The issue is resolved with Google Services Plugin Version 4.3.0 (Resolved with this commit)

buildscript {
    dependencies {
        // Change version to 4.3.0
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.0'
    }
}

But instead it rises another issue: `WARNING: API 'variant.getMergeResources()' is obsolete and has been replaced with 'variant.getMergeResourcesProvider()'.` https://github.com/google/play-services-plugins/issues/65 – Luten Jul 14 '19 at 13:58

Looks like this is solved, once and for all, without new warnings with this:

buildscript {
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.2'
    }
}

I was developing an app using Google Flutter and tried installing firebase. I was following Google's tutorial and turns out my gradle version and android studio needed an update. I was also following the google guide wrong, there's one for flutter firebase and then the other is android firebase. I went back and followed the flutter firebase guide.

So I made changes by adding the following to my project-level build.gradle

buildscript {
  dependencies {
    // Add this line
    classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.0'
  }
}

and added this to my app-level build.gradle

// Add to the bottom of the file
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

Made these changes using Android Studio so I can sync all the changes throughout the app and it fixed the error.

It did not solved my problem (which was exactly the same). It only raised more error while sync. – Jérémy Jun 29 '19 at 11:09

For me it worked. I updated project level dependencies, then changed to latest gradle, cause android studio wanted that. And after that also it showed that i needed to use latest android studio version. So i updated also that. – Andris Dec 06 '19 at 08:26

In the app level build.gradle update your androidX dependencies, for me worked changing to this versions

dependencies {
    ...
    androidTestImplementation 'androidx.test:runner:1.2.0'
    androidTestImplementation 'androidx.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.2.0'
}

My minSdkVersion is 19 so don't know if needed to update to 23 as suggested in by some people

classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.3' solves this issue.

And also it solves the issue: WARNING: API 'variant.getMergeResources()' is obsolete and has been replaced with 'variant.getMergeResourcesProvider()'.

The above issue is generated when you use classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.0' So avoid using it.
