Improve GraphQL error during eas build -p ios

[EvanBacon]

eas.json

{
  "builds": {
    "android": {
      "release": {
        "workflow": "generic"
      }
    },
    "ios": {
      "release": {
        "distribution": "internal",
        "workflow": "generic"
      }
    }
  }
}

Fails after running eas build -p ios

Failed to setup credentials.
    CombinedError: [GraphQL] Unexpected server error.

Re running throw a different error message in the same place

✔ Synced capabilities
Failed to setup credentials.
    Error: Run 'eas device:create' to register your devices first

• expo init blahblah2 -> choose bare minimal
• eas build:configure
  It generated the following eas.json:

  { 
    "build": {
      "release": {},
      "development": {
        "distribution": "internal",
        "android": {
          "gradleCommand": ":app:assembleDebug"
        },
        "ios": {
          "buildConfiguration": "Debug"
        }
      }
    },
    "submit": {
      "release": {}
    } 
  }
  

• eas build -p ios --profile development
• Hit ENTER a few times.

Result:

  Build details: https://expo.dev/accounts/dsokal/builds/XYZ

  Waiting for build to complete. You can press Ctrl+C to exit.
  ⠏ Build queued...

It seems it's not an issue anymore.

Similar issue when attempting first build on a new app for internal beta testing:

eas build --platform ios

✔ Logged in and verified
› Team ****
› Provider ****
✔ Bundle identifier registered ****
✔ Synced capabilities: No updates
✔ Synced capability identifiers: No updates
✔ Fetched Apple distribution certificates
✔ Generate a new Apple Distribution Certificate? … yes
✔ Created Apple distribution certificate
Failed to setup credentials.
    CombinedError: [GraphQL] Unexpected server error.

Achieved (likely) manual resolution and a when I remembered that I needed to do the manual Beta App Information and Beta App Review Information form at https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/apps/***/testflight/test-info

Next run of eas build --platform ios was clean. Including notes in case this is a particular error which can be differentiated/piped through meaningfully.

Apologies, I see the open umbrella issue now; will comment there instead.
