This seems like a straightforward authorisation error. The best way to debug such problems is to use the --list-providers command in altool. That command doesn’t require any inputs (other than your credentials, of course) and thus, if it fails, you know that you have a credentials problem.

So, run this command:

Code Block  % xcrun altool --list-providers CCC

replacing CCC with your credentials. Does that work?

what is the exact format of credentials here?

It varies depends on how you choose to authenticate. The three most common options are:

App-specific password on the command line (A)
App-specific password in the keychain (B)
API key (C)

Customizing the Notarization Workflow covers option B. Option A is a simplification of that process, where you replace --password "@keychain:AC_PASSWORD" with --password "PPP", where PPP is the app-specific password itself.

WARNING Passing passwords on the command line like this is considered poor form security-wise. It is, however, super useful when debugging. And once you get everything sorted out you can revoke that app-specific password and create a new one for your long-term use.

For info on option C, run altool with the -h option. Create the API key using the instructions in Creating API Keys for App Store Connect API.
