After updating to Android Studio to version 3.1, I do not get generated apk/aar files from build/outputs directory.
Can anyone has idea where these files actually located?
And yes I am getting it by manually generating from gradle tasks from the same location.
Well I get apk "build\intermediates\instant-run-apk\debug" here. But no clue about aar from my library project.

I have concluded this:
After updating Gradle tools version to 3.1.0 , you are not able to get the debug apk directly from build folder because of instant apk run support it generates slice apks in folder '\app\build\intermediates\split-apk\debug\slices'
If you want full apk then you may need to downgrade
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.0'
to
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.0'
It will still builds a full apk but don't support instant run.
Happy Coding !!!

You can still generate the APK.
Go to Build -> Build APK(s). APK will be generated and a notification will appear in the Android Studio.
