Setting up Gradle for api 26 (Android)

Question

Since I have upgraded my Nexus 5x to Android O DP3 I am not able to test my applications. I get the error for not having configured my Gradle-file to work with the new API-l

Answer 1

you must add in your MODULE-LEVEL build.gradle file with:

//module-level build.gradle file
repositories {
    maven {
        url 'https://maven.google.com'

    }
}

see: Google's Maven repository

I have observed that when I use Android Studio 2.3.3 I MUST add repositories{maven{url 'https://maven.google.com'}} in MODULE-LEVEL build.gradle. In the case of Android Studio 3.0.0 there is no need for the addition in module-level build.gradle. It is enough the addition in project-level build.gradle which has been referred to in the other posts here, namely:

//project-level build.gradle file
allprojects {
 repositories {
    jcenter()
    maven {
        url 'https://maven.google.com/'
        name 'Google'
    }
  }
}

UPDATE 11-14-2017: The solution, that I present, was valid when I did the post. Since then, there have been various updates (even with respect to the site I refer to), and I do not know if now is valid. For one month I did my work depending on the solution above, until I upgraded to Android Studio 3.0.0
