Choose an app to use with XCloud. Developer Team Required
I am the account holder. I cannot log in to App Store Connect despite having paid the $99 and being given a membership id. https://developer.apple.com/help/app-store-connect/get-started/app-store-connect-workflow "Initially, only the Account Holder can sign in to App Store Connect using the Apple Account associated with their Apple Developer Program membership." Without access to App Store Connect, I am unable to create a team.

I am unable to connect Xcode Cloud to my GitHub organization repository despite being the organization owner. Error: CI.SCM.Error.RepositoryNotFound Xcode Version: 16.2 (or your version) Steps I have taken: Verified I am an Owner of the GitHub organization Uninstalled and reinstalled Xcode Cloud GitHub App multiple times Cleared all local Xcode caches and preferences Signed out of Apple ID on Mac and restarted Signed back in to Xcode only (not system level) Tried granting access again Attempted with multiple organization owner accounts Following API shows: 401 Unauthorized on https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/olympus/v1/providerSwitchRequests Additional context: GitHub App shows as successfully installed on organization Repository access set to "All repositories" Has anyone else encountered this or found a workaround? Thank you!

complaint about xcodecloud and missing brew for arm64
Hi, I am curious about why don't you provide an arm64 version of homebrew to your developers. To install arm64 homebrew in xcodecloud requires to compile packages from source. After 35 minutes still running ci_scripts/ci_post_clone.sh to install some packages: arm-brew install coreutils arm-brew install bash awk grep cat arm-brew install make arm-brew install gnu-tar gzip bzip2 xz arm-brew install automake autoconf m4 libtool arm-brew install llvm arm-brew install perl perl-build pod2man python3 meson ninja sqlite libtasn1 openssl libiconv gettext Further I need continues integration to build universal binaries and libraries. Maybe run the integration test suite, too. I think xcodecloud should provide arm64 and x86_64 versions of homebrew. Please consider this change.

Did Xcode 27 beta get pulled from Xcode Cloud Workflows?
I was previously able to test my app on Xcode 27 / iOS 27 by setting the Xcode Version to "Latest beta or release". I needed this to test PrivateCloudCompute on my apps in TestFlight. As of a few days ago this stopped working and only shows the stable 26 release, which removes PCC and my ability to test it. Am I doing something wrong? I didnt change any settings, I just noticed PCC wasnt working, checked the workflow and noticed that it no longer shows Xcode 27.

Xcode Cloud 26b7 Metal Compilation Failure
I've been getting intermittent failures on Xcode code compiling my app on multiple platforms because it fails to compile a metal shader. The Metal Toolchain was not installed and could not compile the Metal source files. Download the Metal Toolchain from Xcode > Settings > Components and try again. Sometimes if I re-run it, it works fine. Then I'll run it again, and it will fail. If you tell me to file a feedback, please tell me what information would be useful and actionable, because this is all I have.

Xcode Cloud cannot be setup from Xcode 27
I'm trying to start using Xcode Cloud from a project, but the only thing I get is the message saying "Failed to create workflow" with the actual error being "Could not find item. Domain: XcodeCloudKit.XcodeCloudCommandHandler.CommandHandlerError Code: 5". Initially, it did lead me to configuring permissions on GitHub. But it failed in the end probably because the git remote of the project was pointing to another organisation, that transferred the ownership to me. I switched remote to my org, but it didn't help. So, I revoked the permission and deleted Xcode Cloud app from my GitHub in hopes that the config process would start again. It does not. All I get is this senseless error. Is Xcode Cloud functionality functioning at all in Xcode beta 27 for anyone?

code Cloud export fails: Session Proxy unable to authenticate with App Store Connect (Code=1, response null)
Xcode Cloud builds fail at the export archive step. The critical log shows: Account "Session Proxy Provider": Unable to authenticate with App Store Connect Error Domain=DVTServicesSessionProviderCredentialITunesAuthenticationContextError Code=1 "(null)" And in DVTITunesSoftwareService.log: App Store Connect response failed with unknown failure; response (null); error (null) error: DVTServicesSessionProviderCredentialITunesAuthenticationContextError.proxy Environment: Xcode Cloud, iOS app, team type Individual (S43L28SVX2) What I have ruled out: Regenerated all DISTRIBUTION_MANAGED certificates (per thread 744683) — portal API is reachable, certs issued successfully Removed an obsolete App Groups entitlement that was causing a secondary error — that error is now gone All agreements accepted, no pending legal items Failure persists across multiple builds with identical symptoms The developer portal API responds correctly. The failure is isolated to the App Store Connect store configuration endpoint specifically, where the proxy returns response (null) — no HTTP response at all. This appears identical to thread https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/810658 where Apple confirmed the root cause was a backend API permission issue for the team requiring an Apple-side fix. Support case 102857550486 was opened but redirected to admin support without technical investigation. Has anyone else hit this recently, or can an Apple engineer look at the backend state for this team?

Why is Xcode Cloud archiving failing?
I'm trying to build an Xcode Cloud workflow, but I keep getting this error. At first it just said I had to accept a license agreement, which I did, but it still didn't work after. I had recently added a new branch to the connected GitHub repository and committed to it so that I can have a beta branch separate from the main one. The only error that happens is when archiving. I am using Xcode 27 beta.

Github repository issues, no branches showing
I added a workflow and it seemed to work fine so lets add them all ! I added a second workflow and it seems to see the repository but not the branches in the repository. I have googled and even asked AI. Checked and it's installed with all repo access on Github Removing the repo .. adding it back Deleting the workflow and adding it back Adding the workflow from the browser Adding the workflow from XCode Nothing seems to work, but the first one I created works. Is there paid support for Xcode Cloud ? I s there a version control that works better with Xcode Cloud? Any suggestions are appreciated.

Setting CFBundleVersion ourselves
Is there a way for me to set CFBundleVersion before TestFlight and/or Notarization actions occur and have it stick? When I've tried doing this with ci_scripts or Script Phases, the system overwrites CFBundleVersion with the Xcode Cloud build number before publishing to TestFlight or notarizing. We have a rather odd setup where we have two apps which are built from the same source & historically have used identical build numbers. So e.g. App A build 3 is built from the same commit as App B build 3. We have a bunch of tooling & processes which assume this, but it's really tough to achieve on Xcode Cloud because the build numbers for two different projects get out of sync really quickly.

Xcode Cloud with watchOS
When I chose a watchOS Test and set the watch with latest watchOS on Xcode Cloud, I could not pass the CI because it showed "xcodebuild: error: Unable to find a destination matching the provided destination specifier: { platform:watchOS Simulator, id:9863C79E-3793-483E-BAA1-F96A0BD34005 }" I've change some destination, but it's not worked. Is there any idea what I can do? The watch app is along with the mobile, not standalone.

Could not load Xcode Cloud Data
Hello, I have Xcode Cloud set up on a project with multiple targets. One target is a Framework that hosts a Swift Package that's used to host modules. I recently added a large number of files (at least 20,000) to some test targets and I can no longer access Xcode Cloud from the Cloud Reports section. Xcode prepares to analyze the project and then fails with Could not load Xcode Cloud Data Removing the files from the package results in the project being analyzed successfully. So it appears to be some sort of a timeout issue. Thank you

Xcode Cloud: Unable to Notarize macOS App (Stuck in Infinite Waiting)
Hi everyone, I’m encountering an issue with Xcode Cloud when trying to notarize my macOS app. As shown in the screenshot, there are no errors in the logs, but the process gets stuck indefinitely. The message says: The post-action could not be completed because the build was canceled. No artifacts are generated at all. This problem started recently. Notarization works perfectly when I submit from my local Xcode, so it seems to be specific to Xcode Cloud. Has anyone else experienced this?

Xcode Cloud resolve packages crash
It's my first time I am configuring the Xcode cloud to build my project. Here is the crash and stack trace Stack trace One thing I noticed when I setup Xcode Cloud - it asked me to grant access to every public github library I have as dependency, I can't do that, as I am not owner or member of those libraries (firebase, swift algorithms, etc) when I tapped "Continue" there was an alert saying if I continue without granting access CI might not be able to fetch dependencies
