How to Set Up and Use Play Store
The Play Store MCP server connects AI assistants to the Google Play Console, enabling developers to deploy new Android app versions, promote releases between tracks (internal, alpha, beta, production), and query release statuses — all through natural language. Built with Kotlin, it uses a Google service account for authentication and communicates with the Google Play Developer API. Teams can use it to automate release workflows without manually navigating the Play Console UI.
Prerequisites
- Java 11+ (JDK) installed to run the JAR file
- A Google Play Console account with an app already created
- A Google Cloud service account with Play Developer API access enabled, with the JSON key file downloaded
- The service account granted appropriate permissions in Play Console (Release Manager or higher)
- An MCP-compatible client such as Claude Desktop
Download the pre-built JAR
Download the latest release JAR from the GitHub releases page. This is the simplest way to get started without setting up a Kotlin build environment.
# Download from: https://github.com/devexpert-io/play-store-mcp/releases
# Or build from source:
./gradlew clean build -x testSet up a Google service account
In Google Cloud Console, create a service account and enable the Google Play Android Developer API. Download the JSON key file. Then in Play Console, invite the service account email with Release Manager permissions.
Configure environment variables
Set the path to your service account JSON key file. Optionally set the default deployment track (defaults to 'internal' if not specified).
export PLAY_STORE_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_KEY_PATH=/path/to/service-account.json
export PLAY_STORE_DEFAULT_TRACK=internalAdd to your MCP client configuration
Configure Claude Desktop or your preferred MCP client to run the JAR file with the required environment variables.
{
"mcpServers": {
"play-store": {
"command": "java",
"args": ["-jar", "/path/to/play-store-mcp-all.jar"],
"env": {
"PLAY_STORE_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_KEY_PATH": "/path/to/service-account.json",
"PLAY_STORE_DEFAULT_TRACK": "internal"
}
}
}
}Verify by querying release status
Test the setup by asking the AI assistant to list current releases for one of your app packages. This validates the service account credentials and API connection.

Commands you can issue to manage your Play Store releases.
- "What versions of com.example.myapp are currently released in the Play Store?"
- "Upload the new AAB to the alpha track with a 25% rollout"
- "Promote the current internal build to beta"
- "Show me all tracks and their current release status for my app"
- "Deploy version 2.1.0 to production with 100% rollout"Troubleshooting Play Store
Authentication error or 'permission denied' from Play API
Verify the PLAY_STORE_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_KEY_PATH points to a valid service account JSON file. In Google Play Console, confirm the service account has been invited with at least Release Manager role for the specific app.
Java not found or JAR fails to start
Ensure Java 11+ is installed (java -version) and the path to the JAR file in the args array is correct and absolute. The JAR must be the -all variant that includes all dependencies.
Deploy fails with 'package name not found'
The app must already exist in Play Console before deploying via API. Create the app manually first and complete the store listing. The service account must also have access to that specific app.
