How to create an ipa output in Xcode 11.1

Question

I want to create an ipa output for the Firebase App Distribution service.

I have tried to archive the project. Clicked "Distribute Content" and tried both "Built Products" and "Archive" options.

The archive option creates xcarchive file. Built Products creates an app file.

I want to get an ipa file and upload it to Firebase console.

Here is what I tried with images below.

First I create and archive and it opens the Organizer window as below.

Then I select the distribute button on the right. It shows me two options.

The first option is the "Built Products" option. I tried it as below and it asked me for a location to save files.

It creates the folder structure below, you can also see within the images, the names of the outputted files.

Please note that my question is for XCode version 11.1 on macOS Catalina

Please show us what you have tried and explain why it does not do what you require. — Dragonthoughts, Nov 04 '19 at 13:10

@dahiya_boy The option is already on "NO" for the "skip install" setting. So, no help from that answer too. — Emre Kemal, Nov 06 '19 at 15:00
Unable to build my app. While archiving the app, build failed with Xcode failed to show notification. Any solutions? — sejn, Mar 17 '20 at 04:08
