Azure devops - SDK location not found. Define location with an ANDROID_SDK_ROOT environment

I get the below error while trying to run android application in a self hosted ubuntu agent. Am I getting this error because Android SDK is not present in the Ubuntu agent? If so, is there any workaround? I do not get this issue while the same app is run in a macos agent.
Any help is much appreciated

SDK location not found. Define location with an ANDROID_SDK_ROOT environment variable or by setting the sdk.dir path in your project's local properties file at '/azp/_work/1/s/local.properties'.
The cause of this error is that the Android SDK is not installed or the Android environment is not configured on your self-hosted agent.
You need to check if Android SDK has been installed on your self-hosted agent.
If no, you can use the following command to install Android SDK.
sudo apt update && sudo apt install android-sdk
The location of Android SDK on Linux can be any of the following:
/home/AccountName/Android/Sdk
/usr/lib/android-sdk
/Library/Android/sdk/
/Users/[USER]/Library/Android/sdk
Then you can set the Android environment via setting environment variable or setting sdk.dir path in /azp/_work/1/s/local.properties.
For example:
Set environment variable
1.Edit your ~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc or ...
2. Add SDK path:
export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Android/Sdk
export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT=$HOME/Android/Sdk
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
3.Run command:
source $HOME/.bashrc
echo $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT

I tried specify ndkVersion to "21.4.7075529" didn't help. Also I tried to upgrade gradle version to 4.1.0 but same error came up.
Thanks

I managed to fix it by adding bash script as step like this:
echo "ndk.dir=$ANDROID_NDK_HOME" >> local.properties

On the CircleCi website it states
This image contains the Android SDK and CLI tools.
But it looks like maybe the Android SDK isn't installed?
Has anyone come across this before?

You can check cimg-android docker template code.
# Install Android SDK Tools
ENV ANDROID_HOME "/home/circleci/android-sdk"
ENV ANDROID_SDK_ROOT $ANDROID_HOME
You don't need to set $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT yourself.
Instead, the sdk path can be refered with $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT

- run:
name: 'Build Android App'
command: |
export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT='/home/circleci/android-sdk'
export JAVA_HOME='/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64'
npm run build:android

I've tried to take configuration file from here: https://circleci.com/docs/2.0/language-android/
I've also tried to use default configuration file, when building a project.
I've set ANDROID Home variable, I've checked local.properties file. Everything is correct.
Can anybody help?
