Error:(23, 13) Failed to resolve: com.google.android.gms:play-services:11.2.0 "Install Repository and sync project" dose not work

Question

I am trying to get location and update to server in my Android app. This is my Gradle code, here I included compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:11.2.0'. This line is from the documentation:

dependencies {
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:11.2.0'

    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:25.3.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:design:25.3.1'
    compile 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.2'
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:25.3.1'       
}

But this is the error I get:

Error:(23, 13) Failed to resolve: com.google.android.gms:play-services:11.2.0
Install Repository and sync project
Show in File
Show in Project Structure dialog

Clicking in "Install Repository and sync project" doesn't work.

Answer 1

Add this to your project-level build.gradle file:

repositories {
    maven {
        url "https://maven.google.com"
    }
}
