Once you have a certificate signing request, you can use it to create development and distribution certificates. Development certificates are used when you want to test your app on your own iOS devices, and distribution certificates are used when you want to upload your app to the App Store. Here's how to create development and distribution certificates:
- Log in to your Apple Developer account and click Certificates, IDs & Profiles:
- You'll see the Certificates screen. Click the + button:
- Click the Apple Development radio button, and click Continue:
- Click Choose File:
- Upload the CSR by selecting Choose File under Upload CSR file, selecting the CSR file you saved earlier to your hard disk, and clicking Choose.
- Click Continue:
- Your certificate will be generated automatically. Click Download to download...
