DocumentPicker: all document types are greyed out 'On My iPhone'

Please provide the following:

  1. SDK Version: 44
  2. Platforms(Android/iOS/web/all): iOS
  3. Add the appropriate “Tag” based on what Expo library you have a question on.

I have a DocumentPicker that won’t launch when I specify a mime type with “type”, e.g. type: “text/csv”. The error in the console is “DocumentPicker requires the iCloud entitlement. If you are using ExpoKit, you need to add this capability to your App Id. See https://docs.expo.io/versions/latest/expokit/advanced-expokit-topics#using-documentpicker for more info.”

However, when I omit the type property, the document picker launches but all the files are greyed out, no matter the type.

Any help with this would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hey @jackcruden, can you let me know what device/OS version you are testing on? Also, is this happening with a standalone binary or Expo Go?

Hey @adamjnav . Testing on iOS Simulator (iPhone 13, iOS 15.2) in Expo Go.

DocumentPicker.getDocumentAsync({
    type: 'text/csv', // Entitlement error if this line is present. Dialog shows, but files greyed out if this line is removed.
    copyToCacheDirectory: false,
})

“expo”: “^44.0.0”,
“expo-document-picker”: “~10.1.3”,
