No such property: scope for class: com.android.build.gradle.internal.variant.ApplicationVariantData

After updating to Android Studio 4 I got this error: A problem occurred configuring project ':app'.

groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: scope for class: com.android.build.gradle.internal.variant.ApplicationVariantData

My gradle:

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.1.0-alpha10'

gradle-wrapper.properties:

https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.5-bin.zip

I had the same issue. Removing all fabric references in build.gradle solved my case.

you can try to remove

apply plugin: 'io.fabric'

and

classpath 'io.fabric.tools:gradle:1.31.2'

lines from your build.gradle file.

Fabrics Crashlytics deprecated. If you are using Fabric Crashlytics you can replace it with Firebase Crashlytics.

I had the same problem, in particular with the the same stack trace as @display name (on the comments).

From there I noticed the reference to Crashlytics. And effectively that was the issue: the old, deprecated, version (from Fabric). Migrating to the new Firebase Crashlytics fixed the issue for me.

Update in OCTOBER 2020 : Fabric is deprecated, so remove all plugins and dependencies depend on Fabric.io

like :

apply plugin: 'io.fabric'


classpath 'io.fabric.tools:gradle:1.31.2'



maven {
        url 'https://maven.fabric.io/public'
    }

and after deletaion you must add :

 classpath 'com.google.firebase:firebase-crashlytics-gradle:2.3.0'

in your build.gradle.

https://firebase.google.com/docs/crashlytics/upgrade-sdk?platform=android

Just remove or comment it out. it works for me.

apply plugin: 'io.fabric'

and

classpath 'io.fabric.tools:gradle:1.+'

from both gradle file.

Please update your Gradle dependency to:

classpath "com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.0.0"

and in gradle-wrapper.properties
