Create a new version
When you’re ready to distribute a new version of your app, you create a version using the same app record you created for the original version.
Keep in mind that it's not possible to revert to a previous version on the App Store if you have an issue with your app. You must create and submit a new version. You can only create a new version if the current version status is Ready for Distribution.
Learn about creating a new version using App Store Connect API.
