Gradle Error:Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugGoogleServices'

Question

I am following this link to integrate Google sign-in in my android app.https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/android/start-integrating As given in last step on the above given page we have to include dependency

 compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:8.3.0'

in app-level build.gradle file but doing so and building project an error comes saying

Error:Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugGoogleServices'.
> Please fix the version conflict.

build.gradle(Module:app)

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'


android {
    compileSdkVersion 23
    buildToolsVersion "23.0.2"

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.brainbreaker.socialbuttons"
        minSdkVersion 16
        targetSdkVersion 23
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:design:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:8.3.0'
}

In the build.gradle file the compile dependency line compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:8.3.0' shows error

All com.google.android.gms libraries must use the exact same version specification (mixing versions can lead to runtime crashes). Found versions 8.3.0, 8.1.0. Examples include com.google.android.gms:play-services-base:8.3.0 and com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement:8.1.0 There are some combinations of libraries, or tools and libraries, that are incompatible, or can lead to bugs. One such incompatibility is compiling with a version of the Android support libraries that is not the latest version (or in particular, a version lower than your targetSdkVersion.)

Here are the messages of gradle build.

You should delete a line apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

because "com.android.application" package already has same package.

If you have `com.google.gms:google-services:3.1.0` in your project-level gradle file, then delete the last line in app-level gradle: `apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services`. If you have version 3.0.0 in project-level, leave the line untouched. Weird, but it works. – Sevastyan Savanyuk Aug 02 '17 at 08:06

NEVER DELETE apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services' from the gradle.

I was finding the same error complaining about mixing google play services version when switching from 8.3 to 8.4. Bizarrely I saw reference to the app-measurement lib which I wasn't using.

I thought maybe one of my app's dependencies was referencing the older version so I ran ./gradlew app:dependencies to find the offending library (non were).

But at the top of task output I found a error message saying that the google plugin could not be found and defaulting to google play services 8.3. I used the sample project @TheYann linked to compare. My setup was identical except I applied the apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services' at the top my app's build.gradle file. I moved to bottom of the file and that fixed the gradle compile error.

About the strange reference to the app-measurement lib. This is actually automatically added by the Google Services Gradle plugin. If you look in the sources JAR downloaded, you'll notice one of the steps is to add a dependency to play-services-measurement. Interesting that they don't call this out in the docs -- it simply just says "Add dependencies for basic libraries required for the services you have enabled."

Any help is greatly appreciated! CC @IgorGanapolsky – Forrest Bice Sep 01 '16 at 04:12

Ensure that you have done these two things under defaultConfig in Android/app/build.gradle after wiring up Firebase for your Flutter app.

1) Whatever package name you entered while creating your Firebase android project, exactly the same should be updated as your applicationId under defaultConfig.

2) Add the line multiDexEnabled true under defaultConfig.

So defaultConfig{} should now look something like this

defaultConfig {
    applicationId "com.companyName.appName"
    minSdkVersion 16
    targetSdkVersion 27
    multiDexEnabled true
    versionCode flutterVersionCode.toInteger()
    versionName flutterVersionName
    testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
}

Wong package name got me - I didn't include my app name. D'Oh! — Carl Smith, Mar 11 '21 at 10:36

Important note: You should only apply plugin at bottom of build.gradle (App level)

apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

I mistakenly apply this plugin at top of the build.gradle. So I get error.

One more tips : You no need to remove even you use the 3.1.0 or above. Because google not officially announced

had the same issue as described by @scottyab.

all references were 8.4.0 but it failed due to a reference to app-measurement 8.3.0 that i did not reference anywhere (but one of the dependencies?). you can see the problem if you hover over the bad(red) dependency in Android Studio. explicitly adding

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement:8.4.0'

to app.gradle solved the issue.

When you create an android application in firebase console you should set your application package in future it will be recorded to google-services.json. So this error can happen when you try to add google services in the application which has a different package (Current application package will not match to which was recorded to google-services.json).

I ran into the same issue, I followed the top three steps in this thread. However, I later found that package_name should match with appID in the google-service.json file as well.

Do look at what your package_name says in google.service.json and match it with the actual app id.

If You are trying to solve this problem for firebase then use this....

Deleting the ** 'com.google.gms.google-services' ** is not the correct way, this problem occurs because of the name changes.

Need to give the same name in the format firebase package name == android package name (check it in /android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml)

Just change the name as android package name then again download the google-services.json then paste it in the /android/app/ like this (/android/app/google-services.json) and run your npm eg. npx react-native run-android It will work 100%.

If you´re building a new app, put the jsonfile in the right place and make sure it's the jsonfile for that app. Before I realized this, when I clicked the jsonfile, I didn't get the information that wanted.

Go to firebase configurations, download the correct version of google-services.json, and replace the version that didn't work for you. When using the wrong version, you might see the wrong Projectid, storagebucket etc.
