# Step 1 – Create a build archive
You need to create a build archive in order to upload your build to App Store Connect. The current build is a debug build for building, debugging, and testing. When you are ready to publish your app on the App Store or TestFlight.
In the **Editor area**, select the motorReactApp project.
Next, choose a project target from the **Scheme toolbar** menu.
Select the **Generic iOS Device** option from the list.
Finally, create a build archive by selecting **Product > Archive** from the Menu bar.
If the archive builds successfully, it appears in the [Archives organizer.](https://help.apple.com/xcode/mac/current/#/devea503dbda)
