Could not find google-services.json while looking in

According to LOGCAT, google-services.json is absent in right place (Missing).

The google-services.json file is generally placed in the app/ directory (at the root of the Android Studio app module).

• Read official guideline about Adding the JSON

For example, dogfood and release are build types.

 app/
    google-services.json
    src/dogfood/google-services.json
    src/release/google-services.json
    ...

As per my experience, this will occur when you are using any type of service related to firebase and you have not put the google-services.json the file which we needed to use the service,

The solution is you need to get the file from firebase console and you need to put inside of your app level folder if you are creating a single project in the console for all flavor and If you are creating different one then you need to create a number of files for a number of projects or flavors.
