I'm an administrator of a company's Google Play management console. And there are already several APPs in production. Yesterday I received the request to provide the keystore for a new APP that is about to be released, but I could not find it. Where can I get the Keystore?

The keystore contains the key required to sign the applications before submitting them to Google Play. It is supposed to be kept securely as per the Android guidelines https://developer.android.com/studio/publish/app-signing.html#secure-key
You need to find the last person who built and signed an Android app. Most likely it's a developer but that depends on how your company is managed. It can also be handled by a continuous integration server if release builds are automated.

Hi, Ika. Thanks for the answer. Got it. All of the company's APPs were developed by a single developer, who lost Keystore. What should I do? – Felippe Tabachi da Cruz Apr 13 '17 at 20:43

There's no way around it as stated by many other posts http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4322367/i-lost-my-keystore-file .You have to find the keystore. – Ika Apr 14 '17 at 12:42
