* To obtain your Issuer ID, login to your App Store Connect > Users and access > Integrations > Your Issuer ID will appear in the App Store Connect API section. Copy and Paste it into the Issuer ID field.
* The Key ID helps create secure credentials for publishing your app. To obtain your Key ID click on the + icon on the Integrations tab > enter your app name select admin access from the dropdown and click Generate. Find the new IAP Key ID under the Active Keys list. Copy and Paste it into the Key ID field.&#x20;

Important notes:

* Ensure you enter the correct App Store credentials while linking your App Store Connect account to avoid verification failures.
* The app version should be updated every time you push a new build for submission.
* App rejections are common; review Apple’s feedback and make required changes before resubmitting.
