Issue

Your build fails with the following error:

Process config: simulator UDID lookup failed: device type (iPhone 8) with runtime OS (16.0) is unavailable

Possible Solutions

Based on your Workflow, you can try to fix this issue in multiple ways:

  1. If your Workflow uses the Xcode Test for iOS Step, update it to 4.6.0 or a newer version.

  2. If your Workflow does not use the Xcode Test for iOS Step, add the Start Xcode simulator Step (version 0.2.0 or newer) to your Workflow.

Both of these Steps will automatically install the test devices (for example, iPhone 8 with runtime iOS 16.0) when unavailable.
