Have you added the correct property for your android app & website on https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools ?

Also, have you verified your website via the Play Store's Developer portal? If not, here's a link to those instructions. For some reason these steps aren't really spelled out directly in the Firebase examples of App Indexing.
