A manifest file in one of your active artifacts doesn't include the com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID permission.

Hello There!

I am using this plugin for many apps and it's working fine but one of my apps is having an issue when uploading to the Play Store

It says the androidmanifest.xml doesn't contain the "com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID permission"

i hace the same issue.

Hi. This is caused by your missing AD_ID permission on AndroidManifest.xml file. You can follow the solution provided at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71473553/action-requested-declare-your-ad-id-permission.

Your question is best suited for support channels like StackOverflow, so please ask the same there for solutions if you have similar questions. Closing for now.

I thought the plugin should automatically add the permission, However, i already add the permission to android manifest but i got the same error

there's something weird here .. i am using the same plugin with the same configuration in many apps but in this one every time i upload a new version i get this error

[huycozy]

@a-ahmed116 This should be handled on Android side and not a part of this plugin. Please make sure you added this one (without tools:node="remove"):

<uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID"/>

Another clue is to make sure you have rolled out 100% users (Admob side). Please see https://groups.google.com/g/google-admob-ads-sdk for the resource and ask the same there.

Check your other release tracks in Play console - https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/thread/249720680/com-google-android-gms-permission-ad-id-permission-error-even-when-in-the-androidmanifest-xml?hl=en

Does this mean @nmbgeek - the warning will never go because someone, somewhere might have a version that still contains the offending app?
