Generating APK with Support for Proxying into Network Traffic

The AppLovin team may request a debuggable APK that can proxy into networking traffic by using Android’s Network Security Configuration feature.

These instructions show you how to create such an APK:

1. If you have not already done so, create a new XML file: res/xml/network_security_config.xml.
2. In your application manifest AndroidManifest.xml, add the configuration to your application attribute:

   <manifest>
     <application android:networkSecurityConfig="@xml/network_security_config">
       ⋮
     </application>
   </manifest>

3. In the res/xml/network_security_config.xml file, add the following:

   <network-security-config>
     <debug-overrides>
       <trust-anchors>
         <certificates src="system" />
         <certificates src="user" />
       </trust-anchors>
     </debug-overrides>
   </network-security-config>

4. Create a debug build.
   • On native Android: build with a debug configuration.
   • On Unity: select Development Build in Build Settings.
