How to Distribute Apps to Google Play Store Automatically
- In order to deploy an application to Google Play Store, you must first create and upload your application to Google Play Store.
- Once you have uploaded your app, follow this article explaining how to create a Service Account.
- Then create and download a JSON key for the created account.
- Once you have finished Fusing and signing the app, click “Next.” You’ll be transferred to the “Deploy” tab.
- Click the toggle to enable “Automatic Deploy” in the App Deployment accordion and choose Google Play in the Deploy Service drop-down.
- Upload the JSON Service Account Key you have created earlier.
Finally, select the desired track and platform (explained in Google Play Console Help) – and then click on “Deploy My Fused App” on the button right.
The deployment process will take a few moments. Once successful, you’ll receive a message and an email notifying you that your enterprise app has been successfully distributed to the Play Store.
If you implement the security provider update process to the MNP app, the security provider update process will work with the Fused app.
After the deployment has been completed, make sure to log into the Play Store Console to complete rolling out your release.
