build:ios impossible with 2FA

Please provide the following:

  1. SDK Version: 33
  2. Platforms(Android/iOS/web/all): iOS

Running expo build:ios asks me to log in with my apple ID, which I do. After a short pause, two things happen simultaneously - my iPad bloops at me asking whether I should authorise a sign in from somewhere near London, and expo build:ios fails with:

Authentication with Apple Developer Portal failed!
Reason: Unknown reason, raw: "Unauthorized Access"

It’s as if expo gets as far as the 2FA prompt and kills itself.

Disabling 2FA is impossible as per Two-factor authentication for Apple ID – Apple Support (UK), and I don’t own a mac, so building with XCode is also impossible.

What do I do?

Well apparently it’s completely intermittent. I attempted to demonstrate how silly it was that it doesn’t work to a friend, and it worked.
