As of Nov 25, 2024, Xcode 16.1 won't recognize an App Store provisional profile as Eligible so you cannot select the provisional profile for signing. Which means you cannot archive it for upload to Apple. Setting it to manual or automatic signing does not help. Even going to the dev site and making new, fresh provisional profiles did not work. rebooting xcode did not work. rebooting the computer did not work.
I should add that for release, xcode will only recognize the Dev profile for release signing. but when you upload that build, apple rejects it. of course it would.
I also updated PUSH certs and then created new provisional profiles for Ad Hoc, Dev, and App Store. No luck on releasing the App to App Store because it won't let me sign using the App Store profile.
I used both profiles for before Xcode 11 and after Xcode 11.
