Recently, I have trouble with my Xcode Cloud builds, where they seemingly complete, but the very final step does not happen. I am building from the same codebase for both macOS and iOS (I have two “Archive” steps in my workflow, one for iOS and one for macOS). The iOS one usually completes fast without problems. The macOS log ending looks like this, and remains stuck forever, with the macOS build in the “spinning progress” state and never completing. Is there something I can do on my end to make this work better? I would not want to go back to manual builds, Xcode Cloud is convenient and was working well for a while, but this is really annoying lately.

I have a repo with hundreds of tags (we make a tag for every build and for every version, and it has a browser extension project pulled in as a subtree where all those commits can and do have version tags of their own). I am trying to create a simple tag-triggered workflow to release my app to the external users and the app store, so I want to trigger it every time I update and push an e.g. latest tag. I created a workflow and setup the tag trigger accordingly, but, in the workflow config, it says it can't find the tag. I saved the workflow anyway, however, when I try to manually trigger the workflow and browse the Tags tab, I only see a subset of the repo's tags. I suspect Xcode Cloud might be limiting the number of tags it pulls and consequently shows when searching tags. I think this is a bug/shortcoming of Xcode Cloud. Is there any way to work around this?

I have checked that my scheme is shared and I do in fact have the scheme in my xcode project. But whenever I try to run Xcode cloud, it fails with the message that "A scheme named 'MyAppScheme' does not exist in MyAppProject.xcodeproj" Any tips on what I could be doing wrong?

I've configured a workflow to run through tests when a PR is changed. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/configuring-start-conditions Is it possible to configure it so that the tests don't run while it's a draft PR and to only run it once it's moved to ready for review?

When running a SwiftUI Multiplatform app in Xcode Cloud I'm getting the following error: CIWatcher encountered an error in CIWatcherTests failed with: Failed to install or launch the test runner. (Underlying Error: Could not launch “CIWatcherTests”. Runningboard has returned error 5. Please check the system logs for the underlying cause of the error. (Underlying Error: The operation couldn’t be completed. Launch failed. (Underlying Error: Launchd job spawn failed))) This runs fine on iOS and all those tests pass. The SwiftUI app on Mac is a menu bar app so I'm not sure if this could be the issue as it's not launching for some reason on the Xcode Cloud system? Maybe I need to add some run option to make this work? When run locally both iOS and macOS pass all the tests successfully

I'm currently using another provider for CI/CD. They've been offering Apple Silicon builds for over a year now. When we switched over, we saw our build times cut in half. I've seen similar results locally, back when I bought an M1 Mac. So, recently, I tried to use Xcode Cloud on my project. My build time is nearly 45 minutes, where my build time on my current system is about 15 minutes, max. Since I work on a team, and we make regular commits, having a 45 minute turnaround is not ideal. When I looked at the logs of my Xcode Cloud project, I saw a lot "x86_64" stuff in there, which led me to believe that Xcode Cloud is still building on Intel machines. Additionally, I run tests on my builds. The build time alone (before running tests) was almost 20 minutes. The 15-minute time I cited with my current CI/CD included build time & tests running. So, a whole cycle finishes on my current setup before tests are even run. I noticed that there was a bunch of x86_64 in the logs, which made me think that Xcode Cloud is still using Intel. Is this true? I've just gotten really used to faster build times, and I can't move onto a system like this, where the times are so drastically different. Like, I wouldn't mind build time that would add only a few more minutes to what I have now. But going from 15 -> 45 minutes is a real problem.

I'm using Xcode Cloud for release builds and unit tests, and it works fine. Recently, I added some XCUITests, but to run it the way I need I started to use this mock server. Basically, the idea is you define before each test what responses you want to get for specific requests. It works like a charm locally. But if I want to run it in Xcode Cloud, it looks like the server has failed to launch. The mock server is a separately launched binary file. I think this is because this permission I get when launch it locally. So, my question is how to allow this kind of permission in Xcode Cloud to make my UITests works correctly? You can find a detailed instruction how server is launched on a github page I provided.

Hello, I'm getting started for my project with Xcode Cloud since I upgraded to the macOS Sequioa Beta and Xcode 16 now refuses to archive builds for TestFlight. Somewhere very late in the build process I get the following error: realitytool requires Metal for this operation and it is not available in this build environment The log says this happens at: Compile Skybox urban.skybox My project uses RealityKit. How can I fix this issue? Thanks!

Dear We try to generate IPA with Xcode Cloud but this task fail in Export archive phase (Export archive for app-store distribution). The error that appear in the archive logs is: error: exportArchive Provisioning profile "iOS Team Store Provisioning Profile: cl.app.myapp" doesn't include the com.apple.CommCenter.fine-grained entitlement. Any idea about to resolve this problem ? king regards

Hello everyone! I found that the Xcode Cloud workflows under my project are completely stuck. The tasks that are already running cannot be completed. Newly started tasks remain in the queued state forever and cannot be canceled. They are consuming my usage quota 😢. Has anyone else encountered the same issue?

I am setting up a new app and am having problems with Xcode Cloud. From Xcode if I click on the "Cloud" button under the Report Navigator I get a spinner for a long time then get the message "Could not load Xcode Cloud data". I also visited the "Xcode Cloud" tab under my app in App Store Connect and I get a spinner and nothing loads. This is a recent account and I'm setting up Xcode Cloud for the first time. Below is what I've tried and I'm out of ideas on how to get this working. In Xcode, I signed out and back in as the Account Holder Closed Xcode and reopened This occurred yesterday and today and have not seen a problem under the Apple System Status page On the latest Xcode 16.2 Checked the Signing & Capabilities tab in Xcode and my team a bundle Id is correct and it's happy with signing. At this time on my machine I am using the distribution profile.

There seems to be a problem to a specific Apple Developer Account regarding Xcode Cloud Distribution (Signing). The Xcode Cloud Error Invalid Signature. Code failed to satisfy specified code requirement(s). The file at path “XcodeCloudTest.app/XcodeCloudTest” is not properly signed. Make sure you have signed your application with a distribution certificate, not an ad hoc certificate or a development certificate. Verify that the code signing settings in Xcode are correct at the target level (which override any values at the project level). Additionally, make sure the bundle you are uploading was built using a Release target in Xcode, not a Simulator target. If you are certain your code signing settings are correct, choose “Clean All” in Xcode, delete the “build” directory in the Finder, and rebuild your release target. For more information, please consult https://developer.apple.com/support/code-signing. Investigation Apple Developer Forums This issue seems to be known: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/746210 Debugging by ourselves We setup an example Xcode project from a default iOS Xcode app template to rule out any project issues. This example project failed with the same error as stated above. In the next step we tried the same example project with a different Apple Developer Account and it successfully distributed the example App through Xcode Cloud. Conclusion It seems like there is no setup issue on developer-side, because our example project works out-of-the-box on a different Apple Developer Account. Our only hope is that Apple will have a look on our Developer Account. Maybe there is some internal setting.

Hello. We've built our app with Xcode cloud until now. And we faced a issue after we changed some dependencies in SPM. the problems occur while resolving below dependencies https://github.com/naver/naveridlogin-sdk-ios-swift https://github.com/navermaps/SPM-NMapsMap with below message. xcodebuild: error: Could not resolve package dependencies: failed downloading 'https://repository.map.naver.com/archive/pod/NMapsMap/3.21.0/NMapsMap.zip' which is required by binary target 'NMapsMapBinary': downloadError("A server with the specified hostname could not be found.") failed downloading 'https://repository.map.naver.com/archive/pod/NMapsGeometry/1.0.2/NMapsGeometry.zip' which is required by binary target 'NMapsGeometry': downloadError("A server with the specified hostname could not be found.") is there a way to handle this error by ourselves? we need your help. thank you.

Hello guys, I currently have a problem with Xcode cloud. When I setup a simple workflow in my Xcode project that just archives it and builds the project for TestFlight Internal testing, it will fail and give the following error: Invalid Signature. Code failed to satisfy specified code requirement(s). The file at path “DropIn.app/DropIn” is not properly signed. Make sure you have signed your application with a distribution certificate, not an ad hoc certificate or a development certificate. Verify that the code signing settings in Xcode are correct at the target level (which override any values at the project level). Additionally, make sure the bundle you are uploading was built using a Release target in Xcode, not a Simulator target. If you are certain your code signing settings are correct, choose “Clean All” in Xcode, delete the “build” directory in the Finder, and rebuild your release target. For more information, please consult https://developer.apple.com/support/code-signing. I've already been searching for solutions and double checked the documentation. My Xcode project is a simple iOS app with the app target and two other targets for tests and UI tests. I made sure the checkbox "Automatically manage signing" is ticked in all targets. The workflow has only one action "Archive - iOS" with TestFlight (Internal Testing Only) and a post-action "TestFlight Internal Testing - iOS" with an internal testing group assigned. I've seen people having similar problems where it turned out they had a non roman character in their name? This would also affect me if that's the case, since my name includes "ö". I also checked on app store connect and already deleted xcode cloud data, removed all certificates recreated the workflow, but it still gives this error. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Xcode Cloud is unable to run unit tests for a MacOS target after adding a restricted capability (keychain-access-groups). Have tried setting both manual and automatic signing (with a Mac OS development profile). The tests run on my locally fine, but when pushed to Xcode Cloud the crash report indicates a Code Signing Issue, downloading the Artifact for Test Products for AppTests and viewing the app contents I noted that when built locally embedded.provisionprofile appears within the App/Contents that doesn't appear in Xcode Cloud. To reproduce, create a new MacOS app with a test plan, run a Test job (successfully runs) then add the capability for Keychain Sharing: <array> <string>$(AppIdentifierPrefix)com.transmedics.RemoteView.group</string> </array> to the entitlements. Run the job again and tests with the project fails in Xcode Cloud, with code signing issues in the crash report.

My app is approved for the Web Browser Public Key Credential Request managed capability and has it added to its App ID Configuration: It has been added to my entitlements file: I am able to build and run unit tests in Xcode locally using my managed profile. When I push changes and Xcode Cloud tries to build and run the app, I get the following error: Mirrai encountered an error (Failed to install or launch the test runner. (Underlying Error: Could not launch “MirraiTests”. Runningboard has returned error 5. Please check the system logs for the underlying cause of the error. (Underlying Error: The operation couldn’t be completed. Launch failed. (Underlying Error: Launchd job spawn failed)))) Removing just the com.apple.developer.web-browser.public-key-credential entitlement, with no other changes, results in all tests passing on Xcode Cloud. Some thoughts: In project settings, the test target has a different bundle id (appending Tests to the app bundle id). Under "Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles," the managed capability is added to the bundle id but it is an explicit bundle id and not a wildcard. Do I need to apply for the managed capability for the test bundle id as well? Or for a wildcard bundle id? xcodebuild-test-without-building.log

I have an XCode Cloud CI/CD process that's been in place for over a year now, hooked up to the project's GitLab repository. Yesterday it lost connection to the repo, and I can't get it to reconnect. Here's the error I see when I click on the "reconnect" button: The repo still exists, obviously, and I still have maintainer access. I did notice that my private key that I use to connect XCode to GitLab had expired, so I created a new one, but that didn't resolve the issue. Another thing I noticed is that when I try to look at my builds in the console, it tells me to link my gitlab account with my Apple account: But when I click the Link Accounts button, nothing happens. Is there a different way to link the accounts? Is it possible that's what the issue is?

When building xcode project of an application with login item included/embedded (another target), locally it works without problems. But when building on xcode cloud, we are getting the error: ITMS-90286: Invalid code signing entitlements - Your application bundle’s signature contains code signing entitlements that aren’t supported on macOS. Specifically, the “XXX.***.***” value for the com.apple.application-identifier key in “Path_to_login_Item” isn’t supported. This value should be a string that starts with your Team ID, followed by a dot (“.”), followed by the bundle ID. If there are no capabilities added to the login item's target (only com.apple.security.inherit and App Sandbox), the project builds without errors. But our login item needs to access a database in app group container and sync its data with iCloud, so after adding iCloud and App Group entitlements, building on xcode cloud fails with the error written above. Locally it builds and runs without problems. So, what should be done to fix this issue when building on xcode cloud?

Trying to submit a build to TF from Xcode 26 via Xcode Cloud (both for iOS and macOS). The operation fails with this message: Missing app icon. Include a large app icon as a 1024 by 1024 pixel PNG for the 'Any Appearance' image well in the asset catalog of apps built for iOS or iPadOS. Without this icon, apps can't be submitted for review. For details, visit: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/configuring-your-app-icon. If you’ve added an icon made with Icon Composer, visit https://developer.apple.com/app-store-connect/release-notes/ for details about known issues. I thought it's because Icon Composer icons may not be supported yet, but then that last sentence is confusing me. Does this mean that TF just won't support Xcode 26 uploads yet, or does it accept them and I need to provide legacy icons for my build?
