AAR libs no longer created in the output folder with Android Studio 3.0

Question

I have some lib modules in my Android project. Before updating Android Studio to the new 3.0 version and so the Gradle plugin to the 3.0.0 one, I was able to find the AAR file of my libs into the builder/output folder after building the project.

It seems that the AAR libs are no longer produced in this new version.

Is there any alternative way to get them again?

Update: since gradle 3.2.0, you need to use bundleReleaseAar instead of bundleRelease, as noted also in why android gradle maven publish artifact bundleRelease not found
