Cannot create App ID

Since I use my company name as the App ID, I am pretty sure that is unique. However, when I try to add that under Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles, I got an error message:

An attribute in the provided entity has invalid value An App ID with Identifier 'com.***.yyy' is not available. Please enter a different string.

The other ID is ok. If I use that same ID ""com.***.yyy in local development, will it be the reason why I cannot register now?

Thanks!

The most common cause of this is developers who are members of multiple teams and use the bundle ID with the ‘wrong’ team. For example:

  1. You’re a member of your own individual team (Team ID III) and a member of your work team (Team ID WWW).

  2. You create an initial version of your app using your individual team. This registers the App ID III.com.example.my-app.

  3. You then go to work on the app for real. This tries to register WWW.com.example.my-app but that fails because the bundle ID isn’t unique.

The fix is to find the person who registered the bundle ID in the ‘wrong’ team and shoot them politely ask them to delete that App ID. Remember that you can delete an App ID as long as the app was never uploaded to App Store Connect.

If you can’t find the team that registered the App ID then the only real option is to change your bundle ID. Again, this shouldn’t be too onerous because the app hasn’t been published to the App Store.

When you got to the Developer > Account > Certificates, Identifies & Profiles > Identifiers, it’ll ask you to log in. Once you’re logged in, if your Apple ID is a member of multiple teams, you can switch between them using the menu at the top right of the window.
