No permission to use google internal application sharing

After uploading my .APK to Google Play Console for Internal Application Sharing, I get the message: You don't have permission to use internal app sharing for com.mygame.myappl.

I know that a similar question has been answered by Sonia Aug 20 at 15:05 but it did not help me because: a) I am an authorized uploader, since as the Play Console account owner, I created a list in "App releases->Internal app sharing->Manage uploaders" including my email (i.e. my google account email). b) I don't understand the Sonia answer item 2) i.e. check that "you are using your published application ID...". I don't have any "published application ID" since, following Google procedure to publish myappl.apk, I just defined a Title, included game description, requested Icons etc.. I have never been asked about any applicationID by Google Console. My .APK is the first one I am trying to upload. I developed it and its applicationID is com.mygame.invaders as defined in build.gradle. And I don't have any other APK uploaded. Can you help, please?

First of all I like to make it clear here, we don't need to publish app in release mode, to use "Internal App Sharing" feature.

I don't understand the Sonia answer item 2) i.e. check that "you are using your published application ID...".

This means: We need to first published our app in "Internal test track". See my screenshot.Google Console Internal test track

You can select your app from Google play Console, then select "App Release" from left Nav bar. After that Scroll down to "Internal test track" option. And select "Manage".

This is true, we don't need to publish app in release mode, but still we need to fill the all details, Like: "Store Listing", "Content Rating", "App Content", and "Pricing & distribution". You should see GREEN checkbox for all these options.

Have you verified that your account is whitelisted to be able to upload for internal app sharing?

See "Add authorized uploaders" in https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/9303479?hl=en
