Hey guys, I'm developing a Swift app, using iCloud to store some data in Containers, and the new Containers I created are iCloud.com.xxx.dev . Therefore, there is a storage called dev in Settings -> icloud -> Manage Account Storage. Currently, the app is still under development and has not been released to the Appstore. My question: Settings -> icloud -> Manage Account Storage does not display my app name and icon, but only the suffix of the Containers id. Will this change after it is released to the Appstore? Are there any other control methods? Thank you

Is there a way to move user data from UserDefaults to SwiftData when the app is in production so that people don’t lose their data. Currently my audio journals in my journal app has everything in the UserDefaults. Now this is bad for obvious reasons but I was thinking if there was a way. It’s only been 1 week since published and I have already had17 people download it.

Hello, I'm planning to had an onboarding to one of my apps. I am thinking about a way for a user to not see the onboarding again if he installs the app on another device. So for example, the user completes the onboarding on its iPhone, then downloads the app on its iPad and launch it, he doesn't see the onboarding a second time. I thought about using iCloud NSUbiquitousKeyValueStored to store the onboarding completion state. But I'm not sure when the data is synced to the other device logged into the same Apple account: Immediately even if the app is not installed on the other device (independent from the app, only iCloud thing)? At the same time as the app install on the other device? After the app is first launched on the other device? Of course synchronisation will depend on the Internet connection, speed, etc. so the app should handle the case where the data is not here but what would be the best case scenario? Thank you, Axel

Hi Developer Community, I'm experiencing a critical issue with CloudKit schema deployment that's blocking my app release. I've been trying to resolve this for several days and would appreciate any assistance from the community or Apple engineers. Issue Description I'm unable to deploy my CloudKit schema from development to production environment. When attempting to deploy through the CloudKit Dashboard, I either get an "Internal Error" message or the deployment button is disabled. Environment Details App: Reef Trak (Reef aquarium tracking app) CloudKit Container: ************ Development Environment: Schema fully defined and working correctly Production Environment: No schema deployed (confirmed in dashboard) What I've Tried Using the "Deploy Schema to Production" button in CloudKit Dashboard (results in "Internal Error") Exporting schema from development and importing to production (fails) Using CloudKit CLI tools with API token (results in "invalid-scope" errors) Waiting 24-48 hours between attempts in case of propagation delays Current Status App works perfectly in development environment (when run from Xcode) In TestFlight/sideloaded builds (production environment), the app attempts to fetch records but fails with "Did not find record type: Tank" errors Log snippet showing the issue: [2025-03-21] [CloudKit] Schema creation failed: Error saving record <CKRecordID: 0x******; recordName=SchemaSetup_Tank_-**---****, zoneID=_defaultZone:defaultOwner> to server: Cannot create new type Tank in production schema [2025-03-21] [CloudKit] Failed to create schema for Tank after 3 attempts [2025-03-21] [CloudKit] Error creating schema for Tank: Error saving record <CKRecordID: 0x****; recordName=SchemaSetup_Tank_---**-**********, zoneID=_defaultZone:defaultOwner> to server: Cannot create new type Tank in production schema App Architecture & Critical Impact My app "Reef Trak" is built around a core data model where the "Tank" entity serves as the foundational element of the entire application architecture. The Tank entity is not just another data type - it's the primary container that establishes the hierarchical relationship for all other entities: All parameter measurements (pH, temperature, salinity, etc.) are associated with specific tanks All maintenance tasks and schedules are tank-specific All livestock (fish, corals, invertebrates) exist within the context of a tank All user achievements and progress tracking depend on tank-related activities Without the Tank schema being properly deployed to production, users experience what appears to be a completely empty application, despite successful authentication and CloudKit connection. The app shows "Successfully retrieved iCloud data" but displays no content because: The Tank record type doesn't exist in production Without Tanks, all child entities (even if their schemas existed) have no parent to associate with This creates a cascading failure where no data can be displayed or saved This issue effectively renders the entire application non-functional in production, despite working flawlessly in development. Users are left with an empty shell of an app that cannot fulfill its core purpose of reef tank management and monitoring. The inability to deploy the Tank schema to production is therefore not just a minor inconvenience but a complete blocker for the app's release and functionality. Questions Is there an alternative method to deploy schema to production that I'm missing? Could there be an issue with my account permissions or container configuration? Are there known issues with the CloudKit Dashboard deployment functionality? What's the recommended approach when the dashboard deployment fails? I've also submitted a Technical Support Incident, but I'm hoping to get this resolved quickly as it's blocking my App Store release. Thank you for any assistance!

I'm trying to set up server-to-server authentication with CloudKit Web Services, but keep getting AUTHENTICATION_FAILED errors. I've tried multiple environment settings and debugging approaches without success. What I've Tried I created a Swift script to test the connection. Here's the key part that handles the authentication: // Get current ISO 8601 date let iso8601Formatter = ISO8601DateFormatter() iso8601Formatter.formatOptions = [.withInternetDateTime] let dateString = iso8601Formatter.string(from: Date()) // Create SHA-256 hash of request body let bodyHash = SHA256.hash(data: bodyData).compactMap { String(format: "%02x", $0) }.joined() // Get path from URL let path = request.url?.path ?? "/" // String to sign let method = request.httpMethod ?? "POST" let stringToSign = "\(method):\(path):\(dateString):\(bodyHash)" // Sign the string with EC private key let signature = try createSignature(stringToSign: stringToSign) // Add headers request.setValue(dateString, forHTTPHeaderField: "X-Apple-CloudKit-Request-ISO8601Date") request.setValue(KEY_ID, forHTTPHeaderField: "X-Apple-CloudKit-Request-KeyID") request.setValue(signature, forHTTPHeaderField: "X-Apple-CloudKit-Request-SignatureV1") } I've made a request to this endpoint: What's Happening I get a 401 status with this response: "uuid" : "173179e2-c5a5-4393-ab4f-3cec194edd1c", "serverErrorCode" : "AUTHENTICATION_FAILED", "reason" : "Authentication failed" } What I've Verified The key validates correctly and generates signatures The date/time is synchronized with the server The key ID matches what's in CloudKit Dashboard I've tried all three environments: development, Development (capital D), and production The container ID is formatted correctly Debug Information My debugging reveals: The EC key is properly formatted (SEC1 format) Signature generation works No time synchronization issues between client and server All environment tests return the same 401 error Questions Has anyone encountered similar issues with CloudKit server-to-server authentication? Are there specific container permissions needed for server-to-server keys? Could there be an issue with how the private key is formatted or processed? Are there any known issues with the CloudKit Web Services API that might cause this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

How do I filter data using @Query with a Set of DateComponents? I successfully saved multiple dates using a MultiDatePicker in AddView.swift. In ListView.swift, I want to retrieve all records for the current or today’s date. There are hundreds of examples using @Query with strings and dates, but I haven’t found an example of @Query using a Set of DateComponents Nothing will compile and after hundreds and hundreds of attempts, my hair is turning gray. Please, please, please help me. For example, if the current date is Tuesday, March 4 205, then I want to retrieve both records. Since both records contain Tuesday, March 4, then retrieve both records. Sorting works fine because the order by clause uses period which is a Double. Unfortunately, my syntax is incorrect and I don’t know the correct predicate syntax for @Query and a Set of DateComponents. Class Planner.swift file import SwiftUI import SwiftData 
 @Model class Planner { //var id: UUID = UUID() var grade: Double = 4.0 var kumi: Double = 4.0 var period: Double = 1.0 var dates: Set<DateComponents> = [] init( grade: Double = 4.0, kumi: Double = 4.0, period: Double = 1.0, dates: Set<DateComponents> = [] ) { self.grade = grade self.kumi = kumi self.period = period self.dates = dates 
 } } @Query Model snippet of code does not work The compile error is to use a Set of DateComponents, not just DateComponents. @Query(filter: #Predicate<Planner> { $0.dates = DateComponents(calendar: Calendar.current, year: 2025, month: 3, day: 4)}, sort: [SortDescriptor(\Planner.period)]) var planner: [Planner] ListView.swift image EditView.swift for record #1 DB Browser for SQLlite: record #1 (March 6, 2025 and March 4, 2025)

Hi, I am creating (or trying to) my first app using SwiftData - and I have questions :-) The main question I can't get my head wrapped around is the following: Let's say I have the sample below... @Model class Person { @Relationship(inverse:\Hat.owner) var hat:Hat } @Model class Hat { var owner:Person? } It looks like I am creating a strong reference cycle between the person and the hat objects? And in fact I am seeing these kinds of reference cycles when I look at the memory debugger. Many code samples I have seen so far use this type of relationship declaration... And I am wondering: Am I missing something? Admittedly I don't find many discussions about memory leaks caused by SwiftData despite the syntax being used in many examples? So what is the situation? Did Apple just miss to explain that the inverse: declaration causes memory leaks or is there some kind of magic that I should understand?

I get this error, i have my own DIKit, and i want to use swiftdata for showing info from persisten model.

I am trying to read and write a text file from an App written in Swift in XCode directly to the "iCloud Drive" folder in Files on the iPhone. The app worked readlly reading and writing to the Documents folder in the App container, and then readily to the "On My iPhone" folder in Files after adding 2 lines to the plist that I found in a search online. But I have been unable to get to the iCloud Drive folder. I found an item called "Enabling Document Storage in iCloud Drive" in "iCloud Design Guide" with additional plist entries that states "These settings allow iCloud Drive to provide public access to the files stored in your app’s container": NSUbiquitousContainers iCloud.com.example.MyApp NSUbiquitousContainerIsDocumentScopePublic NSUbiquitousContainerSupportedFolderLevels Any NSUbiquitousContainerName MyApp I think I changed the MyApp items appropriately. I have enabled iCloud in my App and the XCode General, and Signing entries. But this does not work. There are no error messages and no "Steps" shown in the "Capabilities" entry in Xcode. A little help? :-)

Setup I am running a versionedSchema for my SwiftData model and attempting a migration. The new version contains a new attribute, with a type of a new custom enum defined in the @Model class, a default value, and a private(set). Migration was completed with a migrationPlan with nil values for willMigrate and didMigrate. Example - Previous Version @Model class MyNumber { var num: Int init() { // Init Code } } Example - Newest Version @Model class MyNumber { var num: Int private(set) var rounding: RoundAmount = MyNumber.RoundAmount.thirtyMinute init() { // Init Code } enum RoundAmount { case fiveMinute, tenMinute, thirtyMinute } } Issue Running this code, I get a swiftData error for “SwiftData/ModelCoders.swift:1585: nil value passed for a non-optional keyPath, /MyNumber.rounding” I assume this means a failure of the swiftData lightweight migration? I have reverted the version, removed private(set) and re-tried the migration with no success. Using the versionedSchema with migrationPlans, are lightweight migrations possible? Could this be an issue with the use of a custom enum? Other changes in my actual project migrated successfully so I’m lost on why I’m having this issue.

Hey there, Can we bundle our app with our own version of SQLite with extensions that we want. From what I've seen, we aren't allowed to add extensions to the built in IOS SQLite, so would this be the only way to use extensions. I ask this because I want to use the spell fix extension. I couldn't find a lot of people talking about adding SQLite extensions. Thank you!

When I try to use an entity created in a CoreData, it gives me: 'PlayerData' is ambiguous for type lookup in this context

In a CloudKit private database, the Owner creates a custom zone and performs the following actions: Creates CKRecord1 with CKShare1 and invites Participant1 to it. Creates CKRecord2 with CKShare2 and invites Participant2 to it. Creates CKRecordShared, which should be accessible to both Participant1 and Participant2. How can I achieve step 3? I observed that: Setting a regular reference from CKRecord1 (or CKRecord2) to CKRecordShared does not automatically make CKRecordShared accessible to Participant1 (or Participant2). CKRecordShared can only have one parent, so it cannot be directly linked via parent reference to both Participant1 and Participant2 at the same time. One potential solution I see is to have the Owner create a separate CKShare for CKRecordShared and share it explicitly with each participant. However, this approach could lead to user errors, as it requires careful management of multiple shares for each participant. Is there a better way to handle this scenario, ensuring that CKRecordShared is accessible to multiple participants without introducing unnecessary complexity or potential errors?

There's some logic in my app that first checks to see if a specific CloudKit record zone exists. If it doesn't, it creates the zone, and then my application continues on with its work. The way I've implemented this right now is by catching the zoneNotFound error when I call CKDatabase#recordZone(for:) (docs) and creating the zone when that happens: do { try await db.recordZone(for: zoneID) } catch let ckError as CKError where [.zoneNotFound, .userDeletedZone].contains(ckError.code) { // createZone is a helper function try await createZone(zoneID: zoneID, context: context) } This works great, but every time I do this, an error is logged in CloudKit Console, which creates a lot of noise and makes it harder to see real errors. Is there a way to do this without explicitly triggering a CloudKit error? I just found CKDatabase#recordZones(for:) (docs), which seems like it returns an empty array instead of throwing an error if the zone doesn't exist. Will calling that and looking for a non-empty array work just as well, but without logging lots of errors in the console?

I have some models in my app: [SDPlanBrief.self, SDAirport.self, SDChart.self, SDIndividualRunwayAirport.self, SDLocationBrief.self] SDLocationBrief has a @Relationship with SDChart When I went live with my app I didn't have a versioned schema, but quickly had to change that as I needed to add items to my SDPlanBrief Model. The first versioned schema I made included only the model that I had made a change to. static var models: [any PersistentModel.Type] { [SDPlanBrief.self] } I had made zero changes to my model container and the whole time, and it was working fine. The migration worked well and this is what I was using: .modelContainer(for: [SDAirport.self, SDIndividualRunwayAirport.self, SDLocationBrief.self, SDChart.self, SDPlanBrief.self]) I then saw that to do this all properly, I should actually include ALL of my @Models in the versioned schema: enum AllSwiftDataSchemaV3: VersionedSchema { static var models: [any PersistentModel.Type] { [SDPlanBrief.self, SDAirport.self, SDChart.self, SDIndividualRunwayAirport.self, SDLocationBrief.self] } static var versionIdentifier: Schema.Version = .init(2, 0, 0) } extension AllSwiftDataSchemaV3 { @Model class SDPlanBrief { var destination: String etc... init(destination: String, etc...) { self.destination = destination etc... } } @Model class SDAirport { var catABMinima: String etc... init(catABMinima: String etc...) { self.catABMinima = catABMinima etc... } } @Model class SDChart: Identifiable { var key: String etc... var brief: SDLocationBrief? // @Relationship with SDChart init(key: String etc...) { self.key = key etc... } } @Model class SDIndividualRunwayAirport { var icaoCode: String etc... init(icaoCode: String etc...) { self.icaoCode = icaoCode etc... } } @Model class SDLocationBrief: Identifiable { var briefString: String etc... @Relationship(deleteRule: .cascade, inverse: \SDChart.brief) var chartsArray = [SDChart]() init( briefString: String, etc... chartsArray: [SDChart] = [] ) { self.briefString = briefString etc... self.chartsArray = chartsArray } } } This is ALL my models in here btw. I saw also that modelContainer needed updating to work better for versioned schemas. I changed my modelContainer to look like this: actor ModelContainerActor { @MainActor static func container() -> ModelContainer { let schema = Schema( versionedSchema: AllSwiftDataSchemaV3.self ) let configuration = ModelConfiguration() let container = try! ModelContainer( for: schema, migrationPlan: PlanBriefMigrationPlan.self, configurations: configuration ) return container } } and I am passing in like so: .modelContainer(ModelContainerActor.container()) Each time I run the app now, I suddenly get this message a few times in a row: CoreData: error: Attempting to retrieve an NSManagedObjectModel version checksum while the model is still editable. This may result in an unstable verison checksum. Add model to NSPersistentStoreCoordinator and try again. I typealias all of these models too for the most recent V3 version eg: typealias SDPlanBrief = AllSwiftDataSchemaV3.SDPlanBrief Can someone see if I am doing something wrong here? It seems my TestFlight users are experiencing a crash every now and then when certain views load (I assume when accessing @Query objects). Seems its more so when a view loads quickly, like when removing a subscription view where the data may not have had time to load??? Can someone please have a look and help me out.

I have a project that currently has data saved locally and I'm trying to get it to sync over multiple devices. Currently basic data is syncing perfectly fine, but I'm having issues getting the images to convert to data. From what I've researched it because I'm using a UIImage to convert and this caches the image It works fine when there's only a few images, but if there's several its a pain The associated code func updateLocalImages() { autoreleasepool { let fetchRequest: NSFetchRequest&lt;Project&gt; = Project.fetchRequest() fetchRequest.predicate = NSPredicate(format: "converted = %d", false) fetchRequest.sortDescriptors = [NSSortDescriptor(keyPath: \Project.statusOrder?.sortOrder, ascending: true), NSSortDescriptor(keyPath: \Project.name, ascending: true)] do { let projects = try viewContext.fetch(fetchRequest) for project in projects { currentPicNumber = 0 currentProjectName = project.name ?? "Error loading project" if let pictures = project.pictures { projectPicNumber = pictures.count for pic in pictures { currentPicNumber = currentPicNumber + 1 let picture : Picture = pic as! Picture if let imgData = convertImage(picture: picture) { picture.pictureData = imgData } } project.converted = true saveContext() } } } catch { print("Fetch Failed") } } } func convertImage(picture : Picture)-&gt; Data? { let paths = FileManager.default.urls(for: .documentDirectory, in: .userDomainMask) let path = paths[0] if let picName = picture.pictureName { let imagePath = path.appendingPathComponent(picName) if let uiImage = UIImage(contentsOfFile: imagePath.path) { if let imageData = uiImage.jpegData(compressionQuality: 0.5) { return imageData } } } return nil }```

I am attempting to migrate a cloudkit module that calls on manual cloudkit methods for fetching record zone changes, modifying records, etc to one that utilizes CKSyncEngine. I've got a basic implementation working with just a create method for one of my data models, however it seems like the sync engine keeps calling sync events on the same pending changes. Here is my current flow: The user will hit some button that lets them fill out a form to create a data model. The user saves the form. This triggers a method that takes the resulting data model and queues it to the sync engine's state (engine.state.add(pendingRecordZoneChanges: pendingChanges) I have my delegate method nextRecordZoneChangeBatch(_ context:...) implemented where it fetches the corresponding data model using the record ID and returns a batch containing the corresponding populated record from the data model. I have the handleEvent(_ event:...) delegate method implemented where I handle both .fetchRecordZoneChanges and .sentRecordZoneChanges. I have set up .sentRecordZoneChanges to merge the server record into my local record (and persisted locally) so that the record change tags are the same. After this last portion, it seems that the sync engine continues to keep pushing syncs/updates and I end up with numerous handleEvent(_ event:) calls that keep returning savedRecords (and occasionally failedRecordSaves). Am I missing some step to remove the record from the changes after the sync engine recognizes that I have properly saved the record to the server?

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

SwiftData delete isn't working, when I attempt to delete a model, my app crashes and I get the following error: SwiftData/PersistentModel.swift:359: Fatal error: Cannot remove My_App.Model2 from relationship Relationship - name: model2, options: [], valueType: Model2, destination: Model2, inverseName: models3, inverseKeypath: Optional(\Model2.models3) on My_App.Model3 because an appropriate default value is not configured. I get that it's saying I don't have a default value, but why do I need one? Isn't @Relationship .cascade automatically deleting the associated models?
