SHA-1 fingerprint of keystore certificate

Question

Is the method for getting an SHA-1 fingerprint the same as the method of getting the fingerprint? Previously, I was running this command:

It's not clear to me if the result I'm getting is the SHA-1 fingerprint. Can somebody clarify this?

Answer 1

Follow this tutorial for creating SHA1 fingerprint for Google Map v2

For Debug mode:

keytool -list -v -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android  

for Release mode:

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

example:

keytool -list -v -keystore C:\Users\MG\Desktop\test.jks -alias test 

On windows, when keytool command is not found, Go to your installed JDK Directory e.g. <YourJDKPath>\Java\jdk1.8.0_231\bin\, open command line and try the above commands for debug/release mode.

Another way of getting your SHA1 OR SHA-256 use ./gradlew signingReport

Answer 2

If you are using android studio use simple step

1. Run your project
2. Click on Gradle menu
3. Expand Gradle Tasks tree
4. Double click on android -> signingReport and see the magic
5. It will tell you everything on the Run tab

Result Under Run Tab If Android Studio < 2.2

From android studio 2.2
Result will be available under Run console but use highlighted toggle button

Or
Second Way is
Create new project in android studio New -> Google Maps Activity

then open google_maps_api.xml xml file as shown in pics you will see your SHA key
