Step 1:

Set ‘Code Signing Identity’ = ‘Don’t Code Sign’ · Select Targets (‘’) -> Build Settings and find the ‘Signing’ section. · Set ‘Code Signing Identity’ = ‘Don’t Code Sign’

Setp 2:

Set Bundle Identifier = ‘com.testCompany.prjectname’ Set Version = 1.0 Set Build = 5 Remove ‘Automatically manage singing’ flag.

Step 3:

Open terminal and go to the project root folder. Then run the following command.

xcodebuild -workspace <projectName>.xcworkspace -scheme <projectName> -configuration Release clean archive -archivePath buildArchive/<projectName>.xcarchive CODE_SIGN_IDENTITY=”” CODE_SIGNING_REQUIRED=NO

Step 4:

After successfully completing above command, it will create a new ‘.xcarchive’ file inside ‘buildArchive’ folder ( the ‘buildArchive’ folder create inside your project folder) Zip that ‘.xcarchive’ file and send it to your team agent.
