将新的应用程序版本提交到应用程序商店时，我是否必须创建新的配置文件？

Question

So, i have to release a new version for an iOS app that's currently in the app store, and i ask if i have to create a new provisioning profile for distribution or just use the old profile. (sorry if this question is so stupid but i spent more than 2 hours searching in google and no response found)

Answer 1

Short answer, No. Just an update on Riyaz's answer.

Even for multiple apps belonging to your company OR your app versions, you don't need to create multiple profiles. This can be achieved by wildcard profiles and we do this all the time.

1. Add a wildcard identifier in identifiers section like: com.MyCompanyName.*
2. Add a profile linked to this wildcard identifier with a valid certificate

You can use this for apps with identifiers matching the wildcard, like com.MyCompanyName.NewApp.

Answer 2

No, there is no need to create new provision profile when you just update your existing app on app store. But make sure your previously provision profile working correctly with distribution environment. Hope this help you...

Answer 3

This is simple:
- You need 1 certificate for distribution of all apps.
- You need 1 profile for all versions of a single app, if you have 5 apps then you need to create 5 profiles(1 certificate will work for all)

So the answer is NO .
