I'm trying to get SHA-1 certificate for my Android Firebase project, following this instructions https://developers.google.com/android/guides/client-auth. When I enter this command in my cmd:

keytool -exportcert -list -v \ -alias androiddebugkey -keystore %USERPROFILE%\.android\debug.keystore 

I supposed to be asked to enter password, where I should enter android. But I am getting this:

So, what am I doing wrong here ?

    it's the \ causing problems, remove that and type it on one line Commented Aug 3, 2017 at 21:41

This worked like a charm. The problem is that its not specific when they say to add the SHA-1 fingerprint for firebase of which file and from where exactly.

The issue is the slash (\) in your command. Make sure it is all on one line and remove any slashes (\). Also keep in mind that the command prompt interprets commands on a single line, so do not spread the command across multiple lines as it will treat everything on a new line as a different command. Put everything on one line.
