I recently had to upgrade my android project to the latest version of Android Studio and the Android Gradle plugin.
Following the guidelines provided at https://developer.android.com/studio/build/gradle-plugin-3-0-0-migration?utm_source=android-studio#new_configurations, I encountered a build error related to google-http-client-parent:1.24.1 that was not present in repositories Maven or Jcenter.
In my app, I am only using com.google.http-client:google-http-client-android:1.23.0 with no libraries of version 1.24.1. Despite extensive research, the origin of this error remains unclear.
The log detailing the issue is as follows:
