Xamarin Visual Studio for MAC. Automatic Provisioning failed: An App ID with Identifier '*' is not available

Viewed 484

Until recently I was able to use the auto signing in Visual Studio MAC to handle my provisioning.

Now I get this when trying to build debug and production releases. I've tried to use the manual provision profiles and those aren't working either.

There is a valid bundle id, same one that's been in place for 3 years, but from the error message it looks like it's confused.

Any suggestions on coming up with a resolution or even some steps to take?

Fetching valid and locally installed signing identities... Syncing certificates for "Acme, LLC" team... Saving iOS Development certificates... Syncing App IDs for "goidit, LLC" team... Creating a new wildcard App ID... Creating new App ID named VS Wildcard...

Automatic Provisioning failed: An App ID with Identifier '*' is not available. Please enter a different string.

I had the same issue with Visual Studio Mac. I found a comment on the Xamarin forums that worked for me. I had a couple of old wildcard app identifiers in my developer.apple.com account. Once I deleted them the automatic provisioning worked as advertised.
