Chicken or Egg - Integrate RC or submit for review

I followed the instructions (as best I can tell) to integrate RC into my react-native app. I added the subscription group and product in Appstoreconnect console. I added the sample code in my react-native app, and am trying to just “get the current offerings”. 

I get the generic error:

[Error: There is an issue with your configuration. Check the underlying error for more details. There's a problem with your configuration. None of the products registered in the RevenueCat dashboard could be fetched from App Store Connect (or the StoreKit Configuration file if one is being used). More information: https://rev.cat/why-are-offerings-empty]

 

After following that link ^, RC gives me a Troubleshooting Guide with a list of items to check. (Great feature btw)

The 3rd item in the list states:

Ensure the products are in the 'Ready to Submit' or 'Approved' state in App Store Connect. If you're submitting your first in-app purchase or adding a new in-app purchase type to your app, you'll need to submit it for review with a new version of your app. Please ensure you do not separately submit your products for review without the app itself.

This raises the question: do I need to submit a new version of my app for review with the new subscription details configured in Appstoreconnect just to be able to retrieve the details? If so, it seems like a chicken or egg scenario. How can I add RC to my app and check that it works if I need to submit a new version of the app with subscription for review?

Hi ​@justus-burger-6a5465,

Apple requires that the first subscriptions you put in your app are sent together with your app for review. This means that they should always be in "Ready to submit" while you are testing it and when you send your app build for review, attach the subscription products so they all get reviewed together. There's this section under the app build where you can include your in-app purchases:

You don’t need the products approved to see them in sandbox and be able to make test purchases, having it in “Ready to submit” is enough.

 

Best,
