Error when trying to sync Tap to Pay on iPhone capability

[alex-fournier]

Build/Submit details page URL

No response

Summary

My Expo app declares the following entitlements :

entitlements: {
  'com.apple.developer.proximity-reader.payment.acceptance': true,
}

eas build fails on the capability syncing step. It seems that the capability name for Tap to Pay is PR06102F2 on Apple side but EAS Build tries to PATCH TAP_TO_PAY_ON_IPHONE.

Managed or bare?
