My test MapKit desktop application generates the following issue, which I do not understand, nor for the moment would I know how to address a solution. I found searching the documentation for a possible fit-for-purpose solution to be extremely elusive with my current limited MapKit knowledge … :]
I believe the application’s PList file, Sandbox, and the associated entitlement settings to be correctly identified. The PList file contains: Privacy - Location Usage Description.
That said, the warning I am concerned about happens to be as follows:
2023-06-01 14:20:37.106631-0600 My_Map[2265:69866] [suggestions] Rejecting connection missing Suggestions entitlement; pid: 0, entitlementKey: com.apple.private.suggestions.contacts
Building the application presents the [Authorization Modal], where the application generates a series of issues when the application starts.
The [Location Manager] authorization [STATUS] changed to: <=== (As expected) [This comment occurs because I previously initiated the application to test].
The [STATUS] is [NOT DETERMINED]. <=== (As expected) [The application realizes I rebuilt the application, therefore the [MODAL] is presented again].
[The application will ignore the [MODAL] presentation if I did not rebuild the application].
The application displays the following information, listed below, [BEFORE] I acknowledge the connection:
2023-06-01 16:06:28.466642-0600 My_Map[3087:122133] [default] Failed to get state for list identifier com.apple.LSSharedFileList.ApplicationRecentDocuments Error: Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=1 "Operation not permitted" (Access to list denied) UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=Access to list denied}

location manager failed with error Error Domain=kCLErrorDomain Code=1 "(null)"
2023-06-01 16:06:30.570014-0600 My_Map[3087:122133] [MKCoreLocationProvider] CLLocationManager(<CLLocationManager: 0x600003df9960>) for <MKCoreLocationProvider: 0x6000013a7900> did fail with error: Error Domain=kCLErrorDomain Code=1 "(null)
The application presents the following information, and presents the [LOCATION IDENTIFIER – BLUE PULSING DOT] after I acknowledge access [MODAL] with [OK].
The [Location Manager] authorization [STATUS] changed to: <=== (As expected)
The [STATUS] is [AUTHORIZED]. <=== (As expected)
I did not set the [REGION] nor the [SPAN], but the application identifies the [DEFAULT LOCATION] information as follows: <=== (As expected)
The [LOCATION]: Optional(<+51.04022217,-114.09052392> +/- 35.00m (speed -1.00 mps / course -1.00) @ 2023-06-01, 4:06:33 PM Mountain Daylight Saving Time)
As a side note, I discovered I must have my [WIFI] connection to be active too ... !!!
GPS is not and never can be an option ... :]
A suggestion as to how I might address, and possibly understand this issue would be very welcome … :] I believe my application is missing a required entitlement to which I do not know how to access, and or initiate.
I must thank you in advance for your time ... :]
Best regards,
