Build App for iOS and Android from Pega Express
In Pega Express there is an option "Build App" (Settings -> Mobile App -> Button Build App)
The button "Build App" is inactive, I cant click it.
What do i need to prepare before i can build my app and deploy it natively to Android or iOS?

I am not familiar with "appropriate provisioning profiles and certificates", could you point me to tutorials for android and ios?
I am using Pega express 7.1.9 (cloud), I downloaded the pega 7 app to my iphone. Unfortunately scanning the QR Code (Settings -> Mobile App) doesnt work for me. No error message, it just keeps scsanning for ever.
The QR code you need to scan can be found in the system information overlay.
Here are some PDN articles with more information:

In 7.1.9, in the trial cloud environment, we only allow Pega employees to build custom apps directly from Express. Customers and partners can use the Pega 7 app from the respective app store and then scan the QR code to connect to their app. On-premises, you can build a custom mobile app from the Designer Studio by opening the application rule and navigating to the mobile tab: https://pdn.pega.com/how-build-and-brand-hybrid-mobile-application
In 7.2, we have added the ability to upload the appropriate provisioning profiles and certificates required to build a custom mobile app directly from the Pega Express authoring view.
