The “Target not eligible under Free Trial” error occurs because iOS builds require macOS build agents, which are not included in the Unity DevOps free trial. To enable iOS builds, users must upgrade to a consumption-based (pay-as-you-go) DevOps plan.
Symptoms:
- I see the error message
Error: Target not eligible under Free Trialwhen I try to build for iOS - Unable to perform iOS builds using Unity DevOps free trial
Cause:
This error occurs because iOS builds require macOS build agents, which are not included in the Unity DevOps Free Trial.
The DevOps free trial currently offers:
200 build minutes
Only for Windows build agents
Resolution:
To build for iOS, you must upgrade your DevOps plan to a consumption-based pricing billing model or "pay as you go", following the steps below:
- In the Unity Dashboard, select DevOps > Overview.
- Select the Upgrade plan button.
- Enter your organization details and address.
- Add your card details and select Place order.
Additional Information:
Unity plans to offer 100 free Mac build minutes later this quarter. This change will be announced directly on the Unity Dashboard when available.
