Apps Android App Bundle not generating in Android Studio

I am trying to launch my Ionic Angular app on the Google Play Store, but no .aab file is being generated in Android Studio.

When I open the app in Android Studio, I go to Build > Generate Signed Bundle / APK

Choose Android Signed Bundle

And enter the following details:

  • Key store path: C:\my_project_path\keystore
  • Key store password: myPassword
  • Key alias: key0
  • Key password: myPassword
  • Check Export encrypted key for enrolling published apps in Google Play App Signing
  • Encrypted key export path: C:\my_project_path\android
Click Next

  • Build Variants: release
Click Finish

After this, I don't get any prompts, error messages, etc. to say whether or not the APK was created.

When I go to android or android/app, there's no release folder appearing.

I'm able to run the app using an emulator without any issues also if that's useful.

If I go to `Build` > `Build Bundle(s) / APK(s)` > `Build Bundle(s)`, an `app-debug.aab` file is created in `android/app/build/outputs/bundle/debug`.

But can't find any `release` .aab file.

Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?
