Failed to resolve com google android gms play-services in IntelliJ Idea with gradle

Question

I m trying to add google play services to my libGDX project in IntelliJ Idea  I ve followed the setup guide here  https   developers google com android guides setup  which looks pretty straightforward  I just added those lines to my build gradle in the corresponding section  so things look now like   project   android         apply plugin   android      apply plugin   com android application       configurations   natives        dependencies           compile project   core           compile  com badlogicgames gdx gdx-backend-android  gdxVersion          natives  com badlogicgames gdx gdx-platform  gdxVersion natives-armeabi          natives  com badlogicgames gdx gdx-platform  gdxVersion natives-armeabi-v7a          natives  com badlogicgames gdx gdx-platform  gdxVersion natives-arm64-v8a          natives  com badlogicgames gdx gdx-platform  gdxVersion natives-x86          natives  com badlogicgames gdx gdx-platform  gdxVersion natives-x86 64          compile  com badlogicgames gdx gdx-box2d-platform  gdxVersion          natives  com badlogicgames gdx gdx-box2d-platform  gdxVersion natives-armeabi          natives  com badlogicgames gdx gdx-box2d-platform  gdxVersion natives-armeabi-v7a          natives  com badlogicgames gdx gdx-box2d-platform  gdxVersion natives-x86          compile  com badlogicgames gdx gdx-freetype  gdxVersion          natives  com badlogicgames gdx gdx-freetype-platform  gdxVersion natives-armeabi          natives  com badlogicgames gdx gdx-freetype-platform  gdxVersion natives-armeabi-v7a          natives  com badlogicgames gdx gdx-freetype-platform  gdxVersion natives-arm64-v8a          natives  com badlogicgames gdx gdx-freetype-platform  gdxVersion natives-x86          natives  com badlogicgames gdx gdx-freetype-platform  gdxVersion natives-x86 64          compile  com google android gms play-services 11 2 0            Then I try to sync my gradle project in Idea just to get that  Failed to resolve  error   Well  the setup guide also says  Be sure you update this version number each time Google Play services is updated   but the problem is that it seems nearly impossible to find that version number  my Google Play Services SDK version according to the Android SDK manager is  43   and so far I have been unable to correlate such  11 2 0  or whatever typical version string with the  43  version number  Not that the setup guide says nothing about that   Anyway  I have tried a lot of things from the plethora of questions related to this to no avail  Specifically  I have to point out that I do have my Android SDK properly updated and I m sure it is the one it s being used by Idea  I ve already triple-checked this          I m using the API level 26  but anyway the other defines do use the very same directory for the Android SDK  Moreover  I do NOT have any other android SDK installed at all in this laptop  so there s no question about Idea being using that one and that one only    Any ideas are more than welcome   Thanks in advance

I just replaced version 11 2 0 with 11 0 0 and then it seemed to work fine  so that had to mean that 11 2 0 wasn t included with the latest Android SDK     So  after struggling with all the available scattered documentation  I reached this document by pure chance  I guess it is not indexed high enough by Google   https   developers google com android guides releases  I quote from there      Highlights from the Google Play services 11 2 release  Google Play   services dependencies are now available via maven google com   Now  even when that shouldn t necessarily mean that they are not available with the downloaded SDK anymore  it seems that this is actually the case   Anyway  adding google   to my build gradle didn t work  not found  undefined  or whatever      so I used a different approach that I found in this document referenced from the previous one   https   developer android com studio build dependencies html google-maven  I modified my build gradle file adding that line to allprojects repositories  as in   allprojects           repositories               maven   url  https   maven google com              And then also in the android section in the same build gradle file   project   android             dependencies               compile  com google android gms play-services-ads 11 2 0            Those two lines were enough to make Gradle sync without problems  I didn t need to add any plugins apart from the ones that are already added in my libGDX project by default   After that  I got a few different errors  but none about Gradle or dependencies  In a brief  JFTR    First  I had a minSdkVersion of 8  Solved by raising it to 14  I think I could live without supporting all those devices below 14    Second  I had problems with the dex upper limit of references  I ve never faced this problem before  but maybe you ve already noticed the solution I used  instead of compiling the whole  com google android gms play-services  I used only  com google android gms play-services-ads  that s the API I m actually interested right now  For those other particular cases where a solution like this may not be useful  this document could provide some better insight  https   developer android com studio build multidex html  Third  even after that I got this  jumbo  thing problem described and answered here  https   stackoverflow com a 26248495 1160360  And that s it  As of now  everything builds and my game does finally shows those Admob banners    I ve spent hours with this  thought  which makes me wonder if all these building automation systems we are using lately are worth the extra load they add    I mean  the first time I had to add Admob to an app five years ago or so  I just had to download a  jar file and put it on a directory on my project  It was pretty obvious and the whole process  from googling  how to setup Admob in my android project  to have my app showing an Admob banner took me just a few minutes  I m gonna leave it here  since this is not the place for such kind of debate   Nonetheless  I hope my own experience is useful for someone else further

I got this error too but for a different reason   It turns out I had made a typo when I tried to specify the version number as a variable   dependencies                  implementation  com google android gms play-services-location   playServices                  I had defined the variable playServices in gradle properties in my project s root directory   playServices 15 0 1   The typo was   playServices  which should have said   playServices  like this   dependencies                  implementation  com google android gms play-services-location   playServices                  That fixed the problem for me

I tried solving this problem for hours after I haven t used Android Studio some time and wasn t aware of the updates   It is important that google   is the first item that stands in repositories like this   allprojects       repositories           google           jcenter           mavenCentral             Somehow google   was the second item after jcenter    so everything was messed up and didn t work  Maybe this helps someone

At the latest Google Play Services 15 0 0  it occurs this error when you include entire play service like this  implementation  com google android gms play-services 15 0 0    Instead  you must specific the detail service like Google Drive  com google android gms play-services-drive 15 0 0
