Can't compile open source project in xcode

Hi there. I just downloaded Xcode 12...
then I signed up for a developer account.
I added my Apple ID... and the correct information about my name / profile appears under Xcode --> Preferences --> Accounts. when I select my Apple ID, under the team / role section, I see my name (Personal Team) and "User" as the role.

When I click on manage certificates, I see an entry for my Mac mini. I can't seem to add / remove anything there.

But when I try to build my project, I get an error that says that no account for team "XXXXXXX" (some random number) was found.

and it also says I don't have a signing cert. I have my own team number but I don't where / how to associate it with Xcode. any help would be appreciated
