Getting started
Set up HexSign, connect an Apple Developer account, and get your first sync running.
Command line (CLI) & CI
Install the HexSign CLI, sign in, and script certificate and profile operations from your terminal, GitHub Actions, fastlane, Bitrise, GitLab CI, or CircleCI.
Certificates & CSRs
Create, revoke, and download certificates. Generate or upload CSRs and rotate signing identities safely.
Provisioning profiles
Create, regenerate, and download provisioning profiles using the wizard or directly from the dashboard.
Alerts & monitoring
Configure alerts to email, Slack, Microsoft Teams, and incident tools, read the health score, and stay ahead of expirations.
Team & billing
Invite teammates, assign roles, manage MFA and SSO, and handle Stripe-powered billing.
Troubleshooting
Diagnose sync errors, profile/certificate mismatches, and CI signing failures.

Connect an Apple Developer account with an App Store Connect API key
Generate an App Store Connect API key with the right role, paste it into HexSign, and unlock certificate, profile, and device sync.
Create a provisioning profile with the wizard
Walk through the guided wizard that picks the right profile type, identifier, certificate, and devices for the job.
Rotate an expiring signing certificate without breaking releases
A safe sequence for swapping a soon-to-expire certificate for a new one across every dependent provisioning profile.
Configure expiration alerts: email, chat, and incident tools
Set thresholds, route alerts to email, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Jira, PagerDuty, JSM, or incident.io, and send a test before enabling delivery so a release never breaks because of a forgotten certificate.
Fix a failed App Store Connect sync
Diagnose why a sync failed, read the error in the sync history, and know when to rotate the API key vs. retry.
Fix an invalid or expired provisioning profile
What "invalid" really means in App Store Connect, why a profile flips to that state, and how to bring it back.
