Wildcard App ID

I'm trying to use a wildcard App ID for the Apple build but I get the following error when I use an App ID like "something.something.*".

     Error: The App Id can contain only alphanumeric characters, the period (.), and the underscore (_).

As far as I know, you can´t use wildcard in App Id. Why you want use this?

I have to hand the app off to my client so he can upload it to his account. I thought a wildcard would let us both keep the App ID in our Apple profiles. If that's not the case then maybe my question is more about how to manage an App ID I need to hand off to the client.

The first part of the wildcard id - xxx.yyy.* (xxx) is generated by Apple - bundle seed ID. 

Are you changing that?

The App ID you specify in the Build Settings on the Project tab cannot include wildcards. The App ID you create for your mobile provisioning file in your Apple Developer account can contain wildcards. You will need to add your client's device identifier (a very long number in the "Devices" section of your apple dev account) to that mobile provisioning file to allow it to be installed on your client's device.
