If you want to use a production build (labeled "Google Play"; it's those builds that have Google Play installed) you can use Magisk to obtain root in your AVD.
[Magisk](https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk) allows root on your Android device or emulator.
See the [instructions here](https://github.com/shakalaca/MagiskOnEmulator) for installing Magisk on your AVD.
The instructions have been tested with API level 30, but are reportedly working with API levels 22 up to and including 30 and 'S' (except API level 28).
See the [instructions here](https://gitlab.com/newbit/rootAVD) for installing Magisk on your AVD.
Note: the instructions say to start your AVD. Do not supply an `-http-proxy` directive to mitmproxy at this point.
When you are done with that, your emulator will allow root. You can check this by running a terminal emulator and typing `su`.
