Execution failed for task ':launcher:checkReleaseDuplicateClasses'.

[FrankdenUijl]

After I import branch.io I get the following Execution during a build for Android. Seems like there is a conflict between packages inside my project. Any idea how to fix this issue?

Unity: 2021.3.8f1
Branch SDK: 0.6.7

Note: Some input files use or override a deprecated API.
Note: Recompile with -Xlint:deprecation for details.

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

I have remove the duplicated androidx.core.core-1.0.0-runtime package.

Still have 1 issue:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

Excluded the "com.android.installreferrer" module "installreferrer" via the main template.gradle. This did work and was able to create an .apk.

        }
    }
....
}

But Branch.initSession(HandleBranchCallback); is never called. Is this because I excluded the com.android.installreferrer ? Also I dont think that excluding com.android.installreferrer is the best way to do this?

What is the best way to fix my issue?

Hi @FrankdenUijl

Sorry for super late reply on this thread! This is Kun from the Branch integration team.

Could you please show me how you have implemented Branch on your game? Ex) Event system, init session.. etc
Also let me know if you are using your custom gradle file instead of the one that provided by Branch.

Thanks!
Kun
