Certain documentation seems to suggest I can submit a swift playground to the App Store. I am a paid $99 a year developer. In the submission process they ask for my team ID. I am not part of a team. I am an individual. However, my individual account has a team ID associated with it, but they don’t allow me to enter that number in the space provided. There is an * note saying some teams are not permitted to upload to the Apple store connect. How do I, a paid up developer, submit a swift playgrounds app to the App Store?.
I am a paid $99 a year developer … I am not part of a team.
You’ve misunderstand the terminology here. Every standard Apple Account is a member of a team:
-
If you haven’t paid, you’re a member of a Personal Team (aka free provisioning).
-
If you paid for yourself, you’re a member of an Individual team.
-
If someone else paid and then invited you, you’re a member of an Organization team (or In-House (Enterprise)).
It sounds like you paid for yourself and thus should be a member of your Individual team. However, Swift Playgrounds isn’t picking that up for some reason. Are you sure you’re signed in using the same Apple Account that joined the programme?
One good test here is to go to Developer > Account, sign in, and click the popup at the top right. That’ll show you all the teams of which you’re a member. And if you select a team then the Membership details pane will show you its Team ID and team type (in the “Enrolled as” field).
If you’ve paid to join the programme and the Developer website isn’t showing your paid team, something has gone wrong in the payment process. The best way to resolve that is to reach out via Apple > Developer > Contact Us.
Share and Enjoy
