Using certificates

In most cases, Xcode is the preferred method to request and install digital certificates. However, to request certificates for services such as Apple Pay, the Apple Push Notification service, Apple Wallet, and Mobile Device Management, you'll need to request and download them from Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles in your developer account. Distribution certificates can be requested only by Account Holders and Admins.

For more information on how to use signing certificates, review Xcode Help.

Protecting your account and certificates

Your Apple ID, authentication credentials, and related account information and materials (such as Apple Certificates used for distribution or submission to the App Store) are sensitive assets that confirm your identity.

Keep your Apple ID and authentication credentials secure and do not share them with anyone. To learn more, see Security and your Apple ID.
Do not share Apple Certificates outside of your organization. To learn how to securely share them with trusted team members within your organization, see Maintain Signing Assets in Xcode Help.

Compromised certificates

If you suspect that your Pass Type ID certificate or Developer ID certificate and private key have been compromised, and would like to request revocation of the certificate, send an email to product-security@apple.com. You can continue to develop and distribute passes by requesting an additional certificate in your developer account.

I received an error message saying, 'Xcode could not find a valid private-key/certificate pair for this profile in your keychain.'

This error message indicates that your system’s keychain is missing either the public or private key for the certificate you're using to sign your application.

This often happens when you're trying to sign and build your application from a different system than the one you originally used to request your code signing certificate. It can also happen if your certificate has expired or has been revoked. Ensure that your app’s provisioning profile contains a valid code signing certificate, and that your system’s Keychain contains that certificate, the private key originally used to generate that certificate, and the WWDR Intermediate Certificate.

For instructions on how to resolve this error, review the Code Signing support page.
