iTunes Connect submission code signing entitlements error Xcode 8

Try this solution:

  1. Create new "Provisioning profile" & import it.
  2. Restart XCode
  3. Uncheck "Automatically manage signing"
  4. In the drop downlist select new provisioning profile.
  5. Check "Automatically manage signing".

It should help you.


What helped me was:

I unchecked "Automatically manage signing" and then check it on again. After that Xcode told me it would reset the settings to the default and after that it finally worked.


I wasted more than a whole day on this but I finally found the solution!

Somehow in my Build Settings, the "Product Bundle Identifier" was only my apps name instead of the unique Bundle Identifier (e.g. com.YX.AppName).

Click on your project, choose your App, press Build Settings and search for "packaging". You should find it there.

Found this by creating a brand new project and comparing every single setting.

In case this is not what is wrong in your project, these are the things I found on this topic before. Maybe one of these things might help you:

  • project > Alt + Clean (Cleans the whole Build Folder)
  • restarted xcode (that helped many others!)
  • revoked all Provisioning Profiles and let Xcode create new ones (Xcode > Preferences > Accounts > View Details > Create next to iOS Distribution)
  • checked that all App ID names where right
    • for com.AB.CDE the name has to be "com AB CDE"
  • restarted PC
  • checked that Xcode and macOS were the newest version
