BRContainerIsDocumentScopePublic in info.plist?

Hi folks,


I got an issue with an iCloud Drive app folder not being syched to macOS, although it is working fine between iOS apps. I spent a DTS ticket, provided sample code, did some testing with the DTS engineer and filed two corresponding radars ... the only possible workaround seemed to be a companion macOS app, leaving my Windows customers in the dark (not tested yet).


Now I received a response to one of my radars (#30248725) as follows:

This issue behaves as intended based on the following:


From the attached project’s plist file it doesn’t appear that BRContainerIsDocumentScopePublic is set to true.

Please update your bug report to let us know if this is still an issue for you.


I never read about this key in any of Apple’s documentations and Google didn’t find a single reference. I do know „NSUbiquitousContainerIsDocumentScopePublic“ (and included it in the info.plist)...


Has anybody some more information about the key's purpose and how it is specified (at root level or nested in some dict)? I also commented the bug report, but - so far - without any response…


Greetings, Mattes
