Build uploaded to Alpha channel shows as "Not Valid" in Oculus client

I've created a test application on the dev portal, set myself as a developer, entered a bunch of metadata, and uploaded a dummy build to my Alpha channel. The dev portal reports that the upload and processing were successful, and the app shows up in my Oculus client's Not Installed list, but there's a big X over the cover image and the message "Not Valid".

If I go into the app's details, everything looks right except version number/release notes, which is blank. I tried uploading the Oculus World demo as a build to see if it was something specific to the exe or folder layout, but that yields the same result.

Is there any way to tell what is wrong with it?
  • I've followed up with a private message, so we can work through and resolve. :)

  • In case anyone runs into this issue in the future and digs this up, the issue stems from adding yourself as a developer in the Platform settings of the app, but not adding yourself as a subscriber to the Alpha channel. Subscribe yourself to your Alpha channel and you should be good to go.

    Hi I'm trying to migrate builds from the store channel to alpha or beta channel.  I can't find the Release Channel options when I'm in the manage build menu and click on the action (...) button on the build.  How did you put a build onto the alpha channel?
    Thanks for the help!
  • I am having the same problem. I have uploaded a build to Alpha, added myself as a developer and subscribed to the Alpha channel. It says Not Valid in the store. I haven't uploaded any cover art or images. Is there something I am missing?
