Android Studio 2.0, which was released a few days ago now supports integration with Google App Indexing.
Google App Indexing Integration & Testing has been added directly to the studio. If you “add App Indexing into your app helps you re-engage your users,” says Google. “In the first preview of Android Studio 2.0 you could add indexing code stubs into your code. With the beta release you can now test and validate your URL links in your app all within the IDE.”
Here are the relevant information around Android Studio and App Indexing:
Code Generation
Introduced in Android Studio 2.0 Preview, you can right click on AndroidManifest.xml or Activity method (or go to Code → Generate…→ App Indexing API Code) to insert HTTP URL stub codes into your manifest and app code.
*New for Beta* URL Testing & Validation
What is new in Android Studio 2.0 Beta is that you can now validate and check the results of your URLs with the built-in validation tool (Tools → Android → Google App Indexing Test). To learn more about app indexing, click here.

Pretty cool and it should help tremendously with developers adding App Indexing support in their Android apps.
