Thanks for moving this over here :)

How are you using apkup? CLI or library? Could you provide a code snippet of what you called? This looks like it is probably an issue with your authentication key.

Hello here is the code snippet how i am using and i am using as library

import { Apkup } from 'apkup'

const auth = require('../key.json')
// const apkup = new Apkup(auth);

// require("../release/app.apk")

async function runApkUp(){

    try{

        const apkup = new Apkup({
            client_email: auth.client_email,
            private_key: auth.private_key
        });

        let data = await apkup.upload("release/app.apk",{
            track:"beta",
            releaseNotes: [
                {
                    language:"en-us",
                    text:"this is release done by automation.."
                }
            ]
        });

        if(data){
            console.log(` > ${data.packageName} version ${data.versionCode} is up!`);
        }
    }catch(error){
        console.log(error);
    }
}
runApkUp();

@sravan1000 Add a console.log of auth after the key is required. Make sure that client_email and private_key are actually defined.

DO NOT post the console.log results here :)

[sravan1000]

hey,

they were taken from key json file which was given from google play api (values were actually there)

there it was getting a Forbidden and you can log and see the results

Okay, sounds like it is an issue with the key itself then.

Try following the authentication instructions in the README and double-check to make sure that your service account has the Release manager permission.

[sravan1000]

okay, will check and let you know asap

[sravan1000]

Hello, thank you for the response i think it is because permissions of service account. Thank you

I'm glad you got it resolved 😃

That documentation on setting up the authentication could probably use an update. I think the flow has changed a bit since they were written.
