I'm trying to develop a simple app that uses Autofill Framework in Android Oreo for autofill email in the other apps. I just clone, build and run this project https://github.com/googlearchive/android-AutofillFramework but my application does not show in Autofill Service in the setting autofill service list. Does anybody have any idea?

Apps that provide autofill services must include a declaration that describes the implementation of the service. To specify the declaration, include a element in the app manifest. The element must include the following attributes and elements:

android:name attribute that points to the subclass of AutofillService in the app that implements the service.

android:permission attribute that declares the BIND_AUTOFILL_SERVICE permission.

intent-filter element whose mandatory child specifies the android.service.autofill.AutofillService action.

Optional meta-data element that you can use to provide additional configuration parameters for the service.

The following example shows an autofill service declaration:

<service
            android:name=".MyAutofillService"
            android:label="My Autofill Service"
            android:permission="android.permission.BIND_AUTOFILL_SERVICE">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.service.autofill.AutofillService" />
            </intent-filter>
            <meta-data
                android:name="android.autofill"
                android:resource="@xml/service_configuration" />
        </service>
