Does Enabling CloudKit in Your App affects current app in Appstore?

Question

I need to enable iCloud feature in my current app which has an existing version in AppStore.

What I can see from enabling the iCloud,

Is making my existing provisioning Invalid,

The Invalid is making me worried, Will it effect my existing app in AppStore.

Note* I have tried the above in demo project.

@MuseerAnsari: Thank you, May I know why the existing profiles are getting invalid, Is there any official documentation where this(invalid not affecting the official app) is addressed ? — Bharath, Jan 11 '18 at 07:14

In short No, it won't affect any of your existing apps on the App Store.

Modifying/Deleting any App-ID, Provisioning Profile or Certificate has no effect what so ever once you have submitted the App.

However, you will have to use the new configuration for your next release.

Thank you, also just to know wether it will have any effects on push notification in live since its associated with the app id (capabilities) ? – Bharath Jan 11 '18 at 07:24
No, it will not affect that as well. – atulkhatri Jan 11 '18 at 07:31
