Can't retrieve SHA-1 key from Windows CMD line

Question

keytool -exportcert -list -v \
-alias androiddebugkey -keystore %USERPROFILE%\.android\debug.keystore

This is the instructions from Google "Firebase in a weekend". However this is not working. I have tried to add my JRE to the path variable and have done ample research but I keep getting this error...

C:\>-alias androiddebugkey -keystore %CONNERGESBOCKER%\.android\debug.keystore
'-alias' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

thanks!

It's splitting it into two lines incorrectly.

Change the command to be a single line:

keytool -exportcert -list -v -alias androiddebugkey -keystore %USERPROFILE%\.android\debug.keystore

As a side note, to run it as 2 lines use the caret key (^) https://stackoverflow.com/a/69079/833647 – Ken Wolf Jun 14 '17 at 15:28

I found a easy way to get SHA-1

go to Gradle menu on right side of screen then Task->android->SigningReport . double click it. after its complete you will see SHA-1 in the "Run" menu at botton(Scroll up to see it).
