[Feature Request] Add App Store Metadata & Screenshot Upload Support to Codemagic CLI

[dtrdic]

At the moment, managing App Info Localizations (such as the app name, subtitle, description, privacy policy URL, keywords, etc.) and uploading App Store screenshots still requires manually updating everything in App Store Connect.

It would be great if this could all be handled natively.

The idea

Allow users to keep a directory (perhaps app-store/ ) inside their repository containing:

app-store/
├── metadata.json
└── screenshots/
    ├── en-AU/
    │   ├── APP_IPHONE_67/
    │   └── APP_IPAD_PRO_3GEN_129/
    └── it/
        ├── APP_IPHONE_67/
        └── APP_IPAD_PRO_3GEN_129/
         ...

The metadata file would contain all the App Store information that normally has to be entered manually, for example:

• app name
• subtitle
• description
• keywords
• support URL
• marketing URL
• privacy policy URL
• copyright
• categories
• contact information
• age ratings
• release notes
• and any other required storefront metadata

The screenshots directory would contain localized screenshots that could be uploaded automatically during the workflow.

Then the workflow could simply be something like:

publishing:
  app_store_connect:
    auth: integration
    submit_to_app_store: true
    storefront_orchestration:
      metadata_file: app-store/metadata.json
      screenshots_dir: app-store/screenshots

or alternatively through the CLI:

scripts:
  - name: Sync App Store metadata
    script: |
      codemagic-cli app-store sync \
        --bundle-id com.example.app \
        --config-path app-store/metadata.json \
        --assets-dir app-store/screenshots
