[ios]Archive files uploaded from App Store Connect are not visible - ios

I created an archive for app release.
But no matter how much time passes, nothing appears in the build window.
What should I do
+)I have a Team and make a identifier, certificate for team.
I even uploaded the archive file successfully.
But in App store connect, Nothing is shown.

This may happen if your uploaded archive couldn't pass through the initial processing of the build that occurs as soon as it is uploaded.
I once got stuck with this because my app had some legacy code that was using UIWebview which is now deprecated.
You'll always receive some comment from apple if this happens (through email).

Invalid Swift Support in post processing with Codemagic

I´m trying to upload an app with Codemagic and it goes wrong in the post processing stage App Store distribution, after almost 30 tries to find a build matching uploaded version yet, says this:
The application binary was successfully uploaded to App Store Connect for processing but the corresponding build is not available in App Store Connect. This usually happens when the uploaded application has one or more issues. Please check your email for direct feedback from Apple.
And they send me a mail saying:
"Swift Support it´s invalid: The SwiftSupport floder is missing. Rebuild your app using the current public (GM) version of Xcode and resubmit it."
I tried changing the "Embedded Content Contains Swift Code", the "BUILD_LIBRARY_FOR_DISTRIBUTION" and the "DEFINES_MODULE" fields but nothing change. Don´t know if its a problem of Codemagic or Apple.
Try changing the version code and uploading again, it happened to me too. However, uploading a new build seemed to work without issues. App Store Connect team revealed that there was a brief issue where some apps received this error.

issue submitting app for review - already submitted

So i have uploaded the app via xcode however when i go to submit the app via appstoreconnect.apple.com i get the following error.
but when i go to re-upload it, seems it is already uploaded. So what have I missed.
It says it has been delivered - is there a processing time?
The answer is right on the screen in the image you uploaded. You've already uploaded a binary with the same BUILD #.
Log into iTunes Connect and either select the uploaded build... it will take a few minutes to process before it is available, OR if you have invalidated that and are uploading a new one. Go to you Project in Xcode and on the General Tab for the Target, bump the build number.

New App Not Showing up in iTunes Connect

I have just created a new app in iTunes Connect. After it was created, my Browser crashed and I had to restart it. After I logged in to iTunes Connect, my newly created app wasn't visible.
I have also created an App ID in the Apple Developer Programm and thought to delete everything in the Apple Developer Section and recreate it.
When I want to delete my App ID, an error message occurs:
The App ID 'xxx' appears to be in use by the App Store, so it can not be removed at this time.
Now I can't delete my App ID and I can't see the created App in iTunes Connect?
Can anybody help to solve this problem?
This is a bug, you might think is related to your browser crash but it might not.
There are two things that you can try:
1.- If you haven't uploaded any Build yet, you can try uploading one, from XCode or App Loader doesn't matter, just upload a build and after some minutes see if your app finally gets to appear in list.
2.- If you happen to have more apps(any status), you can click on one of them to see the detail, and check if this missing app appears on the top App list, as in the image below:
This appears to be happening to more people: Apple Forums

Is there any tool to simulate an app store upload and show errors?

I'm working on an app on iOS, but I'm not the one who publish it on the app store. So each time I have to send the build to the third party who try to upload it and come back to me with upload errors. This way, we are both wasting time and the release is delayed.
Is there any tool that would allow me to see if there is any "TRC" error on the build before sending to the third party?
You can try to use the "Validate..." feature in the Xcode Organizer (Window -> Organizer) to identify any issues with your binary ahead of you sending it to the third party.
Note: This will require some level of access to the third party's iTunes Connect account. Additionally, it will require that the application is actually created in iTunes Connect with a matching bundle identifier.
I'm guessing, without actually trying it, that this permission will align with "Upload Builds" in this screenshot, so you would need Developer, App Manager, Admin, or Legal:
Here's one way to "preflight" the entire submission procedure:
In your own personal Developer account on iTunes Connect, create a dummy app with a dummy bundle ID. Temporarily change the bundle ID and owner of your client's app to this dummy ID, build, and upload to your own Developer account (not the client's). After the Validation and upload succeeds 100%, delete this build from your iTC app version (so you can re-use the dummy bundle ID as many times as needed). Throw away the dummy app archive, and send the identical (except for bundle ID) app to your client.
You can even copy all the client's My App : App Information and Version Details to your dummy app entry to see if that causes any problems when hitting "Save" in iTunes Connect. Even if you hit "Submit" by accident, you can always reject this submitted build to reuse your dummy app ID.

Confusion over Validation and Ad-Hoc Distribution of iOS app

I have created my first iOS app for the iPhone, as part of my MSc project
I don't want to upload it to the App Store but rather convert it into a file that the examiners can use to check my app on their own devices.
Therefore I need to save my app for Ad-Hoc deployment
I created an archive of my Xcode project and then followed these steps suggested by Apple
A myProject.ipa file was created on my Hard Drive. Is this enough ?
Is this all I need to send the examiner so that they can install the app in their own iPhone?
because,
I noticed there was also a button called Validate on top of the Distribute button (I only pressed that to create the .ipa file) in the Archive Organizer
So I went back to the Archive Organizer, chose my archive once again and clicked on Validate and I got :
No Application Records were found
Applications must be ready for upload on iTunes Connect before they
can be validated or submitted from within Xcode.
I went to my iTunes Connect account and it is obviously empty, i.e. I haven't submitted any apps to the AppStore.But I want to validate my app nonetheless, before sending it to the examiner to see if it meets all requirements (even if it is now working fine on my own device - just to be sure).
So what does the above message mean? Do I necessarily have to sumbit my app to iTunes connect (i.e. the AppStore) in order for it to be validated?
And also, should an app first be validated in order to run on other devices as part of an Ad-Hoc distribution?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Validation is only for when you are submitting your app to the App Store. The reason you are getting the "No Application Records were found" message is because for submitting to the App Store, you actually have to create an App Submission in iTunes Connect first and get all of the metadata entered.
XCode queries for that record so that it can associate the project you are building.
For Ad-Hoc distribution, you need to make sure that the examiners devices are added in the distribution profile that you used when creating the archive. You can then just give them the .ipa and they can install via iTunes.
