you are probably trying to build an android apk. There are multiple environments for building apks, you did not specify which one you are using. For debug mode, many environments create keys automatically. For production mode you should carefully read all steps to take and ask questions on stackoverflow if a step does not succeed. Do not ask general question: it doesn't work, help! — anneb, Jul 14 '17 at 10:23

Probably you are talking about this:

1.) Create a key using

keytool -genkey -v -keystore my-release-key.keystore -alias alias_name keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000

2.) Sign the APK using:

jarsigner -verbose -sigalg SHA1withRSA -digestalg SHA1 -keystore my-release-key.keystore my_application.apk alias_name

I did the same as you say, but till I don't know where is the private or public key located. – Gaurav Takte Jul 14 '17 at 10:46
If you did it via command line my-release-key.keystore contains your keys. If you follow the signing via Android Studio as mentioned in th link, you can get a copy of your keys easily.' – Trishant Pahwa Jul 14 '17 at 11:16
