• With this release the dsym-upload-tools are no longer included inside the XCFramework. The dsym-upload-tools are available in the dsym-upload-tools folder of the https://github.com/newrelic/newrelic-ios-agent-spm Swift Package Manager repository. Please copy this dsym-upload-tools directory to your applications source code directory if you are integrating the New Relic iOS Agent by copying XCFramework into project or using cocoapods.

Please use the run script below in your Xcode build phases to perform symbol upload steps during app builds in Xcode.
