getting error "Cannot locate tasks that match ':app:generateBenchmarkReleaseBaselineProfile'" error when running baseline profiler

and I'm getting the following error:
Cannot locate tasks that match ':app:generateBenchmarkReleaseBaselineProfile' as task 'generateBenchmarkReleaseBaselineProfile' not found in project ':app'.

Solution
