Instruct Gradle to download Android plugin from Maven Central repository.

You do it by pasting the following code at the beginning of the Gradle build file:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.1.1'
    }
}

Replace version string 1.0.+ with the latest version. Released versions of Gradle plugin can be found in official Maven Repository or on MVNRepository artifact search.

In later versions  the plugin has changed name to   apply plugin   com android library    And as already mentioned by some of the other answers  you need the gradle tools in order to use it  Using 3 0 1  you have to use the google repo  not mavenCentral or jcenter   buildscript       repositories                         In IntelliJ or older versions of Android Studio           maven                url  https   maven google com                      google    in newer versions of Android Studio           dependencies           classpath  com android tools build gradle 3 0 1
