1. Click **➕** to create a new profile
2. Select: **Distribution** → **Mac App Store Connect**
3. **Important**: Choose certificate: **"Johannes Millan (Distribution)"** (NOT "Mac App Distribution")
- "Distribution" = modern "Apple Distribution" certificate ✅
- "Mac App Distribution" = legacy "3rd Party Mac Developer Application" ❌
3. **CRITICAL**: When selecting the certificate, choose:
- ✅ **"Johannes Millan (Distribution)"** - Shows "For use in Xcode 11 or later"
- ❌ NOT "Johannes Millan (Mac App Distribution)"
**Why this matters:**
- "Johannes Millan (Distribution)" = modern "Apple Distribution" certificate → What electron-builder will use ✅
- "Johannes Millan (Mac App Distribution)" = legacy "3rd Party Mac Developer Application" → Will cause mismatch ❌

| Apple Portal Name | Portal Description | Internal Name | Electron-builder Preference | Use Case |
| ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------ | ----------------------------------- | --------------------------- | ------------------- |
| "Johannes Millan (Distribution)" | "For use in Xcode 11 or later" | Apple Distribution | ✅ Preferred | MAS builds (modern) |

**Key Insight:** Even though both "Distribution" and "Mac App Distribution" are for Mac App Store, electron-builder prefers the modern "Apple Distribution" certificate.
**Key Insight:** In the Apple Developer Portal, look for the certificate that says **"For use in Xcode 11 or later"** - this is the modern "Apple Distribution" certificate that electron-builder will use. The one without this description is the legacy certificate.
