Hi,

Does anyone have experience archiving and distributing a macOS app that has the ZoomVideoSDK added as a library dependency?

I’m trying to archive my app for direct distribution and I’m facing this window with options that I’m not really sure how to tackle.

Has anyone been able to distribute their Zoom macOS app either with direct distribution or through the Apple Store?

@richardpiazza have you distributed your app yet?

Do you have ‘Embed Without Signing’ turned on for those zoom .app binaries? Look under Project Settings \> General \> Frameworks, Libraries, and Embedded Content.

I’m resigning those binaries with the Developer ID before archiving. I’ve been testing distribution, but ours will probably be done with MDM, using the notarized application.
