Import Google Play Services library in Android Studio

Solution 1:

Try this once and make sure you are not getting any error in project Structure saying that "ComGoogleAndroidGmsPlay not added"

Open File > Project Structure and check for below all. If error is shown click on Red bulb marked and click on "Add to dependency".

GMS dependency

This is a bug in Android Studio and fixed for the next release(0.4.3)

Solution 2:

I had similar issue Cannot resolve com.google.android.gms.common.

I followed setup guide http://developer.android.com/google/play-services/setup.html and it works!

Summary:

  1. Installed/Updated Google Play Services, and Google Repository from SDK Manager
  2. Added dependency in build.gradle: compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:4.0.30'
  3. Updated AndroidManifest.xml with <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version" android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />
