TMS-91056: Invalid privacy manifest

Uploading a new App version to App Store Connect brings the warnings:

TMS-91056: Invalid privacy manifest - The PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy file from the following path is invalid: “PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy”. While no action is required at this time, starting May 1, 2024, when you upload a new app or app update, keys and values in your app’s privacy manifest must be in a valid format.


ITMS-91053: Missing API declaration - Your app’s code in the “SolVecConMon” file references one or more APIs that require reasons, including the following API categories: NSPrivacyAccessedAPICategoryUserDefaults.

--> this Missing API declaration is then repeated for all App components


I tried much but could not find the problem. Please attached screenshot.


Thanks for assistance!

Some general background:



Your particular case (including your use of User Defaults as the trigger) is described here:
