Invalid Privacy Manifest warning when uploaded to App Store

[james-wag]

Any application uploaded to App Store Connect that currently integrates the SDK will get the following warning:

ITMS-91056: Invalid privacy manifest - The PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy file from the following path is invalid: "Frameworks/MapboxCommon.framework/PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy". While no action is required at this time, starting May 1, 2024, when you upload a new app or app update, keys and values in your app's privacy manifest must be in a valid format. For more details about privacy manifest files, visit:

It appears that a new privacy manifest file is needed at the MapboxCommon directory level is needed like in the following Apple Doc https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/privacy_manifest_files

Hi James,

This is something we're working to address on our end, it'll be addressed before May 1st. (Likely in the next version)

@james-wag which version of the SDK are you using now?

[james-wag]

@aokj4ck I was using 2.0.0-rc2. I do see that there's been an r3 release since I opened this issue.

[aokj4ck]

@james-wag okay you can try out this branch xcprivacy-searchcore_beta17 (link) which is in pull request review. This should be compatible with Xcode 15.0 to 15.2.

Please let me know if you encounter any issues.

Closing in favor of #233 which is more up-to-date with current app store submission issues.
