We have an ios app managed through testflight which has an expired provisioning profile. We have generated a new profile in the apple developer portal, downloaded it, and uploaded to testflight, under the specific build (using permissions, add/update profile.) The uploaded profile is saved, and appears in a green notification in testflight. However, when trying to open the app from a device, a message is shown stating that the provisioning profile for this build has expired.
Is it necessary to re-compile the app and upload a new build to testflight? Or is it possible to somehow have the app utilize the new provisioning profile without a new build?
Yes it's necessary to recompile unfortunatelly.
