No Suitable application record were found. When Validating Application

Question

Okay I register my application to Itunes connect. I make sure that the correct application name and bundle is available.

Then I archieve my project and then I want to validate.

Then I got this message.

What is exactly wrong?

Is apple cannot figure out any application with the same bundle id and the same application name? Which one mismatch?

Answer 1

This is a common error. Just make sure that you set your app's state to waiting for upload

From Apple's documentation:

Troubleshooting: If Xcode doesn't find an iTunes Connect application record for your application, the “No suitable application records were found” dialog appears. This dialog also appears when the application record state is not at least Waiting for Upload.

When you register your app, it becomes 'Ready For Upload' first. You have to put it to 'Waiting For Upload' manually, by clicking the bottom-right button in iTunes Connect.

Answer 2

I'll add another answer because I just spent the last 30 minutes trying to figure out why I could not get validation to work...

If you have multiple iTunes Connect accounts, make sure you are logging in with the correct account that you created the app in iTunesConnect with.

It sounds like a no-brainer but the Organizer remembers the credentials that you last validated with for deployment. The last app I shipped was several months ago under my contractor credentials. My new app is under my own credentials but I was trying to authenticate with the saved contractor credentials. ugh.
