android - Google Play Console says internal test is available, but it's not

Question

I have created an internal release of an Android app on the Google Play console. When I copy the opt-in link and paste it into the browser, and then click the link to install the app, I get this Not Found page.

According to the Play Console, the Internal Testing Track is not active, but it's been 5+ days.

Here's what's not the problem:

• All the app details are filled in, and the Play Console says the app is available to internal testers
• I am logged into a Google account that is on the internal testers list
• The release is over five days old, so it should be done processing
• The opt-in link is available

Answer 1

The answer is that 48 hours may be considered typical, but my internal test was not ready until a full week after its upload to the Play Console. During that week, I put in a ticket with Google developer support, but never got a response. My recommendation is to wait for a week, and then put in a support ticket if it's still not up by then, and hope they respond.
