Unsupported method: AndroidArtifact.getBuildConfigFields()

I have just updated to Android Studio 4.0 and trying to build my project. I keep on getting the below error
Unsupported method: AndroidArtifact.getBuildConfigFields().
The version of Gradle you connect to does not support that method.
To resolve the problem you can change/upgrade the target version of Gradle you connect to.
Alternatively, you can ignore this exception and read other information from the model.
I am already using the latest version of Gradle and Gradle Plugin
Gradle version:
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.5-milestone-1-all.zip
Gradle plugin tools version:
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.1.0-alpha10'
Any solution or fix for this problem would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

Use Android studio 4.1 preview
or
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.0.0'

This is usually due to a mismatch between your Android Studio versions and the Android Gradle plugin.
You can find the version of Android Studio on the project selection window when you first open it (or in "Android Studio > About Android Studio" on Mac, and similar location on other platforms). For example, you might be using Android Studio 4.0.1.
You can find the Android Gradle plugin version for your project in the top-level build.gradle file.
You should find something like the following:
buildscript {
[...]
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.0.1'
[...]
}
[...]
}
You need to make sure that the two version numbers match (in this case they do).

Android studio gradle upgrade

Anyone has an idea on how to upgrade gradle from within android studio. The pop-up appears telling me to upgrade gradle but version never updates.
I've tried downloading it and unzipping it in the .gralde folder and changing the path, a gradle error persists and resolving it only re-creates the old gradle file and overwrites the new one.

Set gradle and android plugin version under the Projects tab in Project structure (File -> Project Structure). Clicking Ok will sync gradle files.
Alternatively to update gradle through code this may be helpful.

Update Gradle version
find gradle folder inside your project
Open gradle-wrapper.properties
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-3.3-all.zip
Update Android Gradle plugin
Open build.gradle file of your project
Inside buildscript tag update
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.3'
After making these changes refresh gradle dependency.

Android studio : gradle project sync failed

im studying android development for a month
and in my project the gradle version is
code:
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.0.0-alpha3'
today when i lunched to android studio i got the error
"Plugin is too old, please update to a more recent version, or set ANDROID_DAILY_OVERRIDE environment variable to..."
what should i do?
how to update for the latest version gradle?.
Thanks for the help!

Looks like alpha6 is out now - https://bintray.com/android/android-tools/com.android.tools.build.gradle/view

I think you have update you sdk and tool, so try the new plugin, maybe alpha4 to alpha6 version:
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.0.0-alpha5'

I have same problem you can find version of gradle here:
https://bintray.com/android/android-tools/com.android.tools.build.gradle/view
and change the version to
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.0.0'
also you have error importing this version you can change the version of grader home in gradle-wrapper.properties to:
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.12-all.zip
rebuild project and it should work

Android gradle plugin error

I tried importing a project but got this error. I tried the auto-update to upgrade my gradle plugin but it didn't work. Android gradle plugin error img
Do I need to make changes in build.gradle project file?
Is there any specific way to update my gradle plugin?

In ur build.gradle use this line
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.2.0'
and try to rebuild the project. If the gradle is present the build is success, otherwise it will ask to update the gradle plugin and click on it.So, It will automatically updates and completes build.

Fix Plugin Version and Sync Project

I have recently updated my Android Studio.
After updating it, When I am trying to import or open a project it gives me following error :
Gradle Sync Issue
Error:Error:Gradle 2.4 requires Android Gradle plugin 1.2.0 (or newer) but project is using version 1.1.0.
Please use Android Gradle plugin 1.2.0 or newer.
Fix plugin version and sync project
Is there any solution for this problem ?

In your build.gradle you should use a newer version of the gradle plugin.
Use classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.3.1'instead of classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.1.0'. Or at least 1.2.0, as the error points out.

change in your progect build.gradle file
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.2.3'
}

As Android Studio was just officially updated to 1.3 (Gradle as well).
Please Change gradle version to 1.3.+ in build.gradle . It should now look like this:
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.3.+'
// in the individual module build.gradle files
}

I met this question,too. Modifying dependencies stuff is confuse me. From#Mykaelos answer, For Windows Android Studio, Go into File > Settings > "Build, Execution, Deployment" > "Build Tools" > Gradle and change it to "Use default gradle wrapper (recommended)", I tried it in early hours, and it works for me.
