React Native iOS - How to add Provisioning Profile to ipa submitted to Appstore

I have finished my React Native application and the iOS version works properly on a simulator when I run: npx react-native run-ios

I then the follow the instructions on the documentation to create a release:

https://reactnative.dev/docs/running-on-device#3-build-app-for-release

I then looked for the .app file created by running:

npx react-native run-ios --configuration Release

I then created a folder called Payload and put the .app file inside and zipped it up.After zipping the folder I changed the .zip extension to .ipa

When I submit the app to the Appstore I get the following errors:

ERROR ITMS-90174: "Missing Provisioning Profile - Apps must contain a provisioning profile in a file named embedded.mobileprovision."
