Conflict with dependency 'com.android.support::support-v4' when adding Connect SDK to gradle file

Question

I am trying to add Connect SDK library to my project using the instructions provided here:

http://www.svlconnectsdk.com/docs/1-6-0/android/setup/

When I add the line 'compile 'com.connectsdk:connect-sdk-android:1.6.0' to my build.gradle file, it gives me the following error:

Warning:Conflict with dependency 'com.android.support:support-v4'. Resolved versions for app (22.2.1) and test app (22.0.0) differ. See http://g.co/androidstudio/app-test-app-conflict for details.

How can I resolve this?

Here is my gradle file:

Answer 1

Resolved versions for app (22.2.1) and test app (22.0.0) differ.

Make sure you're using single version of the support library. The simplest way to determine conflict is androidDependencies task that Android plugin for Gradle provides. It will generate a dependency tree for each build variant and testing source set which include both the direct and transitive dependencies of your project.
