CREATING AN APP ID

An App ID is used to uniquely identify your app as part of the provisioning and authentication process. It has two parts:

• The Bundle Seed ID is a 10-character prefix generated by Apple.
• The Bundle Identifier is a reverse-domain style string that you determine. It can contain standard alphanumeric characters (A–A, 0–9), periods, and hyphens.

For example, a typical App ID might look something like the following:

2MDCRUBLFG.com.richwagner.myamazingwebapp

To create an App ID for your app:

1. Go to the IOS Provisioning Portal at https://developer.apple.com/ios/manage/overview/index.action.

2. Click the App IDs link.

3. Click the New App ID button to display the Create App ID page (see Figure 19-6).

4. In the Description input box, enter a name or description of your app.
