Google Play Console: Delete build from Internal Testing

Question

As a premise, I have an Android app submitted on Google Play.

I recently found myself submitting a build for Internal Testing (in Google Play Console) which I would now need to delete.

Is it possible, given this build it's on Internal Testing alone and it's the latest submitted, or the only way to go is by submitting a new build with an increased number?

Thank you!

Answer 1

The only way for the internal testing build to be somewhat deactivated but not fully deactivated is to upload a new version with an incremented version code to the internal testing section. If the problem would affect your status with your account or should not be released at all, this is the only way I'm afraid. It used to be possible, but now Google stores all artifacts uploaded to them.
