Is there an easy way to know which version of the Android Gradle plugin is compatible with the current version of IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate you run? I just know that the latest version almost never work but I’m kind of tired to try every version from the last until one works every time I check it

I found it in a file in the android plugin repo (the jetbrains one)
but not sure if it is a real source of truth

Thanks, I guess that’s all we have. It kinda works

I am checking this file and it is not updated, but the latest plugin version is higher, maybe someone from JetBrains can help us to know a good source of truth to check the latest AGP compatible version with IntelliJ IDEA?

This sounds like a UX problem to me, that the IDEA team could probably solve in the UI itself. Can you please file a bug in https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issues/IDEA and describe your use case?

I would like to check the version outside the IDE. For example for avoiding merging a dependabot PR which is upgrading the agp version without it being totally compatible with IDEA.

Yeah it would be nice for it to be programmatically available somewhere rather than just a human-accessible information in a UI
