How to Generate Debug Symbols for Godot Android Builds on Windows for Play Console Upload

For Play Console Release: Use Release Build

For the build you actually upload to Play Console, it is recommended to use target=template_release rather than template_debug:

If you want separate debug symbol files (instead of them being embedded in the binary), add the separate_debug_symbols=yes flag :

Uploading to Play Console

• Upload the debug symbols that come from the same build as the AAB or APK you upload. Play Console will match them automatically if the identifiers are correct .
• If the build does not produce a ready-to-upload ZIP file, note that support for separating symbols for Google Play has historically not been simple and may require manual packaging .
• The exact folder structure required inside the ZIP for Play Console is not fully documented in the available sources, so you may need to check Google's official documentation or community guides for the final layout.

Important Notes

• Never mix symbols from different Godot versions or export templates. Debug symbols must only be used with the exact exported build they were generated for .
• If you did not modify the Godot source, it is safer to use the official native debug symbols provided by Godot for the same version as your official export templates .
• If you modified the Godot source or built custom templates, you must use the symbols from your own build, not the official ones .
• The available sources are limited regarding the exact output file location on Windows and the ZIP packaging process for Play Console. For precise file paths and packaging steps, further research may be needed.
