Follow this steps:-

mostly people have to problem run the gradle command line so you can use like this:

1) Open terminal.

2) Go to your project work space

3) ./gradlew

(Note if permission denies error use this command- chmod 744 gradlew and again run ./gradlew)

(4) ./gradlew assemble -P apiKey=Your fabric api key

Now you can fully secret your api key but remember one thing your fabric.properties looks like that

fabric.properties:-

apiSecret=”Your fabric secret key” apiKey=”Your fabric api key”

Enjoy! You dont need to write your fabric key in your AndroidManifest.xml....

As a heads up, you may need to disable Instant Run on Android Studio for this solution to work. – Will Dec 12 '17 at 20:03
