Im working on an Android application that includes the Google Maps API. To do that, I enabled this API from console developers

Maps SDK for Android

I created a credential, I set a restriction for App Android , I added the package of the app and the fingerprint as well and, on the API restriction tab, I selected Maps SDK for Android.
After that, in my application manifest, I wrote the key for google maps. When i build the app from Android studio everything is fine (my phone, one plus 6, is plugged on the pc). The map works as I want. But, if I try to install the generated APK (a signed APK from build -> Generate signed bundle/APK) the map not shows up and i get an error on logcat

    Ensure that the "Google Maps Android API v2" is enabled.

    Ensure that the following Android Key exists:

        API Key: YOUR_KEY_HERE

        Android Application (<cert_fingerprint>;<package_name>): *********;************

I can see 2 problems here:

This IP, site or mobile application is not authorized to use this API

and

Ensure that the "Google Maps Android API v2" is enabled

I really don't understand. Actually, I can't figure it out. I enabled everything and still not working. Is there something else to do?

Its not working as you haven't added SHA of your app's keystore on Google Api Console. You can get your keystore's SHA by using following command in Terminal of Android Studio:-

keytool -list -v -keystore {keystore_name} -alias {alias_name}

Note: Both name should have full path of file and if you path contains spaces add path in quotes.

Example:

keytool -list -v -keystore "C:UsersMGDesktopMy Projectstest.jks" -alias test
