An exception has occurred: issuerId is required

I am trying to upload the ipa to the testflight using the azure pipelines. This was working fine before but all of a sudden I am receiving this error message,

Please note this was working fine before and nothing has been changed from the code or from the configuration level. Can anyone provide a direction on what was going wrong here? Thanks in advance

I was able to get this up and running by changing vmImage to macOs-12.

Change

pool: name: Azure Pipelines vmImage: 'macOS-latest' demands: - xcode 

to

pool: name: Azure Pipelines vmImage: 'macOS-12' demands: - xcode
