I'm testing app transferring, before, I have migrate user from teamA to teamB, including subA->transferSub->subB process, now I'm transfer the app from teamB to teamC, after the transfer requested, I can't get transfer_id by /usermigrationinfo api, which response 400 invalid request. the question is I can still get transfer sub by the auth/token api(grant_type: authorization_code) with teamB parameters(teamIdB/clientIdB/appSecretB/redirectUrlB/subB)，but the value is same as first time transfer_id which get during teamA to teamB. when use parameters above with target(teamIdC) to request /usermigrationinfo, invalid request was responsed. im sure that all parameters is correct, dose it cause by teamB still in 60-days first transferring(sure already accepted)?

hello, I'm writing to seek clarification on Apple account security, particularly regarding potential risks of compromise, implemented safeguards, and residual risks with corresponding mitigation strategies. We would appreciate your insights on the following specific points: iCloud Keychain Access: Is an Apple ID login strictly required to access iCloud Keychain? We understand that a compromise of iCloud Keychain is unlikely unless a malicious actor successfully takes over the legitimate user's Apple ID. Is this understanding correct? Passkey Theft Methods and Protections: What are the conceivable methods a malicious actor might employ to steal a legitimate user's passkey, and how are these attempts protected against? Impact of Apple ID Compromise on Passkeys: If a malicious actor successfully compromises a legitimate user's Apple ID, is it accurate to assume that the legitimate user's passkeys would then synchronize to the attacker's device, potentially allowing them to log in using their own biometrics? Authorization Flow on Legitimate User's Device: Could you please detail the authorization flow that occurs on the legitimate user's device? We are particularly interested in the types of authentication involved and the conditions under which they are triggered. Detection and Additional Authentication for Unauthorized Login: How are attempts to log in to an Apple ID from an unrecognized device or browser detected, and what additional authentication steps are implemented in such scenarios? Thank you for your time and assistance in addressing these important security questions.

PLATFORM AND VERSION iOS Development environment: Xcode 26.2, macOS x Run-time configuration: iOS The issue does not seem to be limited to a specific version. DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM We are reaching out to request in-depth technical assistance regarding an intermittent issue with Sign in with Apple implementation in our application. [Technical Status] We have confirmed that our technical implementation is correct. All necessary code and Xcode Capabilities are properly configured, and the service is working perfectly for the vast majority of our users. However, a small subset of users is consistently encountering "Unknown" Error (Error Code 1000), which prevents them from logging in entirely. [Identified Scenario] Currently, the only reproducible case we have found involves Child Accounts (protected accounts) under Family Sharing, specifically when the user's age is set below the regional requirement for a standalone Apple ID. However, we are receiving reports from other users who do not seem to fall into this category. [Requests for Clarification] To resolve this issue and support our users, we would like to obtain clear answers to the following questions: Root Cause: Why does Error 1000 occur specifically for a small number of users while the service works for most others? Other Scenarios: Are there any known cases or conditions other than the "Child Account" age restriction that trigger this specific error? Account-side Issues: If our code and configurations are verified to be correct, should we conclude that this is an issue specific to the individual's Apple ID/Account status? If so, could you provide a troubleshooting guide or official recommendation that we can share with these users to help them resolve their account-related issues? We are committed to providing a seamless authentication experience and would appreciate your expert insight into these edge cases.

I am not able to use Feedback because the app can not reset my password.

We are integrating Sign in with Apple for our web application and have been stuck on an invalid_client error during the token exchange step. The Problem The authorization step works fine — the user authenticates on Apple's page and a valid authorization code is returned to our callback URL. However, when we exchange that code at https://appleid.apple.com/auth/token, it returns: {"error": "invalid_client"} The Puzzling Part When we send a dummy/expired authorization code with the exact same client_id and client_secret, Apple returns: {"error": "invalid_grant", "error_description": "The code has expired or has been revoked."} This confirms that our client credentials (client_id + client_secret JWT) are valid and accepted by Apple. The invalid_client error only occurs when a real, freshly-issued authorization code is used. Configuration Service ID configured with Sign in with Apple enabled Primary App ID with Sign in with Apple capability enabled Domain verified, Return URL registered Key created with Sign in with Apple enabled, linked to the correct Primary App ID Client Secret JWT Generated per Apple's documentation: Header: alg: ES256, kid set to our Key ID Claims: iss: Team ID iat: current timestamp exp: iat + 6 months (within Apple's limit) aud: https://appleid.apple.com sub: Service ID (matches the client_id used in authorization) Signed with: the .p8 private key associated with the Key Token Exchange Request POST https://appleid.apple.com/auth/tokenContent-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencodedclient_id=client_secret=code=grant_type=authorization_coderedirect_uri= What We've Tried Standalone test endpoint — built a minimal endpoint (no framework) that does the token exchange via server-side curl. Same invalid_client. Multiple Service IDs — created and tried 3 different Service IDs. All produce the same error with real codes. Multiple Keys — tried 2 different keys. Same error. Verified redirect_uri matches exactly between the authorization request and token request. Verified client_id matches exactly between the authorization URL and token request. Used client_secret_post (credentials in body, not Basic auth header). Freshness — code is used immediately upon receipt (within seconds), well before the 5-minute expiry. Filed a Developer Support case — was directed to Forums. Summary Scenario code Result Dummy/expired code abc123 invalid_grant (credentials accepted) Real fresh code from Apple callback invalid_client This pattern suggests something goes wrong specifically when Apple validates the authorization code against the client — even though the client credentials themselves are accepted in isolation. Has anyone encountered this behavior? Is there a known configuration issue that could cause invalid_client only with valid authorization codes? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Hello everyone, We are currently preparing for an App Transfer to a new Apple Developer account due to a corporate merger. We are trying to figure out the best way to handle Apple Sign-In user migration and would love to get some advice on our proposed fallback plan. 📌 Current Situation We need to transfer our app's ownership to a new corporate entity. The app heavily relies on Apple Sign-In. The Issue: We did not collect the transfer_sub values during our initial development phase. Although we started collecting them recently, we will not have them for all existing users by the time the transfer happens. 🚨 The Risk (The 60-Day Rule) Based on Apple's documentation, even if we provide the transfer_sub, users must log into the app within 60 days of the transfer to successfully migrate their accounts. This means that users who log in after 60 days, or those whose transfer_sub is missing, will fail the Apple migration process. They will be treated as "new users" and will lose access to their existing account data. 💡 Our Proposed Custom Recovery Flow Since we cannot rely entirely on Apple's automated migration, we are planning to build a custom internal account recovery process to prevent user drop-off: A user (who failed the migration or logged in after 60 days) attempts to use Apple Sign-In on the transferred app. Since the existing account isn't linked, Apple generates a new identifier (sub), and the user enters the new sign-up flow. During the sign-up process, we enforce a mandatory identity verification step (e.g., SMS phone number verification). We query our existing user database using this verified information. If a matching existing user is found: We interrupt the sign-up process and display a prompt: "An existing account was found. We will link your account." We then update our database by mapping the new Apple sub value to their existing account record, allowing them to log in seamlessly. ❓ My Questions App Review Risk: Could this manual mapping approach—overwriting the Apple sub on an existing account based on internal identity verification—violate any Apple guidelines or result in an App Store rejection? Shared Experiences: Has anyone dealt with missing transfer_sub values or the 60-day migration limit during an App Transfer? How did you mitigate user loss? Best Practices: Are there any alternative, safer, or more recommended workarounds for this scenario?

For my api I have a domain scheme of env.service.example.com. I am trying to setup sign in with apple, however, when trying to set my return urls, the env subdomain is stripped, making the return url incorrect. For example, when I try to set https://env.service.example.com/ it is changed to https://service.example.com/ when submitted. Is there any way around this issue?

Hi, we are experiencing a specific issue with the Private Email Relay service. Our domain e.glassesdirect.co.uk consistently fails SPF verification while our other domains pass. The Pattern: We've noticed that domains with SPF records fitting in 1-2 TXT strings pass, but this specific domain (~750 chars, 3 TXT strings) fails. Technical Details: Team ID: SM2J7LWD33 Domain: e.glassesdirect.co.uk SPF Record length: ~750 characters Third-party tools (MxToolbox) confirm the record is valid. We suspect Apple's verification parser might be failing to handle concatenated TXT strings or hitting a size limit. Could any Apple engineers confirm if there is a character limit or a bug in handling multi-part TXT records?
