Implementation Reference

  • The implementation of the `apple_create_beta_group` tool, including its schema definition and the handler that performs the POST request to the App Store Connect API.
    const createBetaGroup: ToolDef = {
      name: 'apple_create_beta_group',
      description: 'Create a beta group',
      schema: z.object({
        appId: z.string().describe('App ID'),
        name: z.string().describe('Group name'),
        isInternalGroup: z.boolean().optional().describe('Is internal group (Apple employees)'),
        hasAccessToAllBuilds: z.boolean().optional().describe('Auto-enable all new builds'),
        publicLinkEnabled: z.boolean().optional().describe('Enable public TestFlight link'),
        publicLinkLimit: z.number().optional().describe('Max testers via public link'),
        feedbackEnabled: z.boolean().optional().describe('Enable feedback'),
      }),
      handler: async (client, args) => {
        const { appId, ...attributes } = args;
        return client.request('/betaGroups', {
          method: 'POST',
          body: {
            data: {
              type: 'betaGroups',
              attributes,
              relationships: {
                app: { data: { type: 'apps', id: appId } },
              },
            },
          },
        });
      },
    };
