fastlane: Error ITC.apps.tf.build.test.info.missing.whats.new while `distribute_external=false`

New Issue Checklist

Issue Description

When running ‘pilot’ with parameter distribute_external on ‘false’. I get this error: {“code”=>“ITC.apps.tf.build.test.info.missing.whats.new”, “description”=>“Missing what’s new info.”}

Dispite this, the build is delivered and available for internal testing.

We are looking into this now - thanks for all the info. We’ll update just as soon as we have a sense of what we need to do to get this fixed.

Same error with external testing distribution and beta description. This is our pilot call:

    pilot(
      distribute_external: true,
      changelog: "New version...",
      beta_app_description: "This is a preview of our new app...",
      beta_app_feedback_email: "feedback@...",
      testers_file_path: "./fastlane/ios-testers.csv"
    )

Hi folks! Update to the latest version of fastlane and see if you are still having problems. I’m confident we have resolved the issues that you are all suffering from.

I’m going to close this issue; please feel free to open another issue if you are still having difficulty!

Thanks!

Sounds like a weird requirement for internal testing.
