Set up iOS API Keys with Email OTP

Swetha K VยทSeptember 25, 2026

To upload the mobile app for your store onto the Apple App Store, Superfans team needs to be invited as a collaborator to your Developer Accounts. This will allow you to focus on other launch activities while our team can create, modify, and manage your app.

There are two types of Apple Developer accounts: Individual and Organization account. Follow these steps for Organisation accounts.

Before you start

  • Use the App Store Connect Account Holder account for the API-access request.

  • Invite [email protected] with Admin access.
