In app purchase maximum limit - ios

I heard that apple is newly offer additional 10,000 items for the in app purchase products (Beside the original 10,000 items) .. if that is correct how can I achieve that ?
Thanks

Login to itunes connect. In the bottom panel, click contact us.
In resulting dropdown, select 'Manage your in app purchases'.
In second dropdown, select 'Eligible for in app purchase'.
This will open a section with relavent links in apple documentation.
If this does not answer it, there will be one more 'Contact us' link which will directly take you to a question form that will be submitted directly to Apple customer care. That should be your final place for the answer.

Is there any API exists which we can configure to our admin panel and course will automatically added to In-App?
Please help me and save my life...
There are four steps to add multiple IAPs to iTunes Connect using the Application Loader (Version 3.0 at the time of writing):
Open the Application Loader and access the template via the menu
"File" --> "Open App Import Template". Copy the template somewhere
else and open it with Excel or something similar.
Add all your IAP Information and save the file as a .txt. (Leave the
screenshot column empty.)
Create a directory where you add screenshots for each IAP. The
filename should match the product id of the IAP item. Example:
"com.companyname.appname.productId.png".
Use the import function of the Application Loader, where you will
provide the .txt and will be asked for the screenshots.
If everything goes well your IAPs are now added and you can open iTunes Connect to submit them for review.
Hope this will help you. or you can use some command line tool provided by iTunes connect called Transporter. more details here http://itunespartner.apple.com/en/movies/faq/Transporter_Getting%20Set%20Up#!
Unfortunately, there is nothing like that. You have to manually create product identifiers for in-app purchase. The product identifiers for which added in portal, those only works.

Can't create initial in-app purchase on iTunes Connect because list of product types is empty

This is my first time adding an in-app purchase into my brand new iOS app that has not been published yet. I'm trying (and failing) to add a new "product" (i.e. in-app purchase) into iTunes Connect. I've read every thread I can find on stack-overflow and used my favorite search engine quite extensively. Haven't found any posts that are similar.
Here's what I've tried:
Go into iTunes Connect and select the app I'm working on
Go to the "Features" tab on the top of the User interface
Select the "In-App Purchases" on the left side of the User interface
Click on the (+) button next to the text that says "In-App Purchases" in the content area of the page
Result: I get a nice popup that says "Select the In-App Purchase you want to create", with an empty list. Only the Cancel button is enabled because there is nothing in the list to select (see screenshot below). I expected to see a list of in-app purchase types like "subscription", "consumable", etc.
Other background that may or may not be relevant, but seems to come up a lot in the threads I have read:
My app has never been submitted, its status is "Prepare for Submission"
I do not have a wildcard in my appID
My AppID shows the In-App Purchase "Application Service" as Enabled for Development and Distribution
My user Role is Admin
Thanks for any help!
You need to go to 'Agreements, Tax and Banking' inside iTunes Connect and request and agree to the Paid Applications agreement. Then you should fill in the contact, bank and tax info.
Once this is done, the In-App Purchase types should be listed as they are supposed to.
Important requirement is an iTunes Connect user with an Admin or App Manager role, sign in to iTunes Connect to add in-app purchase. Once logged in and clicked in screen. You will get below screen. Does your ID has correct credentials?
Clear your browser cache ( try using different browser ). Logout/login again?

App store submission, metadata rejected because of chat room option

"We are reviewing your app and have found issues with the following guideline:
3.8
We found that the rating you've selected is not consistent with the content of your app, as required by the App Store Review Guidelines.
Since your application offers a chat room option, this should be reflected in the frequency choice in the Ratings section.
To update the rating you must edit the App details in iTunes Connect. Select Manage Your Applications, open the App Details view and click on Edit Information. From the Edit Application view, select the Ratings tab and select the desired rating. Don't forget to save your changes when done.
If your iTunes Connect Application State is Metadata Rejected, we do NOT require a new binary. In iTunes Connect > Manage Your Applications, select your app and click View Details.
Click Edit in the Metadata section
Revise the desired metadata values
Click "Save" at the bottom of the screen
Once you click Save, you will see the "Submit New Metadata" button in the top right. Click "Submit New Metadata"
I viewed the Review Guidelines, and looked at the metadata, and I still have no idea which part should I change. Which frequency option do I have to change?
You need to change the section for giving your app a rating (4+, 13+, 17+, etc.). You need to choose a different rating because it seems that you did not mention chat room capabilities in your application. Follow the instructions that Apple gave you and just modify your rating.

Select a frequency/intensity level for each Apple content description iTunes Connect error

I have uploaded my one app in Apple Store, its live. Now i need to send metadata for the new version of the same app. But before uploading new binary for second version, i need to change large app icon (1024x1024). Currently my new version app status is "Prepare for Upload" and first version app status is "Ready for sale" on iTunes connect. Now after clicking on edit option in Version Information section. I have changed the app large logo successfully..but when i am clicking on save button then its not saving properly, and i am getting below error :
Select a frequency/intensity level for each Apple content description.
I have checked this link also : How do you change the app store's large icon on iTunes connect?
I think this error related to Ratings, i have given all the ratings of Apple content description as None (Total 4+ Ratings). Please help me to solve this error. I have attached screenshot for reference.. Thanks
If you couldn't find edit button for age rating like me in the app information page, It is in the preparing for submission page.
The alert indicates you have not filled all the Rating - Apple Content Descriptions which is below in your screenshot.
Let's go quick to the answer you need and then to the explanation. When you update your app, you have to check some checkboxes that are not by default:
As you can see in the image, my app has three rating fields that are empty: Medical / Treatment information, Unrestricted Web Access and Gambling and Contests.
You should check those for your app.
Now for the longer explanation:
In the case that you have filled all data, then I recommend to switch to another Internet browser, since it could also be a problem with processing the data you are submitting.
By the way, Apple changed the section. You may have received an e-mail:
There have been several recent changes that may impact the content rating of your apps. These changes give users more information about your apps and help ensure legal compliance.
New App Content Descriptions
You can now use the following descriptions: Medical/Treatment Information, Gambling and Contests, and Unrestricted Web Access (for apps that permit navigating and viewing web pages, for example with an embedded browser).
Update to Territory-Specific Restrictions Based on Rating
Territory-specific restrictions in the Korea, Brazil, United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia App Stores have changed. You can see the current rating and territory restrictions for your apps in Manage Your Apps on iTunes Connect.
New Rating System for the Brazil App Store
In case you had difficulty finding the ratings section in the new iTunes Connect:
In the new iTunes Connect (2014) under the versions tab, scroll down to General App Information where you will see a small section titled Rating with a blue button titled edit. Tapping this button will bring up the Ratings section where you must make sure all fields are check-boxed. See attached screenshot
As described in the alert (Red text), make sure you have selected either of the options for all Content Descriptions.
Go to General -> App Information -> General App Information -> Age Rating -> Edit

Possible to limit the countries an iOS application is released to?

Is it possible to limit the countries an iOS application is released to? Is it possible to limit a version to a certain country?
If so, where could I find more information. I attempted searching the documentation but was unable to locate decisive information regarding this. Thanks in advance.
Yes, you can control which App Stores you app is sold in. This can be done in iTunes Connect.
First, choose your app from your App Dashboard. Next, look for "Rights and Pricing" in the top right corner.
Next, scroll down. You will see a link to sell in specific countries.
After clicking on that link, you will be able to select which stores your app is for sale in.
In App Store Connect as of March 2021
1. Click your app dropdown
2. Click Pricing and Availability,
Under Availability click EDIT
you'll see
Yes, you can set the stores it will be available in when you upload. It's under one of the tabs, where you set the price.
You can select the territories where you want your app to be available
on the App Store.
By default, all countries or regions are selected, but you can
deselect territories where you don’t want your app for sale.
