Owner: Yassine Chbani

Description

• A project started by a third party should use your organisation's iOS certificates once a team starts working on it

Impact

• If the original Apple developer account is not an entreprise one, the certificates for the staging app will expire and renewing them will include a dependency to the original owner of the project

Prerequisites

• You have access to the previous Apple Developer account

• Your project uses fastlane

Steps

Removing the old app ID

• Log in to the original Apple Developer account on developer.apple.com

• Go to the certificates, Identifiers and Profiles page

• In the Identifiers section, locate the staging app's ID and select it

• In the menu you opened, browse to the bottom and delete the app ID

Generating a new provisiong profile

• In your fastlane folder, open the .env file for the staging app

• Change the MATCH_GIT_URL and IOS_TEAM_ID fields to the ones used by you organisation

• If not already the case, set MATCH_TYPE to 'enterprise' and MATCH_FORCE_ENTERPRISE to '1' in the IOS_MATCH section of the env file

• Change the FL_HOCKEY_API_TOKEN to you organisation's token

• Run bundle exec fastlane ios setup --env=staging

• Deploy to HockeyApp

• Download and test the app

• Share with your product owner and relevant people the new link to download the staging app
