Publishing an IOS app (capacitor)

[jewells77]

If you are looking for help, please confirm the following...

• I confirm I have searched the Docs, Codemagic Sample Projects, and GitHub Discussions.
• I confirm the software versions on my local computer match the ones in CI environment (e.g. Xcode version, Gradle version). See here
• I confirm I am able to do a fresh clone of the repository and build the project on my local computer.

Which mobile framework are you using?

Ionic/Cordova

Steps to reproduce

This is my codemagic.yaml, and I'm facing an issue with the step "- name: Build ipa for distribution".

Hi @jewells77,

Error says

error: No signing certificate "iOS Distribution" found: No "iOS Distribution" signing certificate matching team ID "9P2HJFFNT5" with a private key was found. (in target 'App' from project 'App')

The profile you uploaded does not have the Distribution certificate.
Please take a look at the image I've included below. You need to choose the certificate which you uploaded In your Teams > Settings> Code signing identities > Profiles.

Hi @jewells77, Did you get a chance to debug the issue via ssh?

[jewells77]

Okay, I have fixed it, but it took a long time in the last step "Cleaning up" and then failed to "Publishing failed :| Failed to publish App.ipa to App Store Connect." Build id: 6502926c52f3bee3cbcce0a3

Hi @jewells77, as the error message under publishing section suggests, A required agreement is missing or has expired. please accept app store agreements here and re-run the build

Hi @jewells77, While I’m closing our discussion for now, if you have any other questions or suggestions, feel free to reply back or start a new discussion anytime. Have a nice day!

I was fixing some information in the app store and code. I will get back to you if there are any blockers. Thank you very much.
