Question Create symbols.zip for Android

Is there an option to make sure that UCB creates symbols.zip for Android? There's a checkbox in Build Settings dialog in Unity, but didn't find this option in UCB.

I would like to upload these to Firebase to desymbolicate crash logs (https://firebase.google.com/docs/crashlytics/get-started?platform=unity#set-up-symbol-uploading)

 

Hi.
Try this code:

Code (CSharp):

1. #if UNITY_CLOUD_BUILD
2.     public static void PreExport(UnityEngine.CloudBuild.BuildManifestObject manifest)
3.     {
4.         EditorUserBuildSettings.androidCreateSymbols = AndroidCreateSymbols.Public;
5.     }
6. #endif

Call this code from Pre-Export Method.

 

Thanks, did anyone manage to upload them to Firebase from UCB?

 

You can upload Symbols manualy.

 

Hey @vovkas would you mind elaborating on what you meant by you can upload symbols manually?

Thanks in advance!

 

Hi. At Unity Game Service > Dev Ops (tab) > Cloud Diagnostics > Debugging Symbols > Upload Symbol File

 

Has anyone got the above code snippet to actually work on Unity Cloud Build? When I have tried, I get the following errors from Unity Cloud Build:

error CS0103: The name 'EditorUserBuildSettings' does not exist in the current context

error CS0103: The name 'AndroidCreateSymbols' does not exist in the current context

It seems that the class and the enum aren't available to Unity Cloud Build, only locally. (Unity 2021.3.2, though I also tried 2022.1.15.)

Native debug symbols are really nice to have for the Play Store. I feel like I must be missing something! Is there really no simple way to tell UCB to create them?

 

I also tried configuring Gradle to bundle the symbols into the aab archive, but the version of the plugin that ships with Unity isn't new enough. Since there doesn't seem to be a way to get Unity Cloud Build to build with a custom Gradle, that route isn't available either.

 

A-ha. I had missed a critical part of the solution. I had been trying to pre-process using
IPreprocessBuildWithReport (as I normally would), whereas I needed to call the pre-export method specifically by name in Unity Cloud Build.

So:

Code (CSharp):

1. #if UNITY_CLOUD_BUILD
2.  
3. using UnityEditor;
4.  
5. namespace MyApp.Editor
6. {
7.     public static class PreExportCloudBuild
8.     {
9.      
10. #if UNITY_ANDROID
11.     public static void PreExportAndroid(UnityEngine.CloudBuild.BuildManifestObject manifest)
12.     {
13.         EditorUserBuildSettings.androidCreateSymbols = AndroidCreateSymbols.Public;
14.     }
15. #endif
16.  
17.     }
18. }
19.  
20. #endif

And then called MyApp.Editor.PreExportCloudBuild.PreExportAndroid as a named Pre Export Method in Unity Cloud Build.

 

Can anyone guide me to create an icon?
