Frequently asked questions
Details that are easy to miss
Can I upload an IPA without an Apple Developer account?
No. You need an authorized Apple Developer account, an App Store Connect app record, a matching Bundle ID and distribution signing materials before uploading.
How are a P12 file, provisioning profile and IPA related?
A P12 file commonly contains the signing certificate and private key. A provisioning profile binds the App ID, certificate and distribution purpose. The IPA is the built and signed application package, so these materials must match.
What should I check when an uploaded build stays processing?
Check whether the build number was already used, whether the version belongs to the current app and whether the IPA is correctly signed. Then review the App Store Connect status and upload logs.
Does this tutorial page require an API or login?
No. The directory and explanations are served as static HTML and do not require an API request or a login to read.
