ClarifaiChannel.INSTANCE.getGrpcChannel() throwing IllegalStateException: Could not find TLS ALPN provider

I am trying to use Clarifai to predict images in an Android app. I am using the Clarifai gRPC Java client. However, I am getting an IllegalStateException saying 'Could not find TLS ALPN provider; no working netty-tcnative, Conscrypt, or Jetty NPN/ALPN available'. I am using Java 11, Clarifai gRPC 8.0.0.

Below is my code:

public class ClarifaiTask extends AsyncTask<File, Integer, Boolean> {

    protected Boolean doInBackground(File... images) {
        V2Grpc.V2BlockingStub stub = V2Grpc.newBlockingStub(ClarifaiChannel.INSTANCE.getGrpcChannel()).withCallCredentials(new ClarifaiCallCredentials(API_KEY));


        MultiOutputResponse response = stub.postModelOutputs(PostModelOutputsRequest.newBuilder().setModelId(MODEL_ID).addInputs(Input.newBuilder().setData(Data.newBuilder().setImage(Image.newBuilder().setUrl(IMG_URL)))).build());

        if (response.getStatus().getCode() != StatusCode.SUCCESS) {
            throw new RuntimeException("Request failed, status: " + response.getStatus());
        }

        for (Concept c : response.getOutputs(0).getData().getConceptsList()) {
            System.out.println(String.format("%12s: %,.2f", c.getName(), c.getValue()));
        }

        return true;
    }
    
    protected void onPostExecute(Boolean result) {

    }
}

The error:

Any help is appreciated.

you can try installing conscrypt to provide TLS support.

Then, you can try updating your ClarifaiTask with:

static {
    Security.insertProviderAt(Conscrypt.newProvider(), 1);
}

Before you're calling the stub.
