With the new apple rule explained at https://developer.apple.com/support/account/authentication/:
In an effort to keep your account more secure, two-factor authentication will be required for Account Holders of a developer program to sign in to their Apple Developer account and Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles starting February 27, 2019. This extra layer of security for your Apple ID helps ensure that you're the only person who can access your account.
I am getting the following error when trying to publish my iOS app on the store through the CI at https://appcenter.ms :
{
"mandatory_update": false,
"release_notes": "feature/navigator profile (#467)",
"destinations": [
{
"id": "678b39eb-7040-43ca-b903-REDACTED",
"name": "App Store Connect Users",
"message": "Failed to publish to store. Error: App specific password is mandatory for 2fa enabled account in service connection id: 5b1a378c-d7bc-4492-5ad6-REDACTED",
"code": "app_specific_password_missing"
}
],
"code": "partially_succeeded",
"message": "Failed to publish to store. Error: App specific password is mandatory for 2fa enabled account in service connection id: 5b1a378c-d7bc-4492-5ad6-REDACTED"
}
I have looked everywhere online and crawled around the different menus without finding anything of interest.
Do you know where I should enter my app-specific password?
You can follow the instructions here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/appcenter/distribution/stores/apple#adding-two-factor-authentication
Specifically:
Adding Two-factor authentication
If your Apple account has two-factor authentication enabled, App Store Connect requires an app-specific password as security. You can add an App-specific password to your account by navigating to Developer accounts in your Account settings.
