Error:Could not find method getCompileConfiguration() for arguments [] on object of type com.android.build.gradle.internal.api.ApplicationVariantImpl

Question

I' am working on React Native technology and everything was working fine until yesterday and today when I opened react-native project in the android studio it gave me this error:

Error:Could not find method getCompileConfiguration() for arguments [] on object of type com.android.build.gradle.internal.api.ApplicationVariantImpl.

Please help me out with the best solution to resolve this issue.

Thanks

I think this is due to com.google.gms:google-services released a new version that is not compatible with the gradle build tools, to fix it I changed android/build.gradle

dependencies {
  - classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.+'
  - classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.+'
  + classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.3'
  + classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.2.1'
}

To use strict versions, as per the docs here
