Add support for Fastlane update_app_age_rating in the Deploy to iTunes Connect - Deliver step

Feature Requests Steps
1

Apple recently introduced new Age Rating questions (including Social Features) that must be answered before submitting app updates.

Fastlane already supports updating these values through the update_app_age_rating action:

However, the Bitrise Deploy to iTunes Connect - Deliver step does not expose any way to execute this action before running deliver.

For teams managing many applications (e.g. white-label apps), updating the Age Rating manually in App Store Connect is not a scalable solution.

Proposed solution

Add support for configuring update_app_age_rating in the Deploy to iTunes Connect - Deliver step.

Possible implementations:

  • Add an optional input for the Age Rating JSON file and execute update_app_age_rating before deliver.
  • Or provide a generic mechanism to execute one or more Fastlane actions before the deliver command.

Benefits

  • Supports Apple’s latest App Store Connect requirements.
  • Eliminates manual work for large portfolios of apps.
  • Keeps Bitrise aligned with the latest Fastlane capabilities.
  • Allows fully automated App Store deployments.

Thanks!
