Can't accept license agreement Android SDK Platform 24

I'm getting the following error when trying to install an android platform on a Cordova project. I've been following this guide: https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/latest/guide/cli/

Error occurs when executing the following: $ cordova platform add android --save

A problem occurred configuring root project 'android'. You have not accepted the license agreements of the following SDK components: [Android SDK Platform 24].

I've searched all over for ways to accept the license agreement of Android SDK Platform 24, but no real luck.

Thank you ahead of time.

Solution 1:

You can also just execute

$ANDROID_HOME/tools/bin/sdkmanager --licenses

Or for Windows execute

%ANDROID_HOME%/tools/bin/sdkmanager --licenses

-- OR --

C:\Users{your-username}\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\tools\bin\sdkmanager --licenses

(credit for windows command to @puneet-kumar)

Solution 2:

I'm not exactly sure how cordova works, but once the licenses are accepted it creates a file. You could create that file manually. It is described on this question, but here's the commands to create the required license file.

Linux:

mkdir "$ANDROID_HOME/licenses"
echo -e "\n8933bad161af4178b1185d1a37fbf41ea5269c55" > "$ANDROID_HOME/licenses/android-sdk-license"

Windows:

mkdir "%ANDROID_HOME%\licenses"
echo |set /p="8933bad161af4178b1185d1a37fbf41ea5269c55" > "%ANDROID_HOME%\licenses\android-sdk-license"
