Inquiry regarding Local Push Connectivity Entitlement

Dear Sir/Madam,

Thank you for your support.

I have reviewed the documentation for Local Push Connectivity (see URL below) and, following the instruction in the "Important" section to "Request this entitlement from the Entitlement Request Page," I completed the application process for this Entitlement on March 11, 2026.

[Local push connectivity]

Subsequently, on March 13, 2026, I received the following reply from Apple:

Hi,

Thank you for your interest in the Local Push Connectivity entitlement. Your entitlement request has been approved for:

Team ID: NWKYYYYYYY

Technical documentation on this API is available here:

-(Omission) -

Best Regards, Apple Developer Relations

My understanding is that upon approval of this application, an "Entitlements" field should be added to the input fields for creating provisioning profiles. However, as of today(March 18, 2026), it has not yet been added. Will the Entitlements field be added if I simply wait?

My account (Apple ID), which submitted the application, belongs to three Team IDs. For convenience, I will refer to them as Team ID SV3XXXXXXX, Team ID NWKYYYYYYY, and Team ID WEJZZZZZZZ. The application status for Entitlements for each Team ID is as follows:

Team ID SV3XXXXXXX

  • Entitlements: Present.
  • Applied for Entitlements on February 6, 2021. (Received "Re: Requesting Network Extension App Push Entitlement" email on February 6, 2021)

Team ID NWKYYYYYYY

  • Entitlements: Not present.
  • Applied for Entitlements on March 13, 2026. (Received "Re: Requesting Network Extension App Push Entitlement" email on March 13, 2026)

Team ID WEJZZZZZZZ

  • Entitlements: Present.
  • No record (email) of applying for Entitlements.

Because of this, I am concerned that the Entitlements applied for Team ID NWKYYYYYYY may have been mistakenly granted to Team ID WEJZZZZZZZ, and I am inquiring about this.

Will the Entitlements field for Team ID NWKYYYYYYY be added if I simply wait?

Thank you in advance.

Our records show that Team ID NWKYYYYYYY already has access to the entitlements need to use NEAppPushProvider. In Xcode’s Signing & Capabilities editor, it should show up as Network Extension (additional values). Likewise in the App ID editor on the Developer website.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I apologize. There was an error in my previous question, and I'm correcting it. The correct information is as follows:

Team ID SV3XXXXXXX

  • Entitlements: Present.
  • Approved for Entitlements on April 28, 2021. (Received "Re: Requesting Network Extension App Push Entitlement" email on April 28, 2021)

Team ID NWKYYYYYYY

  • Entitlements: Not present.
  • Approved for Entitlements on March 13, 2026. (Received "Re: Requesting Network Extension App Push Entitlement" email on March 13, 2026)

Team ID WEJZZZZZZZ

  • Entitlements: Present.
  • Approved for Entitlements on February 6, 2021. (Received "Re: Requesting Network Extension App Push Entitlement" email on February 6, 2021)

In my initial question, I stated that for WEJZZZZZZZ, there was "No record (email) of applying for Entitlements," but this was incorrect, as it turns out approval was granted. I apologize for the correction.

However, my question remains the same: Will the Entitlements field for Team ID NWKYYYYYYY be added if I simply wait? The permissions haven't become active even though approval was completed 5 days ago. Is it just taking some time for them to become active?

Thank you for your assistance.
