| 1 | +## Distribute using Expo Application Services |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +To be able to use Expo Application Services to upload your app to App Store and Google Play Store there are some configurations that need to be done on your side. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +### Build from github actions |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +To be able to trigger the eas-build github action you will have to add the `EXPO_TOKEN` secret to the repo settings. This secret is a required access token for your Expo account. https://expo.dev/settings/access-tokens |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +### Submit to Google Play Store |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +The first submission of the app needs to be performed manually. Learn more: https://expo.fyi/first-android-submission. Only after having a valid version submitted you can submit automatically using EAS. |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +To submit an app to google play store you will have to follow the steps in [Uploading a Google Service Account Key for Play Store Submissions with EAS](https://github.com/expo/fyi/blob/main/creating-google-service-account.md) guide, its super detailed and should not take you much time. |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +Once you've completed the guide you'll be able to submit to the store your EAS builds using the following command: |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +`eas submit --platform android` |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +### Submit to AppStore |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +1. Ensure your credentials are configured correctly in EAS. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal: |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +`eas credentials` |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +Follow the prompts to authenticate and select your Apple Developer account. |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +2. Build your app using Expo and EAS: |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +`eas build --platform ios` |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +This command initiates the build process for iOS using Expo Application Services. |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +3. Submit Your Build to the App Store |
| 34 | + Once your build is complete, you can submit it to the App Store using the following command: |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +`eas submit --platform ios` |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +This command will handle the submission of your build to the App Store using the credentials and configuration you provided. |
