FAQPage Schema
How do I automate archiving and exporting iOS apps for App Store submission?

The asc and xcodebuild workflow handles building, archiving, and exporting iOS or macOS apps to prepare IPA or PKG files for App Store Connect uploads. It manages versioning and produces deterministic build outputs.

Can I manage version and build numbers for Xcode projects using xcodebuild?

Yes, you can manage version and build numbers using the asc xcode version command within the build and archive workflow. This ensures proper versioning for iOS and macOS apps before uploading to App Store Connect.

What is the best way to set up a CI pipeline for iOS and macOS release workflows?

The best way to set up CI pipelines for iOS and macOS releases is automating xcodebuild archive and export commands to generate deterministic build outputs. This approach handles multi-target projects and prepares uploads for App Store Connect.

Does this build workflow support both IPA and PKG exporting for App Store Connect?

Yes, the workflow supports exporting both IPA files for iOS apps and PKG files for macOS apps. These exported products are then prepared for direct upload to App Store Connect using the asc tool.

Why do I need deterministic build outputs for multi-target Xcode projects?

Deterministic build outputs are needed for multi-target Xcode projects to ensure consistent archiving and reliable release workflows. Automating xcodebuild and asc guarantees reproducible IPA or PKG exports for App Store Connect uploads.
