# asc_post_app_encryption_declaration

Create an AppEncryptionDeclaration for an app. Required: appId + appDescription + containsProprietaryCryptography + containsThirdPartyCryptography + availableOnFrenchStore. Apple reviews the declaration server-side; state walks CREATED → IN_REVIEW → APPROVED / REJECTED. There is NO PATCH for declarations — create a new one to refresh the answers. Wire-key gotcha: Swift

## Why asc_post_app_encryption_declaration is rated Medium

The tool creates a new encryption declaration for an app, which is a reversible data creation operation. While encryption declarations are reviewed by Apple and have compliance implications, the action itself is Write (not Destructive—no data is deleted, and new declarations can be created to supersede old ones).

From the tool's own definition: "Create an AppEncryptionDeclaration for an app; state walks CREATED → IN_REVIEW → APPROVED / REJECTED; There is NO PATCH for declarations — create a new one to refresh the answers"
