title: Is there a way to link an Android app to Admob when it is only published in alpha?
body: <p>I have an android app that is in alpha and being tested by a group of people. I have not yet published it publicly. The app has Admob integrated and I have set up an Admob and gotten an id for the app and so on.</p>
  
  <p>The problem is that there seems to impossible to link the app in admob. The dialog that shows up when clicking "Link your app" has a search field, but the app is not searchable since it is only published in alpha, though it is available on google play for the members of the alpha test group.</p>

  <p>So the question is, is it even possible to link an android app that is currently only published in alpha to Admob? If it is, how is that done?</p>
