XCode export app, wildcard error

Question

I am developing a Swift iOS app for in-house distribution and I am having trouble exporting the app - I get: "Wildcard App IDs can not be used to create In House provisioning profiles. Please use an Explicit App ID."

In the Member Center, I have created an explicit App ID:

In the Member Center, I have also created an iOS Provisioning Profile for Distribution:

In XCode, I have downloaded the distribution provisioning profile (under preferences > Accounts):

This is a Swift iOS app (my first) and I am trying to export the app (.ipa & .plist file), so that I can deploy it from an Intranet site. Note: I do not have an MDM (nor do I want to purchase one at this time). Xcode version: 7.2.1.

What am I missing?

Edit 2/15/2016: This SO Post is about a similar issue, but the steps outlined there did not resolve the issue for me.

I faced the same problem and almost spent one day to solve the problem.

When I encountered the problem, I thought it was an error related with invalid distribution certificate or provisioning profile. I renewed certificates and all other stuff. Nothing worked! Neither certificates nor provisioning profiles were the root cause.

I have seen an announcement on Apple Developer page. Apple's WWDR Certificate was expiring and newest one available on that page. I updated that certificate and it worked!

Steps you should follow:

1. Open Keychain Access and remove expired Apple Worldwide Developer Relations Certification Authority from certificates.
2. Download new certificate as suggested.
3. Be sure that Apple Worldwide Developer Relations Certification Authority is located under Systems keychain, not in login.
4. Open XCode (If already, close and then open)
5. Clean your project.
6. Select your valid signing certificates and provisioning profiles. (You don't need to refresh your certificates or profiles as annoucement suggested)
7. Hit Archive button!

Hope this may help someone else.
