I am building a sample project from Udacity. This was working fine till now, but after upgrading to Android Studio 3.2.1, I am facing the build error below.

Gradle version: 4.6

Answer 1

For Android Studio 3.2.1 update

Just add google() in root level build.gradle

buildscript {
    repositories {
        google()   //  <--here
        jcenter()
    }
 }

allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()   //  <-- here
        jcenter()
    }
}

and see the magic - error is gone.
