Xcode Cloud error 401
I have now signed out of my account in Xcode, quit the application, signed back in, and also cleared the Xcode derived data and cache. However, I am still receiving the 401 Unauthorized error Any operation related to Xcode Cloud (e.g., viewing the dashboard, creating a workflow) fails immediately across all Xcode projects, including brand-new empty projects. The error is consistent and always appears as: API Invalid status code: 401.

[Xcode 17A5305k] API Invalid status code: 401: This operation could not be completed
I cannot setup a workflow - every time it says "This operation could not be completed" after granting access to the source code. I removed the app from AppStore Connect, I logged out from Xcode, removed and reset the app from Github, initialized a new repository, reset Xcode Derived Data, reset the Profiles and Certificates. I tried everything and nothing worked. Any help?

Add Option to Skip Xcode Cloud Workflows for Draft Pull Requests
We would like to request an enhancement to Xcode Cloud workflows to support skipping builds when a GitHub Pull Request is in Draft state. Our team frequently collaborates on pull requests that go through multiple iterations during the code review cycle. Each small commit or push triggers an Xcode Cloud workflow run, even if the PR is still in draft and not ready for final review or CI validation. This leads to: Wasted compute resources and time on draft work that is not yet intended for integration. Increased noise in Xcode Cloud logs and dashboards. Longer feedback cycles for meaningful PRs, since draft workflows compete for available concurrency. A simple option in the workflow configuration (e.g., “Skip runs for draft pull requests”) would address this problem by: Reducing unnecessary workflow executions. Freeing up capacity for production-ready and review-ready builds. Improving overall developer productivity by aligning CI runs with the actual readiness of a PR. This feature would be especially valuable for teams with frequent collaboration and long-lived PRs. Thank you for considering this request—we believe it would significantly improve the efficiency of Xcode Cloud for real-world development workflows.

Turn off Xcode Cloud
Some of my apps are configured to use Xcode Cloud. Some time ago, this service was blocked for developers from Russia. I want to transfer one of my apps to another account. But there is the following requirement in the checklist: "You must remove all Xcode Cloud related data from the app you want transferred." I can't do it myself because I see an error in App Store Connect: "The page you’re looking for can’t be found.". It is also not available through Xcode. I would like to delete all Xcode Cloud settings for all my apps. Can you help me with this?

Lack of “Always Run” / Post-Failure Script Hook in Xcode Cloud Breaks CI/CD Integration
We are integrating Xcode Cloud into a larger CI/CD pipeline and ran into a serious limitation that makes proper build status reporting nearly impossible. Currently, Xcode Cloud provides only the following custom script phases: • ci_post_clone.sh • ci_pre_xcodebuild.sh • ci_post_xcodebuild.sh However, if a build fails during the actual Xcode build phase (for example, due to a compilation error, unit test failure, or signing issue), the ci_post_xcodebuild.sh script does not run. This means there is no guaranteed way to execute cleanup steps or send external notifications (e.g., updating build status in Bitbucket, Slack, or any external CI system). In any robust CI/CD setup, it’s critical to have a “finally” or “always run” hook that executes regardless of build success or failure — similar to post blocks in Jenkins, finally steps in GitHub Actions, or after_script in GitLab CI. Without such a mechanism, we cannot reliably integrate Xcode Cloud with the rest of our automation and monitoring ecosystem. This effectively breaks standard CI/CD practices, since external systems will never know if a build failed unless they constantly poll the Xcode Cloud API. Feature request: Please add a new hook (e.g., ci_finally.sh or ci_post_build.sh) that always executes after the build, whether it succeeded, failed, or was canceled. This would make Xcode Cloud much more suitable for professional CI/CD environments and allow proper integration with third-party systems.

Xcode cloud workflow app association
Hi We have a project with one app, where we have multiple schemes to create either a staging or release version of the app. We change the bundle identifier of the app so it's a separate app in app store connect. One staging app and one release app. We are trying to integrate Xcode cloud workflows, however, there's only one app visible in the Xcode cloud tab and when we create a workflow it gets automatically assigned to the staging app in app store connect. We cannot create the workflow under the release app in app store connect, as the manage workflows button is not visible until you've created the first workflow for an app in xcode. How can we create a workflow and force it to be associated with the release app in app store connect?

Unable to reconnect Xcode Cloud after disabling it (still processing opt-out)
Hi everyone, After disabling Xcode Cloud for my team, I tried to enable it again for my product. However, I keep seeing this message when reconnecting to my source control: "Connecting Xcode Cloud with your source control provider was incomplete. Products cannot be configured to use Xcode Cloud while your team’s opt-out request is being processed." It’s been about a week since I disabled it, but I still can’t re-enable Xcode Cloud. I’ve tried reconnecting through GitHub and Bitbucket, and both show the same message. Could anyone share: How long does this “processing” phase usually take? Is there a way to check or request reactivation manually? Team type: Organization Region: Japan Thank you in advance for any suggestions or similar experiences!

iOS 26.1 is not installed in Xcode Cloud using Xcode 26.1 and iOS 26.1 testing scheme
When running an Xcode Cloud workflow pinned to Xcode 26.1, macOS 26.1 and using a Test Destination for iPhone 15 Pro and iOS 26.1, the following error appears in the xcodebuild-build-for-testing.log: 2025-11-13T19:08:31.855137440Z xcodebuild: error: Unable to find a destination matching the provided destination specifier: 2025-11-13T19:08:31.855318998Z { platform:iOS Simulator, id:704F84C8-025F-4F70-B2D9-FF19B7DC098F } 2025-11-13T19:08:31.855362640Z 2025-11-13T19:08:31.855370957Z Ineligible destinations for the "Inbound" scheme: 2025-11-13T19:08:31.855381964Z { platform:iOS, id:dvtdevice-DVTiPhonePlaceholder-iphoneos:placeholder, name:Any iOS Device, error:iOS 26.1 is not installed. Please download and install the platform from Xcode > Settings > Components. } This can be fixed if ci_pre_xcodebuild.sh is updated with the following: # Get Xcode major version # `xcodebuild -version` returns something like: # Xcode 26.0.1 # Build version 17A400 XCODE_VERSION=$(xcodebuild -version | head -n 1 | awk '{print $2}' | cut -d. -f1) if [ "$XCODE_VERSION" -ge 26 ]; then if xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS >/dev/null 2>&1; then echo "iOS platform is installed" else echo "iOS platform is not installed. Failing the build." exit 1 fi fi Changing the workflow to use "Latest Release" of Xcode (26.1), macOS (26.1) and the Latest Test Destination iOS (26.1) version provided also does not work.

CloudKit, SwiftData models and app crashing
Hi all... The app I'm building is not really a beginner level test app, it's intended to be published so I want everything to be done properly while I'm both learning and building the app. I'm new to swift ecosystem but well experienced with python and JS ecosystems. These two models are causing my app to crash @Model final class CustomerModel { var id: String = UUID().uuidString var name: String = "" var email: String = "" var phone: String = "" var address: String = "" var city: String = "" var postalCode: String = "" var country: String = "" @Relationship(deleteRule: .nullify) var orders: [OrderModel]? @Relationship(deleteRule: .nullify) var invoices: [InvoiceModel]? init() {} } @Model final class OrderModel { var id: String = UUID().uuidString var total: Double = 0 var status: String = "processing" var tracking_id: String = "" var order_date: Date = Date.now var updated: Date = Date.now var delivery_date: Date? var active: Bool = true var createdAt: Date = Date.now var items: [OrderItem]? @Relationship(deleteRule: .nullify) var invoice: InvoiceModel? @Relationship(deleteRule: .nullify) var customer: CustomerModel? init() {} } both referenced in this model: @Model final class InvoiceModel{ var id: String = UUID().uuidString var status: String = "Pending" var comment: String = "" var dueDate: Date = Date.now var createdAt: Date = Date.now var updated: Date = Date.now var amount: Double = 0.0 var paymentTerms: String = "Once" var paymentMethod: String = "" var paymentDates: [Date] = [] var numOfPayments: Int = 1 @Relationship(deleteRule: .nullify, inverse: \OrderModel.invoice) var order: OrderModel? @Relationship(deleteRule: .nullify) var customer: CustomerModel? init() {} } This is my modelContainer in my index structure: @main struct Aje: App { var appContainer: ModelContainer = { let schema = Schema([UserModel.self, TaskModel.self, SubtaskModel.self, InventoryModel.self, SupplierModel.self]) let config = ModelConfiguration(schema: schema, isStoredInMemoryOnly: false, allowsSave: true, groupContainer: .automatic, cloudKitDatabase: .automatic) do{ return try ModelContainer(for: schema, configurations: [config]) }catch{ fatalError("An error has occured: \(error)") } }() var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } .modelContainer(appContainer) } } This works fine but the below after adding the problematic models crashes the app unless CloudKit is disabled @main struct Aje: App { var appContainer: ModelContainer = { let schema = Schema([UserModel.self, TaskModel.self, SubtaskModel.self, InventoryModel.self, SupplierModel.self, InvoiceModel.self, OrderModel.self, CustomerModel.self]) let config = ModelConfiguration(schema: schema, isStoredInMemoryOnly: false, allowsSave: true, groupContainer: .automatic, cloudKitDatabase: .automatic) do{ return try ModelContainer(for: schema, configurations: [config]) }catch{ fatalError("An error has occured: \(error)") } }() var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } .modelContainer(appContainer) } }

Xcode Cloud - "What to test" contents does not show up in TestFlight
I'm using Xcode cloud to create testflight builds, and I noticed that a few weeks ago these builds no longer contain any "What to Test" info. We include a TestFlight/WhatToTest.de-DE.txt file in our repo, and that file seems to be picked up correctly, at least the logs say Saving “What to test” notes Found notes for de-DE Any ideas of what I should be looking into or change?

Xcode Cloud on Apple Silicon any time soon?
I'm currently using another provider for CI/CD. They've been offering Apple Silicon builds for over a year now. When we switched over, we saw our build times cut in half. I've seen similar results locally, back when I bought an M1 Mac. So, recently, I tried to use Xcode Cloud on my project. My build time is nearly 45 minutes, where my build time on my current system is about 15 minutes, max. Since I work on a team, and we make regular commits, having a 45 minute turnaround is not ideal. When I looked at the logs of my Xcode Cloud project, I saw a lot "x86_64" stuff in there, which led me to believe that Xcode Cloud is still building on Intel machines. Additionally, I run tests on my builds. The build time alone (before running tests) was almost 20 minutes. The 15-minute time I cited with my current CI/CD included build time & tests running. So, a whole cycle finishes on my current setup before tests are even run. I noticed that there was a bunch of x86_64 in the logs, which made me think that Xcode Cloud is still using Intel. Is this true? I've just gotten really used to faster build times, and I can't move onto a system like this, where the times are so drastically different. Like, I wouldn't mind build time that would add only a few more minutes to what I have now. But going from 15 -> 45 minutes is a real problem.

UI Tests with mock server
I'm using Xcode Cloud for release builds and unit tests, and it works fine. Recently, I added some XCUITests, but to run it the way I need I started to use this mock server. Basically, the idea is you define before each test what responses you want to get for specific requests. It works like a charm locally. But if I want to run it in Xcode Cloud, it looks like the server has failed to launch. The mock server is a separately launched binary file. I think this is because this permission I get when launch it locally. So, my question is how to allow this kind of permission in Xcode Cloud to make my UITests works correctly? You can find a detailed instruction how server is launched on a github page I provided.

Unable to use Xcode Cloud - "does not have a remote repository"
I have an existing project, that's hosted in a self-hosted gitlab instance. Git works through terminal just fine (and has for years!) and the Source Control Navigator pane in Xcode shows the remote repository. However when I try to setup Xcode cloud I get a warning that there's the project does not hav a remote repository. I've tried clearing derived data, cleaning the build folder, restarting to no avail. I even tried creating a new project in Xcode, and having Xcode create the remote repository (which it did successfully). But no matter what I try it will not recognize the remote repository. I've also tried adding another remote origin, and I can see it just fine in the Xcode Source Control pane, but the Xcode cloud setup does not recognize it. Any suggestions?
