Android In App Messaging Build Gradle Failing for SDK version

[bpfeiffer187]

Anyone else run into the issue with adding in app messaging becuase it tries to dynamically pull in SDK version.

project.ext {
set('react-native', [
versions: [
android : [
minSdk : jsonMinSdk,
targetSdk : jsonTargetSdk,
compileSdk: jsonCompileSdk,
// optional as gradle.buildTools comes with one by default
// overriding here though to match the version RN uses
buildTools: jsonBuildTools
],

i notice other packages specify the versions

project.ext {
set('react-native', [
versions: [
android : [
minSdk : 16,
targetSdk : 28,
compileSdk: "28.0.3"
// optional as gradle.buildTools comes with one by default
// overriding here though to match the version RN uses
buildTools: jsonBuildTools
],

You appear to be on old versions. all the packages should be getting it dynamically

yea i do have mixed becuase i put in app and analytics about a month ago and those

roject.ext {
set('react-native', [
versions: [
android : [
minSdk : 16,
targetSdk : 28,
compileSdk: 28,
// optional as gradle.buildTools comes with one by default
// overriding here though to match the version RN uses
buildTools: "28.0.3"
]

messaging looks like

project.ext {
set('react-native', [
versions: [
android : [
minSdk : jsonMinSdk,
targetSdk : jsonTargetSdk,
compileSdk: jsonCompileSdk,
// optional as gradle.buildTools comes with one by default
// overriding here though to match the version RN uses
buildTools: jsonBuildTools
],

  firebase: [
    bom: firebaseBomVersion,
  ],
],

])
}

so if i update the other packages will i get the same error i am getting with messaging?

where would the SDK versions then be defined?

also thank you for thee help and convo

[mikehardy]

update everything to current stable, it will work - or, it should work...

yea that looks like the app gradle errors went away. However now when i run it on emulator it crashes right away.

im digging inot that now.

Ah, but instant android crashes are actually the easiest, those are usually my favorite. adb logcat and you get a stack trace right there, no need for a full IDE or anything, and the stack usually has a good error. This confirms my suspicion about the root cause though, you had versions straddling the PR I linked above, and that won't work well, no
