Replace your implementation with classpath  That should work

So ridiculous  but I still wanna share my experience in case of that someone falls into the situation like me   Please check if you changed  compileSdkVersion --  implementationSdkVersion by mistake

If implementation is not defined  you are writing on a wrong file  On Unity 2019  the correct file is main template grandle and not some of the others

As mentioned here  https   stackoverflow com a 50941562 2186220  use gradle plugin version 3 or higher while using  implementation    Also  use the google   repository in buildscript   buildscript       repositories           google             dependencies           classpath  com android tools build gradle 3 1 2            These changes should solve the issue

You need to use at least Gradle 3 4 or newer to be able to use implementation  It is not recommended to keep using the deprecated compile since this can result in slower build times  For more details see the official android developer guide      When your module configures an implementation dependency  it s letting Gradle know that the module does not want to leak the dependency to other modules at compile time  That is  the dependency is available to other modules only at runtime    Using this dependency configuration instead of api or compile can result in significant build time improvements because it reduces the amount of projects that the build system needs to recompile  For example  if an implementation dependency changes its API  Gradle recompiles only that dependency and the modules that directly depend on it  Most app and test modules should use this configuration    https   developer android com studio build gradle-plugin-3-0-0-migration html new configurations  Update  compile will be removed by end of 2018  so make sure that you use only implementation now      Warning Configuration  compile  is obsolete and has been replaced with    implementation   It will be removed at the end of 2018

Your Code     dependencies       compile fileTree include      jar    dir   libs     Replace it By   dependencies   implementation fileTree include      jar    dir   libs

Replace implementation with compile   compile was recently deprecated and replaced by implementation or api

User · Answer

I moved implementation to module-level build gradle from root-level build gradle  It solves the issue

User · Answer

Make sure your Gradle version is 3     or higher before using  quot implementation quot   Open the project level Gradle file under dependencies  dependencies      classpath  com android tools build gradle 3 1 2     Open the  gradle-wrapper properties  file and set the distributionUrl  distributionUrl https    services gradle org distributions gradle-4 4-all zip  or latest version  Sync the project  I Hope this solves your problem

For me I put my dependencies in the wrong spot  buildscript     dependencies         Don t put dependencies here         dependencies      Put them here
