asc 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" --paginate
    • asc testflight groups create --app "APP_ID" --name "Beta Testers"
  • Testers:
    • asc testflight testers list --app "APP_ID" --paginate
    • asc testflight testers add --app "APP_ID" --email "tester@example.com" --group "Beta Testers"
    • asc testflight testers invite --app "APP_ID" --email "tester@example.com"

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

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 --paginate on large groups/tester lists.
  • Prefer IDs for deterministic operations; use the ID resolver skill when needed.
