App Store metadata (Fastlane deliver)

This directory is used by fastlane deliver for App Store Connect text metadata.

Upload public metadata and App Review attachment

cd apps/ios
APP_STORE_CONNECT_APP_ID=YOUR_APP_STORE_CONNECT_APP_ID \
DELIVER_METADATA=1 fastlane ios metadata release_version:2026.6.11

Release notes and App Review attachment

pnpm ios:release:upload uses this mode before archiving so the editable App Store version has current release notes and the App Review PDF attachment without rewriting all metadata:

cd apps/ios
DELIVER_RELEASE_NOTES=1 fastlane ios metadata release_version:2026.6.11

Optional: include screenshots

cd apps/ios
DELIVER_METADATA=1 DELIVER_SCREENSHOTS=1 fastlane ios metadata release_version:2026.6.11

Auth

The ios metadata lane uses App Store Connect API key auth from apps/ios/fastlane/.env:

Keychain-backed (recommended on macOS):
- APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEY_ID
- APP_STORE_CONNECT_ISSUER_ID
- APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEYCHAIN_SERVICE (default: openclaw-app-store-connect-key)
- APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEYCHAIN_ACCOUNT (default: current user)
File/path fallback:
- APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEY_ID
- APP_STORE_CONNECT_ISSUER_ID
- APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEY_PATH

Or set APP_STORE_CONNECT_API_KEY_PATH.

Notes

Locale files live under metadata/<locale>/, for example metadata/en-US/ and metadata/sv-SE/. Each locale directory should use the public metadata filenames consumed by the ios metadata lane.
Release notes are generated from apps/ios/CHANGELOG.md into temporary Fastlane metadata during upload; after changelog updates, run pnpm ios:version:check -- --version <release-version>.
Do not check in release_notes.txt under locale metadata directories; the lane strips copied release-note files and writes the current generated en-US release notes when requested.
apps/ios/APP-REVIEW-NOTES.md is rendered to apps/ios/build/app-review/APP-REVIEW-NOTES.pdf and uploaded as the App Review attachment when metadata is uploaded.
Release notes resolve from ## <release version> first, then fall back to ## Unreleased while an App Store Connect build train is still in progress.
When starting a new production release train, validate metadata with pnpm ios:version:check -- --version <release-version>.
The release upload flow uploads release notes, screenshots, and the App Review PDF attachment before the IPA, and never submits for App Review.
privacy_url.txt is set to https://openclaw.ai/privacy.
If app lookup fails in deliver, set one of:
- APP_STORE_CONNECT_APP_IDENTIFIER (bundle ID)
- APP_STORE_CONNECT_APP_ID (numeric App Store Connect app ID, e.g. from /apps/<id>/... URL)
App Review submission is manual. Keep review contact, demo account, and the App Store Connect Notes field outside this repo and enter them directly in App Store Connect when submitting for review. Do not add metadata/review_information/notes.txt; the lane refuses to upload that field.
