I might be late but this might help someone else!

    AsyncTask<Void, Void, String> task = new AsyncTask<Void, Void, String>() {         @Override         protected String doInBackground(Void... params) {             AdvertisingIdClient.Info idInfo = null;             try {                 idInfo = AdvertisingIdClient.getAdvertisingIdInfo(getApplicationContext());             } catch (GooglePlayServicesNotAvailableException e) {                 e.printStackTrace();             } catch (GooglePlayServicesRepairableException e) {                 e.printStackTrace();             } catch (IOException e) {                 e.printStackTrace();             }             String advertId = null;             try{                 advertId = idInfo.getId();             }catch (NullPointerException e){                 e.printStackTrace();             }              return advertId;         }          @Override         protected void onPostExecute(String advertId) {             Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), advertId, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();         }      };     task.execute();
