Failed retrieving request UUID for upload

I get the following error "Failed retrieving request UUID for upload" when I try to upload a new build for the Apple Notary service.. everything worked smoothly so far. I have this issue for more than 24 hours now... What I tried so far:

  1. T&C are accepted up to date
  2. I tried to generate multiple builds with different build numbers as well...

The same thing is happening to me.

Also running into this.. no luck finding a solution so far

+1 also having this issue

On Apple System Status looks like the Notary system is up and running but I have the same issue... tested a few minutes ago.

App Store Connect Operation Error Failed retreiving request UUID for upload

I got the exact same issue !

Clearly the notary service had a bad day yesterday but, according to the system status page, that should be resolved now. I have some questions for folks who are still having problems:

  • Are you using Xcode? Or altool? Or the shiny new notarytool? [1]

  • If you’re using Xcode, what version?

Also, if you’re using Xcode, please retry with either altool (or notarytool). Historically there have been a number of cases where:

  • Xcode fails but altool works, or

  • altool gives a more meaningful error, helping to resolve the problem

@eskimo Hey :) I tried using XCode 12.5 and after that I updated to XCode 12.5.1 and I had the same issue. I will try with altool

I fixed this by agreeing to the new contracts on both the developer account website and App Store Connect. 🙄🙄

Go to App Store Connect and agree to the new Paid Applications Agreement.

Q: Is there a way to delete a post? The UI of this forum confused me and I ended up posting duplicates, expecting I could delete my older posts.

A: No, you can't. You have to live with that mistake.

Q: Nah. I edit my post to remind others of that issue.

It's working.. finally

I'm getting this error right now. Everything is agreed yet getting this error.

I'm getting this error right now.

OK. Presumably you’re looking for help with that. If so:

  • How are you notarising your product? Xcode? altool? notarytool?

  • If it’s one of the first two, try running a test notarisation using notarytool. Does that help?

If you’re using altool and notarytool fixes the problem, switch to notarytool permanently. altool has been deprecated for the purposes of notarisation. notarytool is better, stronger, and faster. For the details, see WWDC 2021 Session 10261 Faster and simpler notarization for Mac apps.

Purple's suspicion that multiple organizations may be involved may be correct. My account belonged to two organizations. One active (mine), one inactive (someone else's) and likely not up to date on contracts.

When I removed myself from the inactive organization the whole process (Xcode and Organizer) worked fine. Only the active account was used in the process.Maybe I got lucky. For the last few days the process was hit and miss. About 90% misses.
