Your account does not have permission to create iOS distribution certificates

Question

your account does not have permission to create ios distribution

Answer 1

Perhaps your provisioning profile was expired and even after updating it from Apple's developer website, Xcode doesn't try to fetch the new one.

Here's how to solve it:

1. Xcode -> preferences -> accounts
2. Select your Apple ID, and on the right bottom pane select your team and click View Details
3. Under provisioning profile, find your expired profile, right click, and click Move to Trash
4. You should be able to sign and upload your app.
