Is Build required for uploading to appstore

Question

I am ready to upload my app to appStore. I read this http://soulwithmobiletechnology.blogspot.in/2011/03/how-to-create-app-on-app-store.html

But this article says after creating everything choose archive, Is Build is required before click Archive?

Answer 1

No.

When you click Archive it will build and create new ipa file. Than you will have to submit the application from the archievs screen. See screenshot for more information
