Android - Sign your Android App for Release
Start
  Sign your App
  • In the menu bar, click Build > Generate Signed APK.
  • Select the module you would like to release from the drop down and click Next.
  • To Create a new keystore, click Create new. Now fill the required information and press ok in New Key Store.

    • New Key Store (opens new window)

    Generate Signed APK (opens new window)

  • On the Generate Signed APK Wizard fields are already populated for you if you just created new key store otherwise fill it and click next.

  • On the next window, select a destination for the signed APK, select the build type and click finish.

    		•
      Configure the build.gradle with signing configuration

    You can define the signing configuration to sign the apk in the build.gradle file.

    You can define:

    • storeFile : the keystore file
    • storePassword: the keystore password
    • keyAlias: a key alias name
    • keyPassword: A key alias password

    You have to define the signingConfigs block to create a signing configuration:

    android {
    signingConfigs {

        myConfig {
            storeFile file("myFile.keystore")
            storePassword "xxxx"
            keyAlias "xxxx"
            keyPassword "xxxx"
        }
    }
    //....
}

    Then you can assign it to one or more build types.

    android {

    buildTypes {
        release {
            signingConfig signingConfigs.myConfig
        }
    }
}
