  title: iOS Create a Signing Certificate
  summary: Submit a certificate signing request, then read the issued certificate back for download.
  description: >-
    The first half of any code-signing setup. The workflow submits a base64
    encoded certificate signing request (CSR) of the requested certificate type
    to App Store Connect, then reads the newly issued certificate to retrieve its
    serial number, expiration date, and the encoded certificate content needed to
    sign builds locally. Every step spells out its request inline so the flow can
    be read and executed without opening the underlying App Store Connect OpenAPI
    description. All calls require an App Store Connect JWT bearer token.
