IOS — look inside provisioning profile

code-signingcode-signing-entitlementsiosprovisioning-profile

Is it possible to inspect the insides of a provisioning profile? I am dealing with a code signing error because the entitlements do not match. Fixing this is rather difficult as I don't know how to inspect the entitlements in the provisioning profile. Hence I am shooting in the dark.

You can also do a text dump by typing

security cms -D -i <prov>

FWIW

  • security is to Administer Keychains, keys, certificates and the Security framework.

  • cms is a command within the security framework it stands for Cryptographic Message Syntax

  • -D is for decoding

  • -i means infile use infile as source of data (default: stdin)
