Uploading a provisioning profile

You upload a provisioning profile from your disk to a new or to an existing certificate set. A provisioning profile for the iOS platform is a collection of digital entities that uniquely ties developers and devices to an authorized iPhone Development Team and enables a device to be used for testing.

1. If necessary, generate a new mobile provisioning profile for your iOS app from the Apple Developer Portal and save it to your directory. For more information, see the Generating mobile certificates for the iOS platform PDN article.
2. If the certificate set does not exist, create a new certificate set.
3. If the certificate set exists, open an existing certificate set.
4. Next to the Mobile Provisioning file list, click New.
5. Click Browse, and select a provisioning profile file from your directory.
6. In the Profile name field, enter a name for the provisioning profile. The name cannot include underscore ( _ ), hyphen (-), or period (.) characters.
7. Click OK.

After you upload a provisioning file for an existing certificate set, you can select this modified certificate set for your iOS custom app. For more information, see Selecting an iOS certificate set.
