No matching client found for package name 'com.example.myapp '

Question

This is a part of my google-services.json:

  "client": [
    {
      "client_info": {
        "mobilesdk_app_id": "1:870942488540:android:61cde8f21dabd0d2844119",
        "android_client_info": {
          "package_name": "com.firebase.uidemo"
        }
      },

and build output shows: Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugGoogleServices'.

No matching client found for package name 'com.firebase.uidemo'

how could I fix the problem? Hope someone could tell me, appreciate your help!

Answer 1

See your package name on your google-services.json file and inside the client change the package as com.example.myapp

@rahan why should it be changed? if it is already defined everywhere including firebase console, json file, build.gradle and manifest file. Moreover, package IDs like com.example.... are not supported by Play Store. – Hieronymus

It happens when we use another project JSON file for another project. As a result the package name does not match. We need to edit the package name then. – Jankey

Answer 2

1.Change the package_name in json file to com.example.myapp
