### Download provisioning profiles

After creating a development provisioning profile in your Apple Developer Account, you will need to download it so that it's available for signing your app:

1. Open the **Xcode** app.
2. Select the **Settings...** item in the **Xcode** menu.
3. Select the **@ Accounts** tab.
4. If you haven't already, add your Apple Developer Account. Otherwise, select your account.

## Provisioning for application services

Apple provides a selection of application services, known as capabilities, that can be activated for a .NET MAUI iOS app. These capabilities must be configured in both your provisioning profile, when the **App ID** is created, and in the *Entitlements.plist* file that should be added to the .NET MAUI app project. For more information about capabilities, see [Entitlements](~/ios/entitlements.md) and [Capabilities](~/ios/capabilities.md).
