please see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1817707#c15

I'm using NSPersistentCloudKitContainer with Core Data and I receive errors because my iCloud space is full.

Hey there, Can we bundle our app with our own version of SQLite with extensions that we want. From what I've seen, we aren't allowed to add extensions to the built in IOS SQLite, so would this be the only way to use extensions. I ask this because I want to use the spell fix extension. I couldn't find a lot of people talking about adding SQLite extensions. Thank you!

What have people's experience with converting locally stored app data to a more browser based accessible format? Firebase seems expensive, Subabase a bit more challenging, and CloudKit too restrictive.

I'm working on a macOS app with a Safari web extension. I'm trying to share a SwiftData model between devices using CloudKit synchronization. I am able to get synchronization in the main app on the same device, CloudKit sync works correctly — changes appear in the CloudKit Dashboard under com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.zone. However, in the Safari App Extension, data is saved locally and persists across launches, but never syncs to CloudKit. I have followed the recommended practices for configuring the App Group and entitlements, but the issue persists. Questions: Is there an official limitation preventing Safari App Extensions from connecting to the CloudKit daemon (cloudd)? If not, what entitlements or configuration changes are required for a Safari App Extension to successfully sync with CloudKit? Is the xpc_error=159 from bootstrap_look_up() a known sandbox restriction for this extension type? Any guidance from Apple engineers or others who have successfully used CloudKit from a Safari App Extension would be appreciated. What I’ve confirmed: The extension’s .entitlements includes: com.apple.security.app-sandbox com.apple.developer.icloud-services CloudKit com.apple.developer.icloud-container-identifiers iCloud.dev.example.myapp Same iCloud container ID for both app and extension CloudKit container exists and is initialized in CloudKit Console Running in :Sandbox environment during development Database name in SwiftData matches container identifier (without the iCloud. prefix) The extension’s codesign output shows correct entitlements App Group is configured (although in this case, extension and app use separate stores intentionally) Observed behavior in Console.app logs: CloudKit sync engine initializes in the extension XPC activities are registered for import/export: _xpc_activity_register: com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.activity.export. xpc_activity_set_criteria: ... import. Then a bootstrap lookup fails: failed to do a bootstrap look-up: xpc_error=[159: Unknown error: 159] CloudKit daemon connection error: CKErrorDomain Code=6 "Error connecting to CloudKit daemon" NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 There is no “Will attempt to upload transactions” or “Upload succeeded” logs are ever seen.
