Details
From the project READMEasc TestFlight orchestration
Use this skill when managing TestFlight testers, groups, and build distribution.
Export current config
asc testflight config export --app "APP_ID" --output "./testflight.yaml"- Include builds/testers:
asc testflight config export --app "APP_ID" --output "./testflight.yaml" --include-builds --include-testers
Manage groups and testers
- Groups:
asc testflight groups list --app "APP_ID" --paginateasc testflight groups create --app "APP_ID" --name "Beta Testers"- A group's builds and testers:
asc testflight groups builds list --group-id "GROUP_ID" --paginateandasc testflight groups testers list --group-id "GROUP_ID" --paginate
- Testers:
asc testflight testers list --app "APP_ID" --paginateasc testflight testers add --app "APP_ID" --email "[email protected]" --group "Beta Testers"asc testflight testers invite --app "APP_ID" --email "[email protected]"
Distribute builds
asc builds add-groups --build-id "BUILD_ID" --group "GROUP_ID"- Remove from group:
asc builds remove-groups --build-id "BUILD_ID" --group "GROUP_ID" --confirm
Inspect a build's groups
asc testflight groups list --build-id "BUILD_ID" --output table- The build lookup is experimental. It resolves the app, paginates the app's groups, and includes groups with all-build access.
Upload without distribution
asc publish testflight --app "APP_ID" --ipa "./app.ipa" --upload-only --output json- Add
--waitwhen the next step needs a processed build. - Upload-only requires a new IPA or local Xcode build. Do not combine it with an existing
--build-id, groups, tester notifications, test notes, or beta-review submission.--build-numberis allowed as upload metadata, but it cannot be the only build input.
What to Test notes
asc builds test-notes create --build-id "BUILD_ID" --locale "en-US" --whats-new "Test instructions"asc builds test-notes update --localization-id "LOCALIZATION_ID" --whats-new "Updated notes"
Notes
- Use
--paginateon large groups/tester lists. - Prefer IDs for deterministic operations; use the ID resolver skill when needed.
