How to fix "No plugin found for prefix 'liquibase' in the current project and in the plugin groups"

Question

I am new to Liquibase. I have already included maven plugins and liquibase to my pom.xml however when i update liquibase using mvn liquibase:update I get this error:

No plugin found for prefix 'liquibase' in the current project and in the plugin groups [org.apache.maven.plugins, org.codehaus.mojo] 

How can I fix this error so that when I type mvn liquibase:update it will run properly

Here are some of the dependencies that are in my pom.xml related to liquibase

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.liquibase</groupId>
    <artifactId>liquibase-core</artifactId>
</dependency>

<build>
    <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.5</version>
        <configuration>
            <useSystemClassLoader>false</useSystemClassLoader>
        </configuration>
    </plugin>
    <plugin>
        <groupId>org.liquibase</groupId>
        <artifactId>liquibase-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>3.6.3</version>
        <configuration>
            <propertyFile>src/main/resources/liquibase.properties</propertyFile>
            <promptOnNonLocalDatabase>false</promptOnNonLocalDatabase>
        </configuration>
    </plugin>
</build>

I don't think the problem is with liquibase plugin itself. It's more about maven prefixes.

Try executing: mvn org.liquibase:liquibase-maven-plugin:update
