Program Roles and App Store Connect Roles

When you enroll in the Apple Developer Program, Apple Developer Enterprise Program, or iOS Developer University Program, you automatically become the Team Agent for your account. If you’re enrolled as an organization, you have the option of adding additional developers to your team.

If you’re submitting your apps for review, you’ll also need to set up a team in App Store Connect. You can add additional people to your App Store Connect team whether you are enrolled as an individual or an organization.

About Roles

Apple Developer Program team roles determine access to membership benefits related to app development and testing in your account and Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles. App Store Connect roles determine access to areas of App Store Connect related to submitting apps and managing apps that are available on the App Store and Mac App Store. App Store Connect roles can also be assigned to colleagues who are not on your program team.

App Store Connect Roles

App Store Connect roles determine access to areas of App Store Connect related to submitting apps and managing apps that are available on the App Store. The person who completes enrollment (the Team Agent on your developer account) is automatically assigned the Legal role in App Store Connect and is responsible for entering into agreements with Apple on App Store Connect, including app transfer agreements. The Team Agent can also add additional App Store Connect users and assign roles to their App Store Connect team.
