Generate Signed Bundle/APK option is missing in Android Studio


I've just set up a new development machine for a Flutter project and need to deploy an APK to tester on the Play Store.

Coming from iOS, I'm not familiar deploying to the Play Store, but in my research I found that I need to create a key store using options found in Build > Generate Signed Bundle/APK in Android Studio. I am using Android Studio Arctic Fox 3.1. This option Generate Signed Bundle/APK does not exist under the Build menu or anywhere else that I can find.

The Flutter and Android SDKs are installed and paths are set. I can compile and run locally as well as build an APK or AppBundle but I cannot generate the necessary keys for Play Store submission.

Did I miss a setup step in the Android Studio installation? Since this is the latest version of Android Studio, did this option get moved or replaced by something else? Thanks!
