Previously, it was possible to download the dSYM file from the App Store Connect account. However, Apple has recently discontinued this option. How can you obtain the necessary dSYM file for Firebase?
How to access dSYM file
dSYM files are produced by the compilation of your app in Xcode. In the era of bitcode uploads to the App Store, there was a final compilation step performed by the App Store, which meant that the App Store produced the dSYM file and made it available for download. Now that bitcode is not part of the app distribution story any longer, that means the final dSYM files are the ones produced by Xcode on your Mac when you compile your app — there is nothing to download any more.
To see the dSYM files produced before you upload your app to the App Store, you can look inside the .xcarchive
by right-clicking on the archive in the Xcode Organizer, and selecting Show in Finder. And then in Finder, right-clicking on the archive bundle and selecting Show Package Contents.

Any idea how to download it when the build done from Xcode cloud?
We used a no-code platform to build our app. How would we download it without access to Xcode?

@kassa11, you should download the final archive from Xcode Cloud. See Download and archive build artifacts.

@FeelGoodMealsNC, that is between you and the vendor of your no-code tool, as they should provide you with the complete set of build artifacts, including all available dSYM files. However, I suspect the reason you're inquiring about this information here is that you're receiving a warning when uploading your app to the App Store. If that's the case, then you'll want to see this other thread. Note that Firebase is a very common library in the iOS developer community, but if it has any closed source components (I do not know since it's from a vendor and not from Apple), then a dSYM may not exist if the author of the library does not wish to make such symbol information available to its clients.
