for the "out" bundle issue, this seems indeed an issue. for the second one reported adding "debugUpdateAPKArtifact" to the path, this WAI as there can more more than one transformer and we need to automatically separate them so they do not use the same output folder. for #3, I will look at it but it might be difficult to change it at this time.

Hello, this is a P1 S1 issue for a while now, and it's blocking us from upgrading to AGP 4.2 and further. What's the current status? And do you have plans to backport it to 4.2.x?

no we don't have a plan to backport this. why is this blocking you from upgrading ?

We sign apk's and bundles via internal service, and i don't know another way to interact with artifacts; Yesterday i ended up with some ugly workaround: https://github.com/avito-tech/avito-android/pull/1085/files#diff-b898cc20fedebe394439bb37ffb91d3366a1f9a6d359dbdebca79af8a079f911 I'd be glad if you'll point me out how can it be done better.

I commented on the merge request but to summarize :

you can set your signing tasks output folder to wherever you need to be :

artifacts.use(target.tasks.signedApkTaskProvider(this)).configure { signedDirProperty.set(File("/path/to/where/you/want/your/signed/files")) }

if you don't set it, then we will set a directory automatically.

Thanks, Jerome!

I checked that we do have correct behavior for FILE based artifacts like bundle :

> Task :app:debugUpdateArtifact
originalArtifact: /usr/local/google/home/jedo/src/studio-main/out/apiTests/Kotlin/bugTest/app/build/intermediates/bundle/debug/signDebugBundle/app-debug.aab
updatedArtifact: /usr/local/google/home/jedo/src/studio-main/out/apiTests/Kotlin/bugTest/app/build/outputs/bundle/debug/app-debug.aab

however, we still seem to not be consistent for the DIRECTORY based artifacts like APK:

> Task :app:debugUpdateAPKArtifact
Input folder: /usr/local/google/home/jedo/src/studio-main/out/apiTests/Kotlin/bugTest/app/build/outputs/apk/debug
Output folder: /usr/local/google/home/jedo/src/studio-main/out/apiTests/Kotlin/bugTest/app/build/intermediates/apk/debug
Input file: /usr/local/google/home/jedo/src/studio-main/out/apiTests/Kotlin/bugTest/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk

Alex, can you have a look ?

correction, I was not correct about FILE being correct.

Instead of :

updatedArtifact: /usr/local/google/home/jedo/src/studio-main/out/apiTests/Kotlin/bugTest/app/build/outputs/bundle/debug/app-debug.aab

it should be

updatedArtifact: /usr/local/google/home/jedo/src/studio-main/out/apiTests/Kotlin/bugTest/app/build/outputs/app-debug.aab
``

Two requests are created as they are API changes b/241581686 (set artifact name for transformation) and b/241582907 (change string to OutputFile)

Fix will be available in Android Studio F/AGP 8.0 Canary 2 Release

I tried to use it and at first look, it looks like everything works as expected. Thanks!

The big issue is, that the current AGP 7.4.0 is broken. I tried to use this API and it is still broken in 7.4.0, it is probably really in AGP 8 :-(

Huge problem!

Our system has been running for a few years with no issues, now this has crashed our ability to create PDFs from our system...

Getting same exception, even on this simple piece of code

function htmlToPDF() {

  var html = "<h1>Hello world</h1>";
  var blob = Utilities.newBlob(html, "text/html", "text.html");
  var pdf = blob.getAs("application/pdf");

  DriveApp.createFile(pdf).setName("text.pdf");  // Getting the error here!!!
}

We are also experiencing this issue. Resolve that!!!

I am the author of Email Notifications for Google Forms add-on that relies on this service to convert Google Form responses to PDF files.

As Google has not provided any ETA for this bug, we have rolled out our own HTML to PDF solution using Google's Puppeteer service and it is now integrated with the Google Forms add-on.

If anyone requires a copy of my code for creating PDF files from HTML content using Chrome Puppeteer, please email me at amit@labnol.org
