how to publish an Android App Bundle in the Google Play Console?

Environment: Android Studio 3.2

After "Generate Signed Bundle or APK", I got a file "app.aab". How can I publish this file in Google Play Console and what is different between "Bundle" and APK?

Thank you.

How do I publish an app bundle on Google Play?

You can upload the App Bundle (. aab) file at the same place you used to upload your APKs in the Play Console. If this is an existing app, you will need to enroll in Play Signing first (Go to "App Releases" > "App Signing" in the Play Console) so that Google can sign the APKs it generates from the bundle.

The App Bundle allows Google to generate smaller and optimized APKs for your users by serving only the files they need for the device they have. See https://g.co/androidappbundle for more information.
