Distribute client app update to app store without the certificate


I've done an app update for a client.

He previously work with another external dev, and have no access to the certificate private key.

Using xCode, (as team member), looks like a can get the client provisioning profile, but not the Distribution certificate.

What are the solution, Are the client have to create a new one?

Thanks!


Solution

  • It is not possible to build an app for the app store without the certificate. As @Shubhank says, you'll have to revoke the certificate and create a new one.
