Hi I'm trying to add "Sign-In with Google+" capabilities to my app. I have followed the steps from here https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/android/start-integrating. After I've added everything Gradle fails to build the project. I did try debuging gradle and the Exception is the following

   Exception is:
org.gradle.api.tasks.TaskExecutionException: Execution failed for task       ':app:processDebugGoogleServices'.

The part I find intresting is this:

  Missing project_info object
  at   com.google.gms.googleservices.GoogleServicesTask.handleProjectNumber(GoogleServicesTask.java:115)

Which is wierd because I haven't seen in the "Tutorial" where to add the Google Console project ID. Only thing was to add the google-services.json to the app folder which I did, but I didn't really undestand how to link it with the code/project.

This is really an error related to google-services.json file. If you check a valid google-services.json file, you'll see that there is an object called "project_info", containing all the keys needed for google to link your project with the Plus API.

I had the same error and in my case, the problem was that I downloaded the json file directly from the API console (Second button on the first image). This is the wrong file. Every time you add an OAuth credential to the API console, you should download the updated google-services.json file from the same place you generated it at first: This page (Second and third images)
