Generate Sha1 Key Android Mac

Jul 08, 2018  Step 1: Generate keystore.jks File. As you do for generating signing apk. We can do that in Android Studio by clicking (Build - Generate Signed APK) then create new and fill the.

Keytool -list -v -keystore debug.keystore -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android Next to Press Enter Button that time will create SHA1 KEY, Step 5:The Xamarin Android Debug KEY is created successfully. You can Copy SHA1 KEY next to Create project in Developer console. Generate the SHA1 hash of any string. This online tool allows you to generate the SHA1 hash from any string. SHA1 is more secure than MD5.

Getting your SHA1 key is a little more complicated on a Windows system so, follow along with my steps here:

1) Open Command Prompt by pressing Start+R and typing cmd.exe.

2) Using Windows Explorer, find where your JDK directory is located (Usually Program Files >> Java) and copy the path.

3) In Command Prompt, type cd followed by the directory of your JDK’s bin directory. How are keys generated modulo. e.g: cd C:Program FilesJavajdk1.8.0_25bin is the command I use (Yours may vary).

4) Using Windows Explorer, find where your .android directory is located (Usually under Users >> [YOUR WINDOWS USERNAME]) and copy the path.

5) Now, use this command below:

Replacing [PATH_TO_.ANDROID_DIRECTORY] with the path you copied. Note that you should be running this command in terminal/command promptin your JDK’s bin directory(You did this in Step 3).

You should then be prompted with the password as normal which you can enter (The password is android) . After that, you’ll see the list of certificates printed to the screen. You want the SHA1 key.

In Command Prompt, it’s a little more tricky to copy the result so, to do that, follow these instructions:

1) Right-click on the Command Prompt.

2) Select Mark.

3) Highlight the SHA1 key.

4) Right-click again and the text will then be copied to your clipboard. You can now enter this on the Google Developer’s Console.

Hope it helps and if you have any problems with this, give me a shout and I'll be happy to help out :)

Harry, you're a rockstar. Treehouse wouldn't function without you, let me tell you. Unfortunately, it didn't quite work for me. I located the jdk-file, and I've got the path to the keystore (it's the same for me as for you), however it's telling me that the keystore doesn't exist, even though I can clearly see it (debug.keystore). I tried going directly to debug.keystore by adding it in the path, and now it asks me for the password to the keystore, however it's locking me out from typing anything, and pressing enter will just tell me that the password is incorrect!

Never mind, I managed to get the key now, I accidentally used / rather than , which apparently helped (oddly enough, since it found it both times). A warning came up that said that the keystore hasn't been verified due to the lack of password, but nonetheless I found and copied the SHA1 key. /visual-paradigm-license-key-generator.html.

Thanks a lot for posting this!

Awesome. Glad to hear you got it sorted in the end then :)

And thanks for the kudos :D Appreciate it!

I'm stuck,I got to the

but when I put in

I get an error: 'keytool' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Hey jenyufu!

You also need to go into the bin directory, so in your case, type:

Then try using the keytool :)

Let me know how it goes!

Harry James I did that, which is why command prompt showed: C:Program FilesJavajdk1.8.0_51>

but when I put in the keytool line, it still says keytool is not recognized as an internal or external command

Hey again jenyufu!

When the console shows C:Program FilesJavajdk1.8.0_51>, type cd bin.

Then, the console should show C:Program FilesJavajdk1.8.0_51bin> and you should be able to use the keytool (Notice the bin directory on the end).

Let me know how it goes or if you're still having any problems :)

I want to point out that the default password is 'android' without the quotes.

Also, since people seem to be having trouble, here is an example of what the command line can look like in step 5, different username of course.

After hitting the Enter key you should be prompted for the password. Just type the password, you may not see visual confirmation in the command window that you are actually type anything.

Thanks for the heads up Jose Rocha!

I must've forgotten about the default password there so will edit my post to include that :)
