          app-type: '<apk-or-ipa>'                    // The app file type, 'apk' for Android and 'ipa' for iOS.
          kobiton-app-id: 'kobiton-app-id'       // When uploading a new app version, assign the app's existing Kobiton ID.
          kobiton-app-access: 'private'               // Always set to 'private'.
