The process of IOS shelves can be summarized briefly as:

A package, two URLs, three certificates,

A package: IPA package, shelves used.

Two URLs: 1>https://itunesconnect.apple.com

2>https://developer.apple.com

Three certificates:

1> signing certificate. (MAC computer keychain Generation)

2> make a publishing certificate. (Signing certificate + developer account)

3> make PP certificate. (Publish certificate + App ID)

Detailed steps:

One, create a certificate request file (signing certificate) on the computer

First, open the application--utilities--Keychain access (key CHAIN), as shown in:

In the Certificate assistant, select Request a certificate from a certification authority:

Applications-Utilities-keychain Access

Of course, you can also launchpad-> other keychain access

In the Certificate assistant, select Request a certificate from a certification authority:

Click Request a certificate from the certification authority to enter the following interface:

Certificate information. png

Note:1> e-mail address: Fill in the email address of your application developer account 2> common name: The default is good

3> CA e-mail address: Empty 4> request Storage to disk (when you can choose to save to the desktop, easy to find use)

Click Continue to go to the following screen

Save. png

Click Storage to save the request file to the desktop

The signing certificate on the desktop. png

At this point, you can see a certificatesigningrequest.certsigningrequest certificate request file (CSR file) on the desktop.

Note: The CSR file is made as often as possible for each certificate, separating common names because the common name is the name of the key in the certificate.

Double-click the CSR file to install the signing certificate

Install the certificate request file. png

Click Continue and select Create a certificate for yourself

Then click Continue

Click Continue to create the certificate successfully

Signature algorithm: SHA-256 Public key information with RSA encryption: RSA encryption, public key 256 bytes

Two. Create a publishing certificate

2.1 Pre-preparatory work

First, you need to have the following conditions

1> Apple's developer account 2> Mac OS 3> Xcode (this is the Xcode7.3 official version)

If you don't have an account, you can open http://developer.apple.com/to sign up for Apple's developer account. Developer account specific application process, no longer detailed here.

If you already have a developer account, open http://developer.apple.com/

Publish a certificate file

`

Double-click Install certificate (if not installed, you can drag the certificate file directly into the list of keychain access)

The certificate has been installed to the keychain. png

Third, the production of provisioning profiles certificate (referred to as PP certificate)

So far, the required certificate on the shelves is not complete, want to submit AppStore, also need PP certificate.

1> PP Certificate is divided into the PP certificate for development and the PP certificate for publication, where we are making a PP certificate for publication 2> making PP certificate, need App ID and publish certificate (Publish certificate is done in previous step)

3.1 Apply App ID

Select App IDs

Choose App Ids.png

Then click the plus sign in the top right corner to create a new App ID

Snip20160426_36.png

Note: Here are two things we need to fill out:1> the first ' name ', to describe your ' AppID ', this random, no restrictions, preferably the project name, so as to facilitate their own identification (not allowed to include Chinese);2> the second ' Bundle ID ' (APP ID Suffix) ', this is your ' App ID ' suffix, which needs to be carefully filled in. Because this content is directly related to your program, a lot of places to use, preferably the ' com.yourcompany.yourappname ' format, plainly, is to use the bundle ID in the project (this is the most insured).

Choose the services you need in your app

APP Services.png

Note:1> wildcard format of the certificate does not push, passcard and other services applications, carefully selected. 2> There is a difference, because the PP certificate developer certificate needs real machine debugging, so we need to bind the real machine, if not, we need to copy the Udid of the real machine here to add, in the release of the PP certificate, there is no this step.

Click Continue to enter the following screen

Confirm your App Id.png

Confirm the APP ID information, if it is correct, click Register
