Transfer Identifier Issue for iOS App Transfer

Hello everyone,

We recently transferred an iOS app but didn’t generate the transfer identifier before initiating the transfer. Is it still possible to generate the transfer identifier after the transfer has been completed? If not, are there any alternative solutions or steps we can take to resolve this issue?

Thank you for any guidance!

Hi @cssmhyl,

Please see the following technote to learn more about Sign in with Apple user migrations:

TN3159: Migrating Sign in with Apple users for an app transfer https://developer.apple.com/documentation/technotes/tn3159-migrating-sign-in-with-apple-users-for-an-app-transfer

And, yes, you can transfer the app back to the original transferor account (or recipient account) multiple times.

Additional Question: Is it possible to transfer the app back to the original account, generate the transfer identifier, and then transfer it again to the new account? Would this be a viable solution, or are there any restrictions or issues with this approach?
