How to change the version of the default gradle wrapper in IntelliJ IDEA

Question

I want to use Gradle 1 10 instead of 1 9  I cannot seem to find where to change this   If I put this   task wrapper type  Wrapper        gradleVersion    1 10      in my build gradle and rebuild  it is built with Gradle 1 9 again  so nothing actually happens    These seem to be all the settings   and IntelliJ s help section about Gradle doesn t help at all

The easiest way is to execute the following command from the command line (see Upgrading the Gradle Wrapper in documentation):

./gradlew wrapper --gradle-version 5.5

Moreover, you can use --distribution-type parameter with either bin or all value to choose a distribution type. Use all distribution type to avoid a hint from IntelliJ IDEA or Android Studio that will offer you to download Gradle with sources:

./gradlew wrapper --gradle-version 5.5 --distribution-type all

Or you can create a custom wrapper task

task wrapper(type: Wrapper) {
    gradleVersion = '5.5'
}

and run ./gradlew wrapper.

First  let gradle set the correct distribution Url  cd projectDirectory   gradlew wrapper --gradle-version 2 3 0   Then - might not be needed but that s what I did - edit the project s build gradle to match the version      dependencies       classpath  com android tools build gradle 2 3 0          NOTE  Do not place your application dependencies here  they belong        in the individual module build gradle files     Finally  delete the folders  gradle and gradle and the files gradlew and gradlew bat   Original Answer   Now  rebuild the project   As the other answers did not suffice for me and the comment pointing out these additional steps is easy to overlook  here as a separate answer

The  wrapper  task in gradle is called if gradlew command is used  if you use gradle command to build the wrapper task is not called  So  there are two ways you can change your gradle version     Use  gradlew build  command  this command will call the wrapper task that you mentioned  That task will change the  distributionUrl  parameter in gradle-wrapper properties file and it will automatically download the gradle version you want  Example distributionUrl in the file for version 4 2   distributionUrl https   services gradle org distributions gradle-4 2-bin zip If you are not using gradle wrapper simply download the version of the gradle you want and set environment variable path and also show it to IDEA    P S  for more information about gradle wrapper I suggest you to read  https   docs gradle org current userguide gradle wrapper html
