Build not available on iTunes Connect for internal

I am currently trying to set up iOS deployment for a React-Native app, using Fastlane through CircleCI, and I am having an issue where I get to pilot in my fastlane script, I upload the build to iTunes Connect, but the build disappears from being used for TestFlight Internal Testers. If I archive locally and upload the build to iTunes Connect, it will be available for testing.

My Fastfile, using version 2.51.0

platform :ios do
  lane :deploy_staging do
    match(
      type: "adhoc",
      force: true
    )

    increment_build_number(
      xcodeproj: './ios/MyApp.xcodeproj'
    )

    gym(
      export_method: "ad-hoc",
      scheme: "MyApp Staging",
      project: "./ios/MyApp.xcodeproj"
    )
    pilot(
      skip_submission: false,
      distribute_external: false,
    )

    clean_build_artifacts
    git_add(
      path: '.'
    )
    git_commit(
      path: '.',
      message: "Deployed new staging version #{lane_context[SharedValues::BUILD_NUMBER]} [skip ci]",
    )
    push_to_git_remote(
      local_branch: ENV["CIRCLE_BRANCH"],
      remote_branch: ENV["CIRCLE_BRANCH"]
    )
  end
end

My circle.yml

  environment:
    PATH: '$PATH:$HOME/node/node-v8.1.3-darwin-x64/bin'

deployment:
  pre:
    - gem install fastlane
  staging:
    branch: staging
    commands:
      - npm run build:ios
      - fastlane deploy_staging

Output from the CircleCI test

Build completed processing on iTunes Connect

Build not available (invisible) on TestFlight tab

I tried debugging this by archiving locally with the same certificates and profiles, but it uploads successfully and I am able to distribute to internal testers on TestFlight.

Thanks very much for the help.

Found the solution that helped resolve this issue.

Two parts seem to help fix it

Changing profile used from adhoc to appstore

a. I had to generate the appstore provisioning profile through match:
```
 fastlane match appstore -a com.myapp.app.staging
```
Adding include_symbols and include_bitcode to my gym build parameters.

Processing took longer than normal, but after processing, it returns to the build list where pilot recognizes it and it posts to TestFlight.

My new Fastfile:

  lane :deploy_staging do    
    match(
      type: "appstore"
    )

    increment_build_number(
      xcodeproj: './ios/MyApp.xcodeproj'
    )

    gym(
      include_symbols: true,
      include_bitcode: true,
      export_method: "app-store",
      scheme: "MyApp Staging",
      project: "./ios/MyApp.xcodeproj"
    ) # Build your app - more options available

    pilot

    clean_build_artifacts
    git_add(
      path: '.'
    )
    git_commit(
      path: '.',
      message: "Deployed new staging version #{lane_context[SharedValues::BUILD_NUMBER]} [skip ci]",
    )
    push_to_git_remote(
      local_branch: ENV["CIRCLE_BRANCH"],
      remote_branch: ENV["CIRCLE_BRANCH"]
    )

  end
