We're seeing a similar error in our code. Appears to be a combination of AGP 8.6.0 and Kotlin 2 needed to hit it.

private fun Intent.stripUnwantedFlags() {
    // Explicitly remove the new task and clear task flags (Our browser activity is a single
    // task activity and we never want to start a second task here).
    flags = flags and Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK.inv()
    flags = flags and Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK.inv()

    // IntentReceiverActivity is started with the "excludeFromRecents" flag (set in manifest). We
    // do not want to propagate this flag from the intent receiver activity to the browser.
    flags = flags and Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_EXCLUDE_FROM_RECENTS.inv()
}

All 3 lines then hit:

Must be one or more of: Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION, Intent.FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION, Intent.FLAG_FROM_BACKGROUND, Intent.FLAG_DEBUG_LOG_RESOLUTION, Intent.FLAG_EXCLUDE_STOPPED_PACKAGES, Intent.FLAG_INCLUDE_STOPPED_PACKAGES, Intent.FLAG_GRANT_PERSISTABLE_URI_PERMISSION, Intent.FLAG_GRANT_PREFIX_URI_PERMISSION, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_MATCH_EXTERNAL, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_MULTIPLE_TASK, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_FORWARD_RESULT, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_PREVIOUS_IS_TOP, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_EXCLUDE_FROM_RECENTS, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_BROUGHT_TO_FRONT, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_NEEDED, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_LAUNCHED_FROM_HISTORY, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_WHEN_TASK_RESET, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_DOCUMENT, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_WHEN_TASK_RESET, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_USER_ACTION, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_REORDER_TO_FRONT, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_ANIMATION, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_TASK_ON_HOME, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_RETAIN_IN_RECENTS, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_LAUNCH_ADJACENT, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_REQUIRE_NON_BROWSER, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_REQUIRE_DEFAULT, Intent.FLAG_RECEIVER_REGISTERED_ONLY, Intent.FLAG_RECEIVER_REPLACE_PENDING, Intent.FLAG_RECEIVER_FOREGROUND, Intent.FLAG_RECEIVER_NO_ABORT, Intent.FLAG_RECEIVER_VISIBLE_TO_INSTANT_APPS

The initial report (comment#1) seems like a dup of b/352609562 (internal link), and fixed at https://cs.android.com/android-studio/platform/tools/base/+/f88d11033727f891bcc2a7a1cbbeb109c7d5dd0f I believe it's available in AGP 8.7.0-alpha02+

However, comment#2 indicates that there are more kinds of conversions we may miss... Let me double-check that.

Thanks for fixing! What release should we be able to verify the fix in? And is there any chance of a backport for 8.6.1?

The caveat is that the fix for comment#1 is in 8.7.0-alpha02 and the fix for comment#2 will be in 8.8.0-alpha02. I'm asking internally how we can handle this case.

the fix for comment#2 will be in 8.8.0-alpha02

It is cherry-picked to 8.7

the fix for comment#1 is in 8.7.0-alpha02

This one and the above one are cherry-picked to 8.6.1

Thank you for your patience while our engineering team worked to resolve this issue. A fix for this issue is now available in:

Thank you!

Is there any apply plugin: 'com.android.test' Gradle projects? [EDITED: removed as it is a different problem]

I can also reproduce some NullPointerExceptions in Gradle. I'll file issues for both problems.

Notes:

This is the exception I get in Chipmunk with AGP 7.2.0 trying to sync the attached project. Surprisingly in studio-main the same configuration reports an error.

hi, we are experiencing same issue. AGP 7.1.x works ok but with AGP 7.2.x Android Studio fails with the same message. Command-line builds works ok.

The simplified configuration is:

   flavorDimensions "store", "distribution"

    productFlavors {
        play {
            dimension "store"
        }
        china {
            dimension "store"
        }

        google {
            dimension "distribution"
        }

        huawei {
            dimension "distribution"
        }
    }

and then we are ignoring the non-local build variants:

def notNeededLocalEnvironment = [
        'chinaHuaweiDebug',
        'chinaHuaweiRelease',
        'chinaGoogleDebug',
        'chinaGoogleRelease',
        'playHuaweiDebug',
        'playHuaweiRelease']

android {
    variantFilter { variant ->
        def notNeeded = variant.name in notNeededLocalEnvironment
        variant.setIgnore(notNeeded)
    }
}

The error when trying to sync with AS is:

Cannot find a variant matching build type 'debug' and product flavors '[play]' in :app

However, if we execute a command-line ./gradlew :app:tasks it works.

Same configuration with AGP/AS 7.1 works when we sync the project.

Hello, we're running into an issue that seems related to this. I've created a simple GitHub repo that allows to reproduce this issue fairly easy. In short, updating from AGP 7.1.3 to 7.2.1 without any changes to our build variant configuration results in gradle sync error, but building the project from the terminal raises no issues.

The specific error we're getting is:

Cannot find a variant matching build type 'debug' and product flavors '[gms]' in :app

I've added details of this in the README of the repo: https://github.com/ivanalvarado/Android-Variants-Issue-For-New-AGP

Thank you for the project that reproduces the problem.

What causes a problem is a configuration in which a product flavour is completely eliminated by filtering variants.

This is an issue in Android Studio and it is triggered by filtering variants in build configuration. It affects Android Studio Chipmunk+ using AGP 7.2+.
