error: "EldersWidget" requires a provisioning profile with the App Groups feature. Select a provisioning profile in the Signing & Capabilities editor

I am new to iOS application code building and archiving. When I try to archive the project using the Xcode@5 task in my Azure DevOps YAML pipeline, I keep getting the same error (shared below). I have already uploaded the required certificates and two provisioning profiles—one for the main Elder app and one for the Elder Widget extension. I verified that the provisioning profiles and the .p12 certificate are valid, but I still encounter the error repeatedly. I am sharing my YAML file and the error logs below. Can someone please help me understand what is causing this issue and how to fix it?
