Issue description

I have a flutter app and am trying to integrate CI on Bitrise. The android apk gets generated but when it comes to the ios IPA, it fails in the "Xcode archive & Export for ios" step with no archive generated at: <path>/Runner.xcarchive and without any descriptive error message.

The contents of my xcodebuild-archive.log artifact file are as follows

Forgot to update this. After further trials and errors, this issue was resolved by changing the apple authentication method from 'Apple ID' to 'API key'.
