I have the following struct doing some simple tasks, running a network request and then saving items to Core Data.
Per Xcode 26's new default settings (onisolated(nonsending) & defaultIsolation set to MainActor), the struct and its functions run on the main actor, which works fine and I can even safely omit the context.perform call because of it, which is great.
struct DataHandler {
func importGames(withIDs ids: [Int]) async throws {
...
let context = PersistenceController.shared.container.viewContext
for game in games {
let newGame = GYGame(context: context)
newGame.id = UUID()
}
try context.save()
}
}
Now, I want to run this in a background thread to increase performance and responsiveness. So I followed this session (https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2025/270) and believe the solution is to mark the struct as nonisolated and the function itself as @concurrent.
The function now works on a background thread, but I receive a crash: _dispatch_assert_queue_fail. This happens whether I wrap the Core Data calls with context.perform or not. Alongside that I get a few new warnings which I have no idea how to work around.
So, what am I doing wrong here? What's the correct way to solve this simple use case with Swift 6's new concurrency stuff and the default main actor isolation in Xcode 26?
Curiously enough, when setting onisolated(nonsending) to false & defaultIsolation to non isolating, mimicking the previous behavior, the function works without crashing.
nonisolated
struct DataHandler {
@concurrent
func importGames(withIDs ids: [Int]) async throws {
...
let context = await PersistenceController.shared.container.newBackgroundContext()
for game in games {
let newGame = GYGame(context: context)
newGame.id = UUID() // Main actor-isolated property 'id' can not be mutated from a nonisolated context; this is an error in the Swift 6 language mode
}
try context.save()
}

In core-data I have a contact and location entity. I have one-to-many relationship from contact to locations and one-to-one from location to contact. I create contact in a seperate view and save it. Later I create a location, fetch the created contact, and save it while specifying the relationship between location and contact contact and test if it actually did it and it works.
viewContext.perform {
do {
// Set relationship using the generated accessor method
currentContact.addToLocations(location)
try viewContext.save()
print("Saved successfully. Locations count:", currentContact.locations?.count ?? 0)
if let locs = currentContact.locations {
print("📍 Contact has \(locs.count) locations.")
for loc in locs {
print("➡️ Location: \(String(describing: (loc as AnyObject).locationName ?? "Unnamed"))")
}
}
} catch {
print("Failed to save location: \(error.localizedDescription)")
}
}
In my NSManagedObject class properties I have this : for Contact:
@NSManaged public var locations: NSSet?
for Location:
@NSManaged public var contact: Contact?
in my persistenceController I have:
for desc in [publicStore, privateStore] {
desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey:
NSPersistentStoreRemoteChangeNotificationPostOptionKey)
desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: NSPersistentHistoryTrackingKey)
desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: NSMigratePersistentStoresAutomaticallyOption)
desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: NSInferMappingModelAutomaticallyOption)
desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: "CKSyncCoreDataDebug") // Optional: Debug sync
// Add these critical options for relationship sync
desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: "NSPersistentStoreCloudKitEnforceRecordExistsKey")
desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: "NSPersistentStoreCloudKitMaintainReferentialIntegrityKey")
// Add this specific option to force schema update
desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: "NSPersistentStoreRemoteStoreUseCloudKitSchemaKey")
}
When synchronization happens on CloudKit side, it creates CKRecords: CD_Contact and CD_Location. However for CD_Location it creates the relationship CD_contact as a string and references the CD_Contact. This I thought should have come as REFERENCE On the CD_Contact there is no CD_locations field at all. I do see the relationships being printed on coredata side but it does not come as REFERENCE on cloudkit. Spent over a day on this. Is this normal, what am I doing wrong here? Can someone advise?
Hi! I use Tips with CloudKit and it works very well, however when a user want to remove their data from CloudKit, how to do that?
In CoreData with CloudKit area, NSPersistentCloudKitContainer have purgeObjectsAndRecordsInZone to delete both local managed objects and CloudKit records, however there is no information about the TipKit deletion.
Does anyone know ideas?
The stuff I've found by searching has confused me, so hopefully someone can help simplify it for me?
I have an app (I use it for logging which books I've given away), and I could either add a bunch of things to the app, or I could have another app (possibly a CLI tool) to generate some reports I'd like.
Does anyone have this error and my app can't be searched in the Apple Store
why not working?

Is it ok to have latency about 4 sec? The amount of downloaded data is less than 1 MB. Maybe I need to setup an index for every field requested?
Hello 👋,
I encounter the "This model instance was invalidated because its backing data could no longer be found the store" crash with SwiftData. Which from what I understood means I try to access a model after it has been removed from the store (makes sense).
I made a quick sample to reproduce/better understand because there some case(s) I can't figure it out.
Let's take a concrete example, we have Home model and a Home can have many Room(s).
// Sample code
@MainActor
let foo = Foo() // A single reference
let database = Database(modelContainer: sharedModelContainer) // A single reference
@MainActor
class Foo {
// Properties to explicilty keep reference of model(s) for the purpose of the POC
var _homes = [Home]()
var _rooms = [Room]()
func fetch() async {
let homes = await database.fetch().map {
sharedModelContainer.mainContext.model(for: $0) as! Home
}
print(ObjectIdentifier(homes[0]), homes[0].rooms?.map(\.id)) // This will crash here or not.
}
// Same version of a delete function with subtle changes.
// Depending on the one you use calling delete then fetch will result in a crash or not.
// Keep a reference to only homes == NO CRASH
func deleteV1() async {
self._homes = await database.fetch().map {
sharedModelContainer.mainContext.model(for: $0) as! Home
}
await database.delete()
}
// Keep a reference to only rooms == NO CRASH
func deleteV2() async {
self._rooms = await database.fetch().map {
sharedModelContainer.mainContext.model(for: $0) as! Home
}[0].rooms ?? []
await database.delete()
}
// Keep a reference to homes & rooms == CRASH 💥
func deleteV3() async {
self._homes = await database.fetch().map {
sharedModelContainer.mainContext.model(for: $0) as! Home
}
self._rooms = _homes[0].rooms ?? []
// or even only retain reference to rooms that have NOT been deleted 🤔 like here "id: 2" make it crash
// self._rooms = _homes[0].rooms?.filter { r in r.id == "2" } ?? []
await database.delete()
}
}
Calling deleteV() then fetch() will result in a crash or not depending on the scenario.
I guess I understand deleteV1, deleteV2. In those case an unsaved model is served by the model(for:) API and accessing properties later on will resolve correctly. The doc says: "The identified persistent model, if known to the context; otherwise, an unsaved model with its persistentModelID property set to persistentModelID."
But I'm not sure about deleteV3. It seems the ModelContext is kind of "aware" there is still cyclic reference between my models that are retained in my code so it will serve these instances instead when calling model(for:) API ? I see my home still have 4 rooms (instead of 2). So I then try to access rooms that are deleted and it crash. Why of that ? I mean why not returning home with two room like in deleteV1 ?
Because SwiftData heavily rely on CoreData may be I miss a very simple thing here. If someone read this and have a clue for me I would be extremely graceful.
PS:
If someone wants to run it on his machine here's some helpful code:
// Database
let sharedModelContainer: ModelContainer = {
let schema = Schema([
Home.self,
Room.self,
])
let modelConfiguration = ModelConfiguration(schema: schema, isStoredInMemoryOnly: false)
debugPrint(modelConfiguration.url.absoluteString.replacing("%20", with: "\\ "))
return try! ModelContainer(for: schema, configurations: [modelConfiguration])
}()
extension Database {
static let shared = Database(modelContainer: sharedModelContainer)
}
@ModelActor
actor Database {
func insert() async {
let r1 = Room(id: "1", name: "R1")
let r2 = Room(id: "2", name: "R2")
let r3 = Room(id: "3", name: "R3")
let r4 = Room(id: "4", name: "R4")
let home = Home(id: "1", name: "My Home")
home.rooms = [r1, r2, r3, r4]
modelContext.insert(home)
try! modelContext.save()
}
func fetch() async -> [PersistentIdentifier] {
try! modelContext.fetchIdentifiers(FetchDescriptor<Home>())
}
@MainActor
func delete() async {
let mainContext = sharedModelContainer.mainContext
try! mainContext.delete(
model: Room.self,
where: #Predicate { r in
r.id == "1" || r.id == "4"
}
)
try! mainContext.save()
// 🤔 Calling fetch here seems to solve crash too, force home relationship to be rebuild correctly ?
// let _ = try! sharedModelContainer.mainContext.fetch(FetchDescriptor<Home>())
}
}
// Models
@Model
class Home: Identifiable {
@Attribute(.unique) public var id: String
var name: String
@Relationship(deleteRule: .cascade, inverse: \Room.home)
var rooms: [Room]?
init(id: String, name: String, rooms: [Room]? = nil) {
self.id = id
self.name = name
self.rooms = rooms
}
}
@Model
class Room: Identifiable {
@Attribute(.unique) public var id: String
var name: String
var home: Home?
init(id: String, name: String, home: Home? = nil) {
self.id = id
self.name = name
self.home = home
}
}
I am implementing a custom migration, and facing an issue while implementing a WAL checkpointing.
Here is the code for WAL checkpointing
func forceWALCheckpointingForStore(at storeURL: URL, model: NSManagedObjectModel) throws {
let persistentStoreCoordinator = NSPersistentStoreCoordinator(managedObjectModel: model)
let options = [NSSQLitePragmasOption: ["journal_mode": "DELETE"]]
let store = try persistentStoreCoordinator.addPersistentStore(type: .sqlite, at: storeURL, options: options)
try persistentStoreCoordinator.remove(store)
}
When the coordinator tries to add the store I am getting the following error
fault: Store opened without NSPersistentHistoryTrackingKey but previously had been opened with NSPersistentHistoryTrackingKey - Forcing into Read Only mode store
My questions are
Is it really necessary to force WAL checkpointing before migration? I am expecting NSMigrationManager to handle it internally. I am assuming this because the migrateStore function asks for the sourceType where I am passing StoreType.sqlite
If checkpointing is required, then how do I address the original issue
Note:
Since my app supports macOS 13, I am not able to use the newly introduced Staged migrations.
There is similar question on Stackoverflow that remains unanswered. https://stackoverflow.com/q/69131577/1311902
Hello! I’ve been trying to log in to my iCloud account, but I haven’t been able to access it. A message pops up saying, 'Couldn’t communicate with the server.' Additionally, I can’t update my phone to the latest iOS version. Please, how can I resolve this?

Hi everyone,
I am experiencing an iCloud provisioning problem I cannot resolve, and Developer Support has not been able to help.
My App ID:
com.exaqservices.ArkyvTiles
Symptoms:
1. In Xcode (v16.2), enabling iCloud in Signing & Capabilities repeatedly fails with:
The app ID does not include the iCloud container. Click Try Again.
Clicking Try Again does nothing. The error persists forever.
2. In Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles:
• The iCloud capability is enabled for this App ID.
• The CloudKit container is selected.
• But the portal no longer shows the “iCloud Documents” checkbox, which used to be required for ubiquitous document support.
3. Xcode cannot regenerate provisioning profiles because it claims the App ID is missing the iCloud container — even though the container is attached.
4. Provisioning profiles on the Apple Developer site all appear expired, and new ones do not generate correctly.
5. The App Store Connect interface also does not show an iCloud Services section under App Information → Capabilities as older guides describe.
Expected Behavior:
Since iCloud and the CloudKit container are enabled on the App ID, Xcode should successfully enable:
• com.apple.developer.icloud-services
• com.apple.developer.icloud-container-identifiers
• com.apple.developer.ubiquity-container-identifiers (if needed)
• com.apple.developer.ubiquity-kvstore-identifier
Instead, the entitlements never propagate.
What I suspect:
This seems like an App ID metadata mismatch or a stale backend entry where:
• the CloudKit container is attached but the entitlement isn’t linked,
• the “iCloud Documents” flag is missing due to a UI transition,
• provisioning profiles cannot be regenerated because the App ID is not updating correctly.
What I need help with:
Can someone from Apple engineering confirm:
• Whether my App ID metadata is corrupted,
• If entitlements need to be manually refreshed,
• Or if the “iCloud Documents” toggle has moved or is no longer exposed?
This is blocking development completely — I cannot build, sign, or deploy the app with iCloud.
Thank you!

我正在使用 Core Data 开发一个 SwiftUI 项目。我的数据模型中有一个名为 AppleUser 的实体,具有以下属性:id (UUID)、name (String)、email (String)、password (String) 和 createdAt (Date)。所有属性都是非可选的。
我使用 Xcode 的自动生成创建了相应的 Core Data 类文件(AppleUser+CoreDataClass.swift 和 AppleUser+CoreDataProperties.swift)。我还有一个 PersistenceController,它使用模型名称 JobLinkModel 初始化 NSPersistentContainer。
当我尝试使用以下方法保存新的 AppleUser 对象时:
让用户 = AppleUser(上下文:viewContext)
user.id = UUID()
user.name = “用户 1”
user.email = “...”
user.password = “密码 1”
user.createdAt = Date()【电子邮件格式正确,但已替换为“...”出于隐私原因】
尝试?viewContext.save()
我在控制台中收到以下错误:核心数据保存失败:Foundation._GenericObjCError.nilError, [:]
用户快照: [“id”: ..., “name”: “User1”, “email”: “...”, “password”: “...”, “createdAt”: ...]
所有字段都有有效值,核心数据模型似乎正确。我还尝试过:
• 检查 NSPersistentContainer(name:) 中的模型名称是否与 .xcdatamodeld 文件 (JobLinkModel) 匹配
• 确保正确设置 AppleUser 实体类、模块和 Codegen(类定义、当前产品模块)
• 删除重复或旧的 AppleUser 类文件
• 清理 Xcode 构建文件夹并从模拟器中删除应用程序
• 对上下文使用 @Environment(.managedObjectContext)
尽管如此,在保存新的 AppleUser 对象时,我仍然会收到 _GenericObjCError.nilError。
我想了解:
为什么即使所有字段都不是零且正确分配,核心数据也无法保存?
这可能是由于一些残留的旧类文件引起的,还是我缺少设置中的其他内容?
我应该采取哪些步骤来确保 Core Data 正确识别 AppleUser 实体并允许保存?
任何帮助或指导将不胜感激。
If Cloudkit is enabled, SwiftData @Query operation hangs when the View scenePhase becomes active.
Seems like the more @Query calls you have, the more it hangs.
This has been first documented some time ago, but in typical Apple style, it has not been addressed or even commented on.

I work on an app that saves data to the Documents folder in the users iCloud Drive. This uses the iCloud -> iCloud Documents capability with a standard container.
We've noticed an issue where a user will delete the apps data by doing to Settings > {Name} > iCloud > Storage > App Name > select "delete data from iCloud", and then our app can no longer write to or create the Documents folder.
Once that happens, we get this error:
Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=513 "You don't have permission to save the file "Documents" in the folder "iCloud~your~bundle~identifier"." UserInfo={NSFilePath=/private/var/mobile/Library/Mobile Documents/iCloud~your~bundle~identifier/Documents, NSURL=file:///private/var/mobile/Library/Mobile%20Documents/iCloud~your~bundle~identifier/Documents, NSUnderlyingError=0x1102c7ea0 {Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=13 "Permission denied"}}
This is reproducible using the sample project here https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/synchronizing-documents-in-the-icloud-environment.
Steps to reproduce in that project:
Tap the plus sign in the top right corner to create a new document
Add a document name and tap "Save to Documents"
Go to Settings > {Name} > iCloud > Storage > SimpleiCloudDocument App Name > select "delete data from iCloud"
Reopen the app and repeat steps 1-2
Observe error on MainViewController+Document.swift:59
Deleting and reinstalling the app doesn't seem to help.

I'm working on a macOS app with a Safari web extension. I'm trying to share a SwiftData model between devices using CloudKit synchronization. I am able to get synchronization in the main app on the same device, CloudKit sync works correctly — changes appear in the CloudKit Dashboard under com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.zone.
However, in the Safari App Extension, data is saved locally and persists across launches, but never syncs to CloudKit.
I have followed the recommended practices for configuring the App Group and entitlements, but the issue persists.
Questions:
Is there an official limitation preventing Safari App Extensions from connecting to the CloudKit daemon (cloudd)?
If not, what entitlements or configuration changes are required for a Safari App Extension to successfully sync with CloudKit?
Is the xpc_error=159 from bootstrap_look_up() a known sandbox restriction for this extension type?
Any guidance from Apple engineers or others who have successfully used CloudKit from a Safari App Extension would be appreciated.
What I’ve confirmed:
The extension’s .entitlements includes:
com.apple.security.app-sandbox
com.apple.developer.icloud-services
CloudKit
com.apple.developer.icloud-container-identifiers
iCloud.dev.example.myapp
Same iCloud container ID for both app and extension
CloudKit container exists and is initialized in CloudKit Console
Running in :Sandbox environment during development
Database name in SwiftData matches container identifier (without the iCloud. prefix)
The extension’s codesign output shows correct entitlements
App Group is configured (although in this case, extension and app use separate stores intentionally)
Observed behavior in Console.app logs:
CloudKit sync engine initializes in the extension
XPC activities are registered for import/export:
_xpc_activity_register: com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.activity.export.
xpc_activity_set_criteria: ... import.
Then a bootstrap lookup fails:
failed to do a bootstrap look-up: xpc_error=[159: Unknown error: 159]
CloudKit daemon connection error:
CKErrorDomain Code=6 "Error connecting to CloudKit daemon"
NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099
There is no “Will attempt to upload transactions” or “Upload succeeded” logs are ever seen.
Symptoms
When the extension is run, I see logs like the following in Console.app:
[0x13e215820] failed to do a bootstrap look-up: xpc_error=[159: Unknown error: 159]
CoreData+CloudKit: -[PFCloudKitSetupAssistant _checkAccountStatus:]_block_invoke(342): Fetched account info for store : (null)
Error Domain=CKErrorDomain Code=6 "Error connecting to CloudKit daemon. This could happen for many reasons..."
I am following Apple's instruction to sync SwiftData with CloudKit. While initiating the ModelContainer, right after removing the store from Core Data, the error occurs:
FAULT: NSInternalInconsistencyException: This NSPersistentStoreCoordinator has no persistent stores (unknown). It cannot perform a save operation.; (user info absent)
I've tried removing default.store and its related files/folders before creating the ModelContainer with FileManager but it does not resolve the issue. Isn't it supposed to create a new store when the ModelContainer is initialized? I don't understand why this error occurs. Error disappears when I comment out the #if DEBUG block.

Hi,
I'm building a habit tracking app for iOS and macOS. I want to use up to date technologies, so I'm using SwiftUI and SwiftData.
I want to store user data locally on device and also sync data between device and iCloud server so that the user could use the app conveniently on multiple devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac).
I already tried SwiftData + NSPersistentCloudKitContainer, but I need to control when to sync data, which I can't control with NSPersistentCloudKitContainer. For example, I want to upload data to server right after data is saved locally and download data from server on every app open, on pull-to-refresh etc. I also need to monitor sync progress, so I can update the UI and run code based on the progress. For example, when downloading data from server to device is in progress, show "Loading..." UI, and when downloading finishes, I want to run some app business logic code and update UI.
So I'm considering switching from NSPersistentCloudKitContainer to CKSyncEngine, because it seems that with CKSyncEngine I can control when to upload and download data and also monitor the progress.
My database schema (image below) has relationships - "1 to many" and "many to many" - so it's convenient to use SwiftData (and underlying CoreData).
Development environment: Xcode 16.1, macOS 15.1.1
Run-time configuration: iOS 18.1.1, macOS 15.1.1
My questions:
1-Is it possible to use SwiftData for local data storage and CKSyncEngine to sync this local data storage with iCloud?
2-If yes, is there any example code to implement this?
I've been studying the "CloudKit Samples: CKSyncEngine" demo app (https://github.com/apple/sample-cloudkit-sync-engine), but it uses a very primitive approach to local data storage by saving data to a JSON file on disk.
It would be very helpful to have the same demo app with SwiftData implementation!
3-Also, to make sure I don't run into problems later - is it okay to fire data upload (sendChanges) and download (fetchChanges) manually with CKSyncEngine and do it often? Are there any limits how often these functions can be called to not get "blocked" by the server?
4-If it's not possible to use SwiftData for local data storage and CKSyncEngine to sync this local data storage with iCloud, then what to use for local storage instead of SwiftData to sync it with iCloud using CKSyncEngine? Maybe use SwiftData with the new DataStore protocol instead of the underlying CoreData?
All information highly appreciated!
Thanks,
Martin

DESCRIPTION
I have an App use iCloud to save data.
The App had a CoreData ManagedObject 'Product', 'Product' Object had an attribute name 'count' and it is a Double Type.
I need to synchronises 'count' property across multiple devices.
for example:
I have a devices A、B.
A device set 'Product.count' = 100.
B device set 'Product.count' = 50.
I hope the 'Product.count' == 150 that results.
how to synchronises the 'Product.count' == 150 for multiple devices.
If I have more devices in future, How to get the latest 'Product.count' that it is correct result.
Hi everyone,
I’m currently developing a SwiftUI app that uses SwiftData with CloudKit sharing enabled. The app works fine on my own Apple ID, and local syncing with iCloud is functioning correctly — but sharing with other Apple IDs consistently fails.
Setup:
SwiftUI + SwiftData using a ModelContainer with .shared configuration
Sharing UI is handled via UICloudSharingController
iCloud container: iCloud.com.de.SkerskiDev.FoodGuard
Proper entitlements enabled (com.apple.developer.icloud-services, CloudKit, com.apple.developer.coredata.cloudkit.containers, etc.)
Automatic provisioning profiles created by Xcode
Error:<CKError 0x1143a2be0: "Bad Container" (5/1014);
"Couldn't get container configuration from the server for container iCloud.com.de.SkerskiDev.FoodGuard">
What I’ve tried:
Verified the iCloud container is correctly created and enabled in the Apple Developer portal
Checked bundle identifier and container settings
Rebuilt and reinstalled the app
Ensured correct iCloud entitlements and signing capabilities
Questions:
Why does CloudKit reject the container for sharing while local syncing works fine?
Are there known issues with SwiftData .shared containers and multi-user sharing?
Are additional steps required (App Store Connect, privacy settings) to allow sharing with other Apple IDs?
Any advice, experience, or example projects would be greatly appreciated. 🙏
Thanks!
Sebastian
