After a break using AWS Macs for CI we are willing to give Xcode cloud another go. Unfortunately we are unable to complete the "Grant Access to your Source Code" step. We tried multiple accounts including maintainer, owner and admin. We tried from multiple Macs and versions of macOS. "Connecting Xcode Cloud with your source control provider was incomplete. 503 Service Unavailable. Please ensure that your repository is available and accepting connections."

I am curious whether Xcode Cloud uses npm internally when you run it. With the recent and still simmering Shai-Hulud 2.0 worm, we are just a little concerned. As such, any information would be appreciated. Thank you in advance!

I'm using Xcode cloud to create testflight builds, and I noticed that a few weeks ago these builds no longer contain any "What to Test" info. We include a TestFlight/WhatToTest.de-DE.txt file in our repo, and that file seems to be picked up correctly, at least the logs say Saving “What to test” notes Found notes for de-DE Any ideas of what I should be looking into or change?

Since Dec 18th, my Xcode Cloud builds (for multiple apps) have been failing with this error: Command line name "app-store" is deprecated. Use "app-store-connect" instead. I haven't made any changes to my system, signing, etc, and two separate apps started failing at the same time. No matter what I change on my Workflows (environment, new workflow from scratch, etc), nothing seems to fix it, which leads me to believe this is a bug with Xcode Cloud itself. I've logged FB21456291 already, but just wanted to post here to see if I'm missing something.

Hello guys, recently I integrated a third-party library into my code to handle blur effects (Glur). This library leverages Metal's compute capabilities and appears to automatically depend on the Metal toolchain during the build process. When using Xcode Cloud, the archive step consistently fails with a "CompileMetalFile Failed" error. However, when I manually archive the project in Xcode locally, everything works fine without any issues. I’ve confirmed that the macOS and Xcode versions specified in my Xcode Cloud workflow are correct. Reply if you know how to fix it or it will be fixed future, thanks. I'm using Xcode 26.2(17C52) and macOS(15.7.1 (24G231))

I’m trying to integrate our app with the iXGuard obfuscation tool, which needs to run in the archive post-actions step in Xcode Cloud. The issue is: iXGuard takes a long time to complete and, during its execution, does not generate any console output or logs in the Archive Post-actions step. Problem: When Archive Post-actions runs for a long time without producing log output, Xcode Cloud triggers a timeout and the workflow stops before running the next CI step (e.g., ci_post_xcodebuild.sh). Even though the script continues running in the background, the workflow is aborted due to inactivity in the logs. Workaround Tried: As a workaround, I have ci_post_xcodebuild.sh print the logs generated by archive post-actions. However, this does not help in my case since the timeout occurs before ci_post_xcodebuild.sh even runs. Error: The step invocation hit a user timeout. The xcodebuild archive invocation timed out. No activity has been detected on stdout, stderr or the result bundle in 30 minutes. Question: Is there a recommended way to prevent Xcode Cloud from timing out during long-running steps that do not produce log output? Are there best practices for keeping the workflow alive with periodic logs during Archive Post-actions? Any support or workaround for integrating tools like iXGuard that require significant processing time after the archive step? Thanks in advance for your help!

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.

Hi, Overview I am using Xcode Cloud for my multi platform app. The macOS test case fails, however the iOS test case runs and succeeds. I don't have any UI test cases written, the test case are simple and have nothing platform (macOS) specific. Questions What can I do to fix this? Is there any user privileges needed to launch the macOS app for testing? I ask because when I ran the UI tests locally it launched the app and asked for my macOS user password. Just wondering if that is the reason it didn't launch in Xcode Cloud. Error: <Appname> encountered an error (Failed to install or launch the test runner.

I use xcode to rename a view in my project. It renamed the file, the struct, and all related items. However; since doing that my xcode cloud workflow fails, indicating that the it cannot find it in scope. I have confirmed that the file shows up in my BuildPhases - Compile Sources. I have confirmed it exists in my git repo, but Xcode Cloud still fails to find it in scope. I have confirmed it shows up in the correct Target Membership. I even tried removing it from the BuildPhases and re-adding it. How can I resolve this issue? Is there something else I can look at? btw, application builds fine locally on my machine.

My organization just started having problems with Xcode Cloud this week. We have created a pretty simple 'Build on Pull Request'. The problem is our builds have started failing immediately because with the error. "Could not resolve package dependencies:" What is even more frustrating is the dependency that reported failed seem to changes every time. This did not happen before this week. Our build process is fairly vanilla, through Xcode. (We are NOT using CLI xcodebuild) I can build a locally just fine from a clean build, and cleaning derived data. Nothing has changed in our dependencies. We are not using any private dependencies. So I am stumped on what else to do how to debug, and fix this, because I am not sure how to encourage the Xcode Cloud build runner/server that the dependences are available and to jsut go get them. Any help would be great, because we just started using Xcode Cloud to get away from Fastlane (which was causing problems), and it would be frustrating if this is a sign of things to come. Sincerely, Stan

Hi, I'm trying to use the change url functionality to switch my Xcode Cloud setup from Gitlab.com to my self hosted Gitlab instance. The setup process completes successfully, however, Xcode Cloud does not create any web hooks in my repo and also is not able to fetch any branch/tag information from the Gitlab instance. There is also no error displayed on Xcode Cloud UI. I even tried to debug by looking at requests on my server to see if there are any clues, to no avail. The only clue seems to be that in my repositories page, I see the instance listed but the row is highlighted red (which I assume means there's an issue with the connection). The last accessed date is also empty. The call to the /repos-v3 endpoint from App Store Connect seems to indicate there's an authentication issue: { "primary_repos" : [ { "repo" : { "id" : "xxxxxxxxxxx", "http_clone_url" : "xxxxxxxxxxx", "owner_name" : "xxxxxxxxxxx", "repo_name" : "xxxxxxxxxxx-ios", "repo_id" : "7", "provider" : "gitlab-hosted", "ssh_clone_url" : "ssh://xxxxxxxxxxx", "scp_clone_url" : "git@xxxxxxxxxxx", "default_branch" : "master" }, "authorization_state" : "unauthorized" } ], "additional_repos" : [ ], "unauthorized_repos" : [ ], "revoked_repos" : [ ] } On my end, when I try to add the repository to Xcode Cloud, I see a few requests to my GitLab instance, all of which succeed with 200: {"time":"2025-03-11T21:10:26.217Z","severity":"INFO","duration_s":0.05674,"db_duration_s":0.00567,"view_duration_s":0.05107,"status":200,"method":"GET","path":"/api/v4/user",.... {"time":"2025-03-11T21:10:26.797Z","severity":"INFO","duration_s":0.16682,"db_duration_s":0.02024,"view_duration_s":0.14658,"status":200,"method":"GET","path":"/api/v4/projects/xxxxxx%2Fxxxxxx-ios",.... {"time":"2025-03-11T21:10:28.298Z","severity":"INFO","duration_s":0.06617,"db_duration_s":0.00835,"view_duration_s":0.05782,"status":200,"method":"GET","path":"/api/v4/user",.... {"time":"2025-03-11T21:10:28.867Z","severity":"INFO","duration_s":0.21071,"db_duration_s":0.03075,"view_duration_s":0.17996,"status":200,"method":"GET","path":"/api/v4/projects/xxxxxx%2Fxxxxxx-ios",.... {"time":"2025-03-11T21:10:30.621Z","severity":"INFO","duration_s":0.15613,"db_duration_s":0.01842,"view_duration_s":0.13771,"status":200,"method":"GET","path":"/api/v4/projects/7",.... {"time":"2025-03-11T21:10:31.239Z","severity":"INFO","duration_s":0.1672,"db_duration_s":0.01828,"view_duration_s":0.14892,"status":200,"method":"GET","path":"/api/v4/projects/7",..... At this point I'm sure this is some sort of a bug with Xcode Cloud since the requests do succeed but Xcode Cloud is unable to process the responses and identify the correct branches and tags, as well as set the web hook for the repo.

Possible a duplicate of this resolved post from November, but I can't access any Xcode Cloud artefacts with the message "You are not authorized to access this team’s resources." Trying to access from within Xcode itself crashes Xcode 🙃

Am I doing something wrong? FB18269317

Hello, When archiving a binary with Xcode, I've always kept my archives in the Organizer so I can symbolicate crash logs using the dSYM files. I've been thinking about moving to Xcode Cloud for archiving. Will crash logs still be symbolicated and readable in the Xcode Organizer? Thank you, Axel

I'm setting up a first workflow in Xcode Cloud and when I go through the flow and reach the 'Grant Access to your source code' pane, my projects repo is listed as primary and has a green checkmark next to it, but one of my SPM dependencies does not. When I press the 'Grant Access' it launches AppStoreConnect which complains the repo can't be found or I don't have the correct admin permissions. I'm using BitBucket Cloud and both repos are mine and I am the admin for both. Xcode itself will build the dependency locally correctly. I did see that the dependent SPM package needs a Package.resolved checked in, which I've now done, but I can still no longer get past the Grant Access step. When I try to add myself as admin to the dependent repo, BitBucket says I can't be added because I'm already an admin. This is the same for the projects primary repo as well. But Xcode still thinks I only have read access. How do I get passed this? Xcode isn't even telling me what repo is troublesome: { "category" : "xcode-cloud-data", "column" : "23", "subsystem" : "com.apple.dt.XcodeCloudKit", "details" : "Error alert: You must have Admin or Write access to your repository.

My post-build script takes the "developeridexport" archive export, zips it up and uses notarytool to notarize it. I then add the .zip to a .dmg disk image. The next step is to codesign the disk image before notarizing that too. The issue is my Developer ID Application certificate is not accessible to the build host. (When I was doing this in Microsoft AppCenter (now defunct), it had a copy of my Developer ID Application certificate.) What steps do I need to take to get the disk image signed for notarization? Thanks! Lance

Some of my apps are configured to use Xcode Cloud. Some time ago, this service was blocked for developers from Russia. I want to transfer one of my apps to another account. But there is the following requirement in the checklist: "You must remove all Xcode Cloud related data from the app you want transferred." I can't do it myself because I see an error in App Store Connect: "The page you’re looking for can’t be found.". It is also not available through Xcode. I would like to delete all Xcode Cloud settings for all my apps. Can you help me with this?

We are integrating Xcode Cloud into a larger CI/CD pipeline and ran into a serious limitation that makes proper build status reporting nearly impossible. Currently, Xcode Cloud provides only the following custom script phases: • ci_post_clone.sh • ci_pre_xcodebuild.sh • ci_post_xcodebuild.sh However, if a build fails during the actual Xcode build phase (for example, due to a compilation error, unit test failure, or signing issue), the ci_post_xcodebuild.sh script does not run. This means there is no guaranteed way to execute cleanup steps or send external notifications (e.g., updating build status in Bitbucket, Slack, or any external CI system). In any robust CI/CD setup, it’s critical to have a “finally” or “always run” hook that executes regardless of build success or failure — similar to post blocks in Jenkins, finally steps in GitHub Actions, or after_script in GitLab CI. Without such a mechanism, we cannot reliably integrate Xcode Cloud with the rest of our automation and monitoring ecosystem. This effectively breaks standard CI/CD practices, since external systems will never know if a build failed unless they constantly poll the Xcode Cloud API. Feature request: Please add a new hook (e.g., ci_finally.sh or ci_post_build.sh) that always executes after the build, whether it succeeded, failed, or was canceled. This would make Xcode Cloud much more suitable for professional CI/CD environments and allow proper integration with third-party systems.

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?
