iOS Extensions signing?

[streinhard]

+1 For this feature, this would allow us to ditch our old CI solution and switch to AppCenter completly ;)

Hi @lassana, we released support for iOS extensions recently! You can read more about it in our blog post: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/vsappcenter/announcing-ios-app-extension-and-watchos-support-in-visual-studio-app-center/

[nilofer]

@lassana, that is correct and shown in our docs. We do not currently support extensions for Xamarin apps. We recently opened up a public-facing repository where you can feel free to create an issue for support for this.

Hi, unfortunately we don't support to sign iOS extensions at the moment.

[lassana]

@derpixeldan thank you for the answer. Do you have any plans about this?

[siminapasat]

@lassana Yes, we recognize that this is a missing feature and it is on our future plans. Unfortunately, I don't have an ETA for this.

[lassana]

Hi @siminapasat is there any update on this?

[lassana]

Cool! Thank you for rapid response!

@nrajpurkar Hi,
Unfortunately, iOS app extension signing still doesn't work for us.

The docs say:

App Center will automatically detect any watchOS or app extension targets in the project and provide fields to upload the certificate and provisioning profiles required

However, I do not observe this section in our Build configuration, only one provisioning profile can be uploaded:

I've re-uploaded both p12 and mobileprovision files, started a new build and, as expected, the build failed with the following error:

"/Users/vsts/agent/2.144.2/work/1/s/***********.sln" (Rebuild target) (1) ->
"/Users/vsts/agent/2.144.2/work/1/s/iOS/**********.iOS.csproj" (Rebuild target) (2) ->
"/Users/vsts/agent/2.144.2/work/1/s/**********.iOS.ShareExtension/**********.iOS.ShareExtension.csproj" (default target) (6) ->
  Info.plist : error : Project bundle identifier 'com.**********.shareextension' does not match specified provisioning profile 'b231c9ba-1643-49d7-9bc3-04feb86e57a5' [/Users/vsts/agent/2.144.2/work/1/s/**********.iOS.ShareExtension/**********.iOS.ShareExtension.csproj]

Build configuration still doesn't let me to upload additional provisioning profiles. Could you explain how AppCenter actually detects app extensions?

[nilofer]

Hi @lassana, can you get in touch with us using the blue chat bubble in the corner of the App Center portal? We'll be able to better take a look at the issue you'e seeing there. Thanks!

@nrajpurkar can you confirm that iOS extension signing is available for native Obj-C/Swift apps only and not for Xamarin?
