I am developing an app that has about 50 in-app purchases in 4 languages, what give me a lot of forms and subforms, boxes and sub boxes to fill using the excruciating and badly designed forms of iTunesConnect.
I am wondering if there's a way to automate that. I thought about using automator, but I am not sure if it will have the precision to do that. I have thought about applescript, but I don't know if it can be that precise to fill the right fields with the right information read from a file.
Is there a way to do that? what's the best approach?
thanks
btw: it would be possible to develop an application that could wrap a layer of automatism to that stuff?

Apple has provided a tool for this kinf of job, it's called "Application Loader". You can get it from iTunes Connect (subsection "Manage Your Applications").
When you launch Application Manager (and enter your iTunes credentials), choose: 1) Create New Package 2) New from file 3) Choose an CSV spreadsheet with all the metadata about your IAPs.
The spreadsheet should contain all the fields about the IAP as columns and different IAPs as rows. It should be quite self-explanatory from there on. Notice that you still have to provide separate screenshot files for each IAP.

Ah. I found it, but have not tried it - and it was not free :/

Otherwise, it should be possible to use curl where you can set login and cookies.
