How do I see data in CloudKit container for Apple ID account other than developer account?

1.1k views Asked by At

I am working on an Xcode project for an iOS app that uses CloudKit. I am able to see the data in the CloudKit container in CloudKit Dashboard when I am logged in to the developer account that Xcode is logged into. When I log into CloudKit Dashboard using a different account that I use on an actual device with the iOS app installed, I am not able to see the container. With another Apple ID account, it says that the account is not registered as a developer account and needs to be registered. It seems to me CloudKit Dashboard should show a container for that app, but it doesn't. Why is this? How do I check the data in CloudKit for an Apple ID that is not the developer account?

You cannot view the contents of the private database of any user except for the developer's Apple ID (with the exception of the shared database acting as a window into another's private database). To view the contents of other people's private databases, you would have to have their device fetch the data and either store it in the public database or create a shared database (CKShare) with your developer Apple ID.
