[jcesarmobile]

can you provide a sample app?

[SSuarezBrooktec]

I'm trying to upload the ionic conference to one repo today.

In addition i have this error: google-services.json not found, google-services plugin not applied. Push Notifications won't work

But google-services.json are in this folder android/app/*
why android studio are showing me this?

[SSuarezBrooktec]

Here repo: https://github.com/SSuarezBrooktec/android_capacitor2.1

if you need google-services.json for Firebase, I can send you privately.

Project error:

I have updated variables.gradle with this firebase messaging version, and it is working!

**firebaseMessagingVersion =  '20.1.6'**

Maybe this line should also be updated in the Ionic template with Capacitor and this updating guide:
https://capacitor.ionicframework.com/docs/android/updating

I can't reproduce the

Error Type com.google.firebase.iid.zzbg is referenced as an interface from com.google.firebase.messaging.zzf

in your sample app, but might be related to conflicting firebase versions since you have plenty of firebase plugins (cordova and capacitor).
Going to close since you solved it by updating the firebase messaging version

About the google-services not found message, it's because of the cordova-support-google-services applying the google services plugin before Capacitor does and making it to fail, I've added it to the incompatible list since it's not needed

このFirebaseメッセージングバージョンでvariables.gradleを更新しました。

**firebaseMessagingVersion =  '20.1.6'**

たぶんこの行は、コンデンサとこの更新ガイドを含むIonicテンプレートでも更新する必要があります：https :
//capacitor.ionicframework.com/docs/android/updating

Worked for me. Thanks!!

I tried this, but it fails when installing that version when doing 'Sync project with Gradle Files' with the following errors:

Unable to resolve dependency for ':capacitor-android@debug/compileClasspath': Could not resolve com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:20.1.6.

Unable to resolve dependency for ':capacitor-android@debugAndroidTest/compileClasspath': Could not resolve com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:20.1.6.

Unable to resolve dependency for ':capacitor-android@debugUnitTest/compileClasspath': Could not resolve com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:20.1.6.

It seems like the installation fails, and then it doesn't find the dependency

[SergioSuarezDev]

Try with other actual version

This worked for me. Spent a lot of time on it before I found this. Maybe it should be in the Plugin instructions for @capacitor-community/firebase-analytics.
