Demo - How To Create IOS Development Provision Profile Step By Step With Example.
In this video, we will show you how to create IOS provision profile in MAC for IOS development. We will use keychain tool to generate the IOS profile. A apple developer account is needed.
What is Provision Profile?
A provisioning profile is a collection of digital entities that uniquely ties developers and devices to an authorized iPhone Development Team and enables a device to be used for testing.
Why Provisioning Profiles?
Unlike Android, you can’t install any app on an iOS device. It has to be signed by Apple first. However, when you’re developing an app, you probably want to test it before sending it to Apple for approval. Provisioning profile act as a link between the device and the developer account. During development, you choose which devices can run your app and which app services your app can access. A provisioning profile is downloaded from your developer account and embedded in the app bundle, and the entire bundle is code-signed. A Development Provisioning Profile must be installed on each device on which you wish to run your application code. If the information in the provisioning profile doesn’t match certain criteria, your app won’t launch.
What does Development Provisioning Profile contains:
1. Development Certificates — development certificate. These are for developers who want to test the app on a physical device while writing code.
2. Unique Device Identifiers (List of devices that the app can run on)
3. an App ID (this can include a * wild card to be used for many applications with similar bundle identifiers). — An App ID is a two-part string used to identify one or more apps from a single development team.
What is happening when we connect the device to xcode and installs the app??
When you install the application on a device the following things happens:
1. the provisioning profile in the Mac goes to the developer certificate in your key chain.
2. xcode uses the certificate to sign the code.
3. device’s UUID is matched with the IDs in the provisioning profile.
4. AppID in the provisioning profile is matched with the bundle identifier in the app.
5. The entitlements required are associated with the App ID.
6. The private key used to sign the app matches the public key in the certificate.
Steps to Generate IOS Provision Profile?
1. Create a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) through the Keychain Access Application.
2. Keychain Application will create a private key(private key will be stored in the keychain) and a certSigningRequest file which you’ll then upload to Apple.
3. Apple will proof the request and issue a certificate for you. The Certificate will contain the public key that can be downloaded to your system. After you downloaded it you need to put it into your Keychain Access Application by double clicking it. The Certificate will be pushed into the Keychain and paired with the private key to form the Code Signing Identity.
4. Finally, at the time of app installation, the private key used to sign the app matches the public key in the certificate. If it fails, app is not installed.
Supported versions:
These installation instructions will work on all latest / core versions of MacOS (including Snow Leopard, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, Yosemite, El Capitan, Sierra, High Sierra, Mojave, Catalina, Big Sur, plus MacOS Server)
