Issue adding shipyard-android@revenuecat.com to Google Play Internal Testing

Hi Team! I'm following the instructions for submitting my Android app for the Shipyard contest.
I am trying to add shipyard-android@revenuecat.com to my Internal Testing testers list in the Google Play Console, but I am receiving an error: 'Your changes couldn't be saved because shipyard-android@revenuecat.com does not exist.'
This usually means the email isn't registered as a Google Account. Is there a different email or a Google Group we should use instead?
Thanks!

    I have added mine, and it was effortless. How did u get this email you're trying to add?. You will go to the Google Cloud console to create a service account. It is the service account email u created in the cloud console u will now add to the Play Console.

    Thanks for the tip Olubunmi, but I think there's a bit of a mix-up between the two different steps. I got that specific email directly from the official Shipyard submission guide here: https://www.revenuecat.com/blog/engineering/how-to-submit-your-app-for-shipyard/ where it explicitly tells us to add it as an internal tester so the judges can physically download the build. You're right that we need to create a Service Account in the Google Cloud Console to get the JSON key for the RevenueCat dashboard, but the Internal Testing track in the Play Console requires a registered Google user account, and for some reason, Google is rejecting their official contest email as non existent. Hopefully the RevenueCat team can get it registered on their end soon so we can all finish our submissions

    Okay, I think I understand you now, Pallega. The problem is with RevenueCat, I guess. They should upload a viable email. Got the same error. It says the email does not exist
