Can't generate Appx with Sign

[poumason]

I can use pwabuilder to generate Appx for Windows 10. If I want to test appx on Xbox, the appx must be signed. So I use the command: pwabuilder.cmd package myAppx -p windows10 -S But CloudAppx response failed message: The CloudAppX service returned an error - Not Found (404): Cannot POST /v3/buildsigned I don't know the message.

Yes, the sign tool is blocked by azure, so we can't run it. However we do generate the pri file, so for the xbox you can laod it as a loose package within the portal page. There are some instructions within the blog post (hwa = pwa , manifoldjs = pwabuilder) :) https://blogs.windows.com/buildingapps/2016/09/30/uwp-hosted-web-app-on-xbox-one-app-dev-on-xbox-series/#9UuHrTtDdlRcRYZc.97

thanks!

Thank your response. I already solve it, but I forget to close the issue. I use SignTool.exe to add SHA into the appx, such as:

cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\x86\"
SignTool sign /fd SHA256 /a /f "C:\myApp\PWA\Store packages\windows10\package\App1_StoreKey.pfx" "C:\myApp\PWA\Store packages\windows10\package\windows.appx"

App1_StoreKey.pfx must be use VS2017 to create it with associate Project of Dev Center.
