Delphi + PAServer: How to correctly export iOS app with Notification Service Extension (appex) – missing provisioningProfiles in exportOptions.plist
08:02 26 Apr 2026

I’m deploying an iOS app built with Delphi (FMX) using PAServer. The app includes a Notification Service Extension (.appex).

The build succeeds, but the export step fails with:

error: exportArchive "NotificationService.appex" requires a provisioning profile.

Context

App structure:

MyApp.app/
  PlugIns/
    NotificationService.appex/

Bundle identifiers:

  • Main app: com.example.myapp

  • Extension: com.example.myapp.notificationservice

Both App Store provisioning profiles exist and are valid.


Problem

PAServer generates this exportOptions.plist:

provisioningProfiles

  com.example.myapp
  com.example.myapp

But the extension is missing. It should be:

provisioningProfiles

  com.example.myapp
  com.example.myapp
  com.example.myapp.notificationservice
  com.example.myapp.notificationservice

Without this, xcodebuild -exportArchive fails.


Question

Is there a way to make Delphi / PAServer include app extensions in exportOptions.plist?

Or is manually exporting with xcodebuild the only solution when using .appex extensions?
