name: asc-id-resolver description: Resolve App Store Connect IDs (app IDs, build IDs, version IDs, group IDs, tester IDs, submission IDs) from human-friendly names using asc CLI commands. Use when commands require IDs, when you only know the app name or bundle ID, or when you need to look up build numbers, TestFlight group names, or tester emails. Triggers: "resolve ID", "find app ID", "get build ID", "asc ID", "bundle ID lookup", "group ID", "tester ID", "version ID". allowed-tools: Bash, Read metadata: triggers: resolve ID, find app ID, get build ID, asc ID, bundle ID lookup, group ID, tester ID, version ID, App Store Connect ID related-skills: asc-cli-usage, asc-release-flow, asc-testflight-orchestration, asc-submission-health domain: mobile-deployment role: specialist scope: deployment output-format: commands last-reviewed: "2026-03-15"

asc id resolver

Iron Law

NEVER PASS A HUMAN-READABLE NAME TO AN ASC COMMAND THAT REQUIRES AN ID — RESOLVE THE ID FIRST

Use this skill to map names to IDs needed by other commands.

App ID

• By bundle ID or name:
  • asc apps list --bundle-id "com.example.app"
  • asc apps list --name "My App"
• Fetch everything:
  • asc apps --paginate
• Set default:
  • ASC_APP_ID=...

Build ID

• Latest build:
  • asc builds latest --app "APP_ID" --version "1.2.3" --platform IOS
• Recent builds:
  • asc builds list --app "APP_ID" --sort -uploadedDate --limit 5

Version ID

• asc versions list --app "APP_ID" --paginate

TestFlight IDs

• Groups:
  • asc beta-groups list --app "APP_ID" --paginate
• Testers:
  • asc beta-testers list --app "APP_ID" --paginate

Pre-release version IDs

• asc pre-release-versions list --app "APP_ID" --platform IOS --paginate

Review submission IDs

• asc review submissions-list --app "APP_ID" --paginate

Output tips

• JSON is default; use --pretty for debug.
• For human viewing, use --output table or --output markdown.

Guardrails

• Prefer --paginate on list commands to avoid missing IDs.
• Use --sort where available to make results deterministic.
