tns appstore upload
Description
Uploads project to iTunes Connect. The command either issues a production build and uploads it to iTunes Connect, or uses an already built package to upload.
The user will be prompted interactively for verification code when two-factor authentication enabled account is used. As on non-interactive console (CI), you will not be prompt for verification code. In this case, you need to generate a login session for your apple's account in advance using tns apple-login command. The generated value must be provided via the --appleSessionBase64 option and is only valid for up to a month. Meaning you'll need to create a new session every month.
WARNING: You can run this command only on macOS systems. To view the complete help for this command, run $ tns help appstore upload
