Okay so I found the original key it's a .p8 file on my computer. It was signed by an account from someone who has since left our organization. Is there any guidance on what to do? can I use this key? I reallly appreciate your patience with me. I managed to get this app on both the Apple and Google Play stores without a true developer just me a nonprofit employee with grit and perseverence. I've also managed to update this app on my own previously. But something went awry this time.

But I have the certificate signing request still can I just like put it back? Or would you still recommend redoing the distribution certificate

Yes! I see my Apple Distribution Certificate Expires: Friday, October 3, 2025 [quote='828882022, DTS Engineer, /thread/776197?answerId=828882022#828882022'] If you launch Keychain Access and search for Apple Distribution, do you see anything? [/quote]
