Answer 1

You need to provide google-services.json for all flavors (release and development etc)

Single google-services.json can have json/data for all flavors. Go to Google Developers Console and regenerate google-services.json file

Update

You can also create separate google-services.json files for flavors

Answer 2

Probably a bit late but I had a similar problem.

It occurred when I initially connected my app to Firebase analytics for some reason it only picked up my "debug" flavor.

I had to log into Firebase, go to the console and select the relevant project and then manually add the additional "release" flavor.

Then I reconnected to Firebase in Android Studio (which automatically updated and downloaded the json file from Firebase into Studio), re-compiled my app and it worked.

The problem was actually with NewRelic not with my configuration. I removed it and followed this answer as I was using BuildTypes. Now it compiles as expected.

Answer 4

In my case it solved my problem

      ...  
 "client": [
        {
          "client_info": {
            "mobilesdk_app_id": "yourid",
            "android_client_info": {
              "package_name": "ru.example.app"
            }
          },
       ...

package_name should be same as in applicationId

        defaultConfig {
                applicationId "ru.example.app"
                minSdkVersion 15
                targetSdkVersion 23
                ...
    }

Answer 5

Google just included support for flavors on version 2.0 of the play services plugin. Since this version of the gradle plugin com.google.gms:google-services:2.0.0-alpha9

you can do this
