DefaultTaskContainer#NamedDomainObjectProvider.configure(Action) on task set cannot be executed in the current context

Question

I am getting this error when I try to connect my app with firebase.

and here are Gradle scripts

Answer 1

Google broke something in com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.9

Change it to com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.8 and I suspect it will work. I have the same issue, and no amount of fiddling around with gradle scripts has fixed it, only downgrading.

Answer 2

A new version 4.3.10 was released with a fix. Give it a try
