Swift write/save/move a document file to iCloud drive -

i've been trying on 2 days write file icloud drive. have tried writing simple text file directly, locally moving it, using uidocumentmenuviewcontroller, etc. i'm not getting errors code , stepping through debugger, looks successful, when check see if file exists or @ least icloud directory, there nothing there. tried on both simulator , iphone, triggering icloud synching, , else can think of.

my main goal write text file icloud drive, later "numbers" file

i have set plist file , entitlements:

<key>nsubiquitouscontainers</key> <dict>     <key>icloud.com.paul.c.$(product_name:rfc1034identifier)</key>     <dict>         <key>nsubiquitouscontainerisdocumentscopepublic</key>         <true/>         <key>nsubiquitouscontainername</key>         <string>mycloudtest</string>         <key>nsubiquitouscontainersupportedfolderlevels</key>         <string>any</string>     </dict> </dict> 

i have bumped bundle version stated at: save ios 8 documents icloud drive

i have tried dozens of tutorials no luck. latest code based off of sample: https://medium.com/ios-os-x-development/icloud-drive-documents-1a46b5706fe1

here code:

@ibaction func exportfile(sender: anyobject) {      var error:nserror?      let iclouddocumentsurl = nsfilemanager.defaultmanager().urlforubiquitycontaineridentifier(nil)?.urlbyappendingpathcomponent("mycloudtest")      //is icloud working?     if  iclouddocumentsurl != nil {          //create directory if doesn't exist         if (!nsfilemanager.defaultmanager().fileexistsatpath(iclouddocumentsurl!.path!, isdirectory: nil)) {                 //this gets skipped after initial run saying directory exists, still don't see on icloud                 nsfilemanager.defaultmanager().createdirectoryaturl(iclouddocumentsurl!, withintermediatedirectories: true, attributes: nil, error: nil)         }     } else {         println("icloud not working!")         //  return     }      if ((error) != nil) {         println("error creating icloud dir")     }       //set directorys     let localdocumentsurl = nsfilemanager.defaultmanager().urlsfordirectory(nssearchpathdirectory.documentdirectory, indomains: .userdomainmask).last as! nsurl      //add txt file local folder     let mytextstring = nsstring(string: "hello world")     let mylocalfile = localdocumentsurl.urlbyappendingpathcomponent("mytextfile.txt")     let written = mytextstring.writetourl(mylocalfile, atomically: true, encoding: nsutf8stringencoding, error: &error)      if ((error) != nil){         println("error saving local dir")     }      //if file exists on icloud remove     var isdir:objcbool = false     if (nsfilemanager.defaultmanager().fileexistsatpath(iclouddocumentsurl!.path!, isdirectory: &isdir)) {         nsfilemanager.defaultmanager().removeitematurl(iclouddocumentsurl!, error: &error)     }      //copy local icloud     if (error == nil && !nsfilemanager.defaultmanager().copyitematurl(localdocumentsurl, tourl: iclouddocumentsurl!, error: &error)) {         println(error?.localizeddescription);     } 

thank taking time this.

cheers, paul

i ran code on iphone after code above:

var error:nserror?     let iclouddocumentsurl = nsfilemanager.defaultmanager().urlforubiquitycontaineridentifier(nil) //?.urlbyappendingpathcomponent("mycloudtest")      var filemanager: nsfilemanager = nsfilemanager()       var filelist: nsarray = filemanager.contentsofdirectoryaturl(iclouddocumentsurl!, includingpropertiesforkeys: nil, options: nil, error: &error)!     var filesstr: nsmutablestring = nsmutablestring(string: "files in icloud folder \n")     s in filelist {          println(s)     } 

and prints out path text file: file:///private/var/mobile/library/mobile%20documents/icloud~com~paul~c~myapp/mytextfile.txt

my file there, can't see on icloud drive.

i had problem. followed advice here , found info.plist key not correct. once changed icloud.my_bundle_identifier (i.e. copy string cfbundleidentifier key higher in info.plist) started working.

removing .com key may fix issue.
