We’re starting to use Fastlane for automated deployment, and it’s a very impressive toolset.

One mystery, though: When submitting a BETA build to Apple’s TestFlight, how do you pass in the Demo Account credentials (username and password)? The docs don’t seem to say.

There seem to be a couple of clues here: https://github.com/fastlane/fastlane/blob/master/spaceship/lib/spaceship/test_flight/beta_review_info.rb https://github.com/fastlane/fastlane/blob/master/spaceship/spec/test_flight/app_test_info_spec.rb

And there does seem to be a way to pass in this info for actual App Store submissions: https://github.com/fastlane/fastlane/blob/master/deliver/Deliverfile.md [see app_review_information] ... but not for TestFlight betas.

How do you do the equivalent for BETA uploads?

Thank you very much!

You need to use Appfile, pilot use it like deliver

Here is the doc. https://docs.fastlane.tools/advanced/#control-configuration-by-lane-and-by-platform

My Appfile for ex. is:

app_identifier ENV["app_identifierEnterprise"] # The bundle identifier of your app
apple_id ENV["accountAppleId"] # Your Apple email address
team_name ENV["teamNameEnterprise"]
team_id ENV["teamIdEnterprise"]

for_platform :ios do

    for_lane :releaseBeta do
        app_identifier ENV["app_identifier"]
        apple_id ENV["accountAppleId"]
        team_name ENV["teamName"]
        team_id ENV["teamId"]
    end
end

I use .env (a file to set this variables), but you just need to replace ENV[""] with "ValueYouWant"

Hope this helps.
