If you're opening an existing project using Android Studio 3.0 Preview 1 or later, follow the prompts to automatically update your project to the latest version of the Android plugin. To manually update your project, include the maven repo and change the plugin version in your project-level build.gradle file as follows:

Open your Project level build.gradle Section .

You should add maven { url 'https://maven.google.com' } .

Example

 buildscript {
        repositories {
            jcenter()
             // You need to add the following repository to download the new plugin.
             maven { url 'https://maven.google.com' }
        }
        dependencies {
            classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.0-alpha4' // Same for alpha6

        }
    }

    allprojects {
        repositories {
            jcenter()
            maven { url 'https://maven.google.com' }
        }
    }

I have added buildsctipt and allprojects but it doesn't work – Tornike Kurdadze Jun 20 '17 at 06:28
Could you share your `build.gradle` – IntelliJ Amiya Jun 20 '17 at 06:29
`Clean-Rebuild` and `Restart` your IDE – IntelliJ Amiya Jun 20 '17 at 06:30
@TornikeQurdadze wrong . You have two `build.gradle` .One is project level and another module level – IntelliJ Amiya Jun 20 '17 at 06:35

A better way may be just to use

buildscript {
    repositories {
        google()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.0'
    }
}
