Unsatisfied dependency for com.google.firebase.inappmessaging.display.FirebaseInAppMessagingDisplay

Question

In order to remove the PLAY INSTALL REFERRER API permission from my app, I've removed the com.google.firebase:firebase-core:17.2.2 dependency from Gradle, but at runtime, I get this error log:

  java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to get provider com.google.firebase.provider.FirebaseInitProvider: com.google.firebase.components.MissingDependencyException: Unsatisfied dependency for component Component<[class com.google.firebase.inappmessaging.display.FirebaseInAppMessagingDisplay]>{2, type=0, deps=[Dependency{anInterface=class com.google.firebase.FirebaseApp, type=required, direct=true}, Dependency{anInterface=interface com.google.firebase.analytics.connector.AnalyticsConnector, type=required, direct=true}, Dependency{anInterface=class com.google.firebase.inappmessaging.FirebaseInAppMessaging, type=required, direct=true}]}: interface com.google.firebase.analytics.connector.AnalyticsConnector

In my app I use firebase services for only the following reasons:

• Push notification to the users
• Write and read data from Firebase database
• Display App message dialog (Inappmessaging-Display)

Thank you for your help in advance

I tried adding this to the app/build.gradleit worked for me.

implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:17.0.0'

Btw it's part of Firebase documentation
