gpd-release-flow

Release flow (Google Play)

Use this skill when you need to upload a build, publish to a track, or manage rollout.

Preconditions

• Ensure credentials are set (GPD_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_KEY).
• Use a new version code for each upload.
• Always pass --package explicitly.

Preferred end-to-end commands

Upload and release to a track

gpd publish upload app.aab --package com.example.app
gpd publish release --package com.example.app --track internal --status completed

Promote between tracks

gpd publish promote --package com.example.app --from-track beta --to-track production

Manual sequence with edit lifecycle

Use when you need precise control or multiple changes in one commit.

# 1. Create edit
EDIT_ID=$(gpd publish edit create --package com.example.app | jq -r '.data.editId')

# 2. Upload build without auto-commit
gpd publish upload app.aab --package com.example.app --edit-id $EDIT_ID --no-auto-commit

# 3. Configure release
gpd publish release --package com.example.app --track internal --status draft --edit-id $EDIT_ID

# 4. Validate and commit
gpd publish edit validate $EDIT_ID --package com.example.app
gpd publish edit commit $EDIT_ID --package com.example.app

Staged rollout

gpd publish release --package com.example.app --track production --status inProgress --version-code 123
gpd publish rollout --package com.example.app --track production --percentage 5
gpd publish rollout --package com.example.app --track production --percentage 50
gpd publish rollout --package com.example.app --track production --percentage 100

Halt or rollback

gpd publish halt --package com.example.app --track production --confirm
gpd publish rollback --package com.example.app --track production --confirm

Track status

gpd publish status --package com.example.app --track production
gpd publish tracks --package com.example.app

Notes

• Use --status draft first for risky releases.
• Use --confirm only after reviewing gpd publish status output.
