App Clip Advanced Experiences don't get published

We have an app with a few App Clip Advanced Experiences. Since around 28th of August the status of the experiences seems to be stuck in either CREATE_SUBMITTED or UPDATE_SUBMITTED and they don't get updated to PUBLISHED anymore.

I found this in the experiences JSON loaded by AppStoreConnect when editing the experiences:

"statuses": {
    "doc_count_error_upper_bound": 0,
    "sum_other_doc_count": 0,
    "buckets": [
        {
            "key": "PUBLISHED",
            "doc_count": 182
        },
        {
            "key": "CREATE_SUBMITTED",
            "doc_count": 7
        },
        {
            "key": "UPDATE_SUBMITTED",
            "doc_count": 3
        }
    ]
},

This shows that 10 experiences are stuck in other status than PUBLISHED.

I created a Feedback with ID FB15041208 and a DTS last week.

This is REALLY important for us to be fixed immediately since we have customers that rely on this!

To add to this: the status shown in the list of Advanced Experiences is always "Received" even though it's not in the experiences JSON.

How long does it usually take for App clips to take effect, after the full app is released on the App Store? My full app has been available for a day on app store, but the Diagnostics shows that the app clips have not been published on the app store.

@mr_app Where did you ask if I can ask? Did you get acknowledgement somewhere? It looks like the Apple engineers are currently not aware and this is considered an end-user issue, but it looks like their propagation is affected.

I did use one of my two technical support slots today to hopefully have someone look into it. My app relies on App Clips and it is the reason why I bought my Developer License in the first place, so I hope they can solve this shortly as I need to meet client deadlines.

Update on my case: code level support just redirected me to my feedback report… which got closed because they wanted me to include a screen recording of the issue (I did post a screen shot of the diagnostics output but apparently that wasn’t enough). Not sure what else to give them, I don’t think they really read the report as they indicate there are no similar reports while multiple people on this forum have been complaining with their feedback report. Hope your outreach goes smoother

I haven’t received a direct response from Apple yet, but as of this morning, the Advanced Experiences feature is working for me again! How is it working for the rest of you?

I'm having this same exact issue. My app clips have been stuck in "Received" state for weeks with no approval or sign of approval, even while my app with those app clips has been approved.

We have also submitted an app update after adding an Advanced App Clip Experience. The app update was approved the same day, but the App Clip Experience is still simply "Received" two days later.

The App Clip Diagnostics states that "No Advanced Experience is registered for this URL."

Are the app and App Clip review processes decoupled if the App Clip Experience is still "Received" after the app update itself was approved?

When should we expect a "Received" App Clip Experience to transition to "Published"?

I'm having this same issue as well. My app clip experience is stuck in the received status after nearly a week. Are there any updates here/anything I can do to move it along?
