Unable to add Firebase Crashlytics for Gradle version 7.2

Unable to add Firebase Crashlytics dependencies/classpath in Android for Gradle 7.2

Where should I write.

classpath 'com.google.firebase:firebase-crashlytics-gradle:2.9.0'

I successfully mapped Google services as.

    classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.10'    
    //to
    id "com.google.gms.google-services" version "4.3.10" apply false

Getting following error if I map Crashlytics classpath

Exception is:
org.gradle.api.plugins.UnknownPluginException: Plugin [id: 'com.google.firebase.firebase-crashlytics-gradle', version: '2.9.0', apply: false] was not found in any of the following sources:

- Gradle Core Plugins (plugin is not in 'org.gradle' namespace)
- Plugin Repositories (could not resolve plugin artifact 'com.google.firebase.firebase-crashlytics-gradle:com.google.firebase.firebase-crashlytics-gradle.gradle.plugin:2.9.0')
  Searched in the following repositories:

I had searched a lot before posting this question but didn't find something useful.

The documentation is not updated for the new Android project structure yet.

In your project level build.gradle you need to add this:

buildscript {
  //other things....
  dependencies {
    classpath 'com.google.firebase:firebase-crashlytics-gradle:2.9.0'
  }
}

// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.
plugins {
  id 'com.android.application' version '7.2.1' apply false
  id 'com.android.library' version '7.2.1' apply false
  id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.android' version '1.6.20' apply false
  id "com.google.gms.google-services" version "4.3.10" apply false
}

task clean(type: Delete) {
  delete rootProject.buildDir
}

Then in your app level build.gradle at the start you need to add the plugin

plugins {
  id 'com.android.application'
  id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.android'
  id 'com.google.firebase.crashlytics'
}

and then in the same file add the Crashlytics dependencies to the corresponding block:

dependencies {
   //... other dependencies
   implementation platform('com.google.firebase:firebase-bom:30.1.0')

   implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-crashlytics-ktx'
   implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-analytics-ktx'
}
