Since today we got a message in ASC that our account needs to be migrated to federated auth and will be migrated in 8 days automatically; however we got no information about this and the "Learn More" link goes to Quip (??) which tries to do what I assume is a SSO login with apple but ends up at a dead link.

Does anyone have more information about this? The very limited things I could find point to potentially a bug in ASC but that is all conjecture right now.

Thanks in Advance && Greetings

I have the same message. - I don't know what it means and the "perform now" link does not open. - "Learn More" goes to Quip as well for me. - I'm not part of Apple. A developer friend of mine does not have this message. That's all I know so far.

This is also being discussed here:

I am having the same problem as well. If I start the process I get this error "{"data":null,"messages":{"warn":null,"error":["Not Found"],"info":null},"statusCode":"ERROR"}" If I click the learn more option the lick directs me to quick of which if I try to verify I get an error saying "Please enter an apple.com email address". I'm stuck now because it seems because of that reason I am not receiving a request to accept an App transfer from another account.

I have the same message and also don't know what it means.
But as other developers seem to be surprised by this as well, it could be a technical issue on Apple's site.

I have got the same message. "Perform now" doesn't work and "Learn More" goes to Quip and then to nowhere.

Seeing this as well. Never heard of "Quip", nor "Federated Auth" - this all seems very fishy, given the lack of information provided.

Has App Store Connect been hacked?

Accepted Answer
At least in our ASC account the message now has disappeared, so given the questions here I assume this was a bug with a slightly concerning message and nothing more, the Stackoverflow discussion also contains an Apple Support response at https://stackoverflow.com/a/63506812/605221

Today I checked my account and I found out that the message has just disappeared. I think it was just a bug
