Profile Creation

A Build profile can be created by following these steps:

Creating a Profile

Click on the Add New button located in the middle of the screen. If you already have an existing profile displayed on the build profile list, this button will be in the top right corner.

Provide a unique name for the build profile and choose a target operating system (OS), which can be Android or iOS.

After selecting the target OS, specify the corresponding target platform to set up a compatible build environment:

iOS Platforms:

• Objective-C / Swift
• React Native
• Flutter

Android Platforms:

• Java / Kotlin
• React Native
• Flutter

Click Save to proceed.

Choose from the available repository connection options to link your project source code:

• GitHub
• Azure
• Bitbucket
• GitLab
• Connect via SSH
• Connect via URL
• Connecting to Multiple Instances

info

If you have not previously connected to a Git provider on Appcircle, i.e., created a profile but have not connected a repository, you will not see any connection on this page.

For more information on creating repository connections, please refer to the connections guide.

To test drive Appcircle, you can find various sample projects on the Appcircle GitHub page or you can just press the Quick Start Using the Sample Repository button to populate the repository with a compatible project based on the selected framework.

For detailed instructions on connecting to each repository, refer to the Connection Guides.

Once the repository connection is established, the build profile will be created successfully. Appcircle will then pull your branches, commits, and other information from your repository. You can now use the build profile to manage and deploy your projects.

Profile Listing

Users can view their created build profiles by selecting the Build Profiles option in the left menu. They can also toggle between the profile card view and list view to easily locate profiles for different project types.

Connection Settings

After connecting a build profile to a Git provider, we can see the "Connection Settings" button in the build profile details.

You can click on the "Connection Settings" button under the build profile name and URL to see detailed information about the connection. (PAT, OAuth)

OAuth

Personal Access Token (PAT)

caution

If you added your repository via multiple instances using PAT (Personal Access Token), the "Connection Settings" will look different.

You can review the Connecting Multiple Instances page to learn how to use "Connection Settings" for multiple instances.
