Prerequisites

To use Steelyard, you’ll need to provide several details that are obtained via Apple’s Developer Portal.

Follow the following steps to create an API key and retrieve the necessary information.

Step 1: Create an API Key

  1. Go to App Store Connect > Users and Access > Keys > App Store Connect API.
  2. Click the + button to create a new key.
  3. Give the key a name, select Developer (or higher) access role and generate it.
  4. Download the generated .p8 file.

Note: Store this file in a secure place, as you won’t be able to download it again.

Step 2: Retrieve Key and Issuer IDs

  1. In the list, find your key, hover over the Key ID and tap on the Copy Key ID button.
  2. The Issuer ID with a Copy button is available right above the list of keys, under the Users and Access section.

Step 3: Locate Private Key Path

The Private Key Path is the location where you’ve stored the downloaded .p8 file.

Step 4: Find Your App ID

The App ID can be found in the App Store Connect > Apps > General > App Information > General Information > Apple ID.
