When developing a CloudKit application, the standard recommendation is to create an iCloud account for testing. That makes a lot of sense as I’d like to keep developing code far from my personal iCloud account. But the CloudKit Dashboard won’t let me view the private database for that account. What do other people do to check their work?
* clarification: I mean on the development server, not the production server.
You can check the private database for the one account of the developer who openned the CloudKit dashboard.
I could, if I logged into my simulator's iCloud using my own account. The CK docs recommend using a test account, which doesn't square with the security rules. I prefer not to use my account because that just increases the risk I might ***** up my personal production database data. Guess I'm just being paranoid.
Fortunately, I don't need atomicity so I can use the public database and a test account for now.
Usually a Apple developer account is different from the Personal Apple account
Normally you would only be able to see only your own private data (meaning only the Apple Developer account's data)
