Questions tagged [provisioning-profile]

A profile used by Apple for verifying code signing for an application.

A profile used by Apple for verifying code signing for an application. It consists of a private/public key pair, and a .mobileprovision file that must be installed on the target device for debugging. There are two forms of provisioning profiles, development and distribution. Development is just for debugging the application on a device, and distribution is used for app store deployment or ad-hoc distribution. The development and ad-hoc provisioning profiles store a list of devices allowed to run applications associated with the profile. All provisioning profiles store a list of developers allowed to sign the application.
