Okay I answered my own question, this fixed it for me, and it’s objectively better:

  project = 'ios/project.xcodeproj'

  build_number = latest_testflight_build_number(
      app_identifier: CredentialsManager::AppfileConfig.try_fetch_value(:app_identifier),
      version: get_version_number(xcodeproj: project)
  ) + 1

  increment_build_number({
    xcodeproj: project,
    build_number: build_number
  })

Hi @ohayon, the problem is be cause I need fetch the build from my app in development. When I put live: true works like a charm, but when put live: false (that is my case) don’t works.

I’m still seeing this issue, using fastlane 2.56.0. It looks like everything returns 1, even for versions that don’t exist. Maybe 1 is the exit code from iTC?

This should return 11:

[15:35:23]: Login successful
[15:35:24]: Fetching the latest build number for version 6.34
[15:35:30]: Latest upload is build number: 1

This should return an error possibly?

[15:35:46]: Login successful
[15:35:47]: Fetching the latest build number for version asdasidki
[15:35:52]: Latest upload is build number: 1

Using the command like so:

current = latest_testflight_build_number(username: "...", app_identifier: "...", version: "6.34")

Actually never mind, that finds the build to be 1? (This has been working perfectly for months until today)
