Summary
The guide provides a simplified process for automating code signing in iOS apps using Bitrise and the Xcode Archive & Export for iOS Step. To use this method, users must first upload their code signing certificates to Bitrise, connect their Apple Developer Portal account, and select an authentication method. They then add the "Xcode Archive & Export for iOS" step to their workflow, which automatically manages code signing assets, archives, and exports an IPA file. The process requires access to App Store Connect and configuration of the Apple Service connection within Bitrise. Once set up, users can save changes and start a new build, which will output artifacts in the Artifacts tab.
