Reply to Invalid code signing entitlements with app group on macOS
I've been stuck on this for two days now. Specifically, I have two Mac (non-Catalyst) targets bundled with my Mac Catalyst app and these fail on submission with the same error everyone else is seeing. First, I tried generating manual provisioning profiles with the application-group entitlement added. Archive works but submitting to ASC fails with the same error as before. Second, I installed the Xcode 16.3 beta, toggled "Automatically manage signing" off and on, and then deleted and re-added the App Group capability. This finally updated my Xcode Managed Profiles to include the application-group entitlement. However, submitting to ASC still fails (I tried archiving and submitting with both Xcode 16.3 and 16.2). I'm not sure what else to try at this point.

@DTS Engineer Still no luck for me. I have an unusual arrangement: my app is a Mac Catalyst app that embeds a non-Catalyst Mac app as a LoginItem. All my Mac targets (Catalyst and non-Catalyst) have REGISTER_APP_GROUPS = YES and all have the App Group entitlement. When I inspect the archived build as you suggest, every provisioning profile appears to have application-groups set correctly. But I still get the same error from ASC. I filed a Feedback and attached an archive build, if you or the ASC team could please take a look: FB16664827

Success! I finally noticed a difference between the instructions in the latest Xcode beta release notes and Quinn's instructions: … remove related profiles from ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/UserData/Provisioning Profiles and ~/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles I had cleaned out that first directory but not the second. Deleting the relevant profiles in both directories seems to have fixed everything.
