This is my first time posting a question on a forum because I’m facing an issue that I can’t resolve.
I’ve developed a mobile application using React Native with Expo to simplify the build and submission process to app stores. I have no problems on the Apple side. However, when building for Android, I receive an error message that didn’t appear earlier in the project.
The problem arose after adding a scheme
for deep linking.
My dependencies are working together without issues. I have also executed the command npx expo prebuild
beforehand to generate the android
folder.
I have my eas.json
file, and eas-cli
is properly installed.
Here is my eas.json
:
{
"cli": {
"version": ">= 7.5.0"
},
"build": {
"development": {
"developmentClient": true,
"distribution": "internal"
},
"preview": {
"android": {
"buildType": "apk"
}
},
"production": {
"env": {
"EXPO_PUBLIC_XXXXXX_API_URL": "https://xxx",
"EXPO_PUBLIC_XXXXXX_URL": "https://xxx",
"EXPO_PUBLIC_XXXXXX_WEBSOCKET": "https://xxx",
"EXPO_PUBLIC_XXXXXX_KEY": "xxx",
"EXPO_PRIVATE_XXXXXX": "xxx",
"EXPO_PUBLIC_PROJECT_ID": "xxx"
}
}
},
"submit": {
"production": {}
}
}
And my app.json:
{
"expo": {
"name": "AppName",
"slug": "appname",
"version": "1.0.0",
"orientation": "portrait",
"scheme": "appname",
"platforms": ["android"],
"android": {
"package": "com.appname.app",
"permissions": [
"CAMERA",
"INTERNET",
"MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS",
"READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE",
"RECORD_AUDIO",
"SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW",
"VIBRATE",
"WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"
],
"manifestPlaceholders": {
"appAuthRedirectScheme": "appname"
}
}
}
}
Error Message when running eas build -p android --profile production
:
Attribute data@scheme at AndroidManifest.xml requires a placeholder substitution but no value for <appAuthRedirectScheme> is provided.
My AndroidManifest.xml
is correctly configured.
-
Operating System: macOS
-
React Native Version: 0.74.6
What I’ve Tried:
-
Android Build Error: AndroidManifest.xml requires a placeholder substitution

Additional Information:
-
The issue started after adding the
scheme
for deep linking. -
The build works fine for iOS but fails for Android with the above error.
-
I’ve ensured that
eas-cli
is installed and up to date. -
I’ve executed
npx expo prebuild
to generate theandroid
folder. -
All dependencies seem to be working correctly.
Question:
How can I resolve the error related to the <appAuthRedirectScheme>
placeholder in AndroidManifest.xml
during the Android build with Expo?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. If you need more information, please let me know.

Do small change in app/build.gradle file.
I am also having the same issues even though I already included
in my android/app/build.gradle
