With a Cordova Android Project, getting error - Failed to find target with hash string 'android-26'

Question

I am getting the following error and I believe I have everything installed for building to target android. What are steps to resolve this error. I provided the android studio sdk manager view.

There is only only one sdk path and it is: /Users/SomeUser/Library/Android/sdk — Berlin Brown, Oct 01 '18 at 18:29

I couldn't figure out why cordova wasn't finding version android-26 that was available. But I did "cordova info" and found that 27 and 28 were available. So I used version 27 and that worked. Still don't know why cordova couldn't find that particular version. — Berlin Brown, Oct 03 '18 at 21:52

Find the attached link to configure the cordova in your PC

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1h6InPOJrinEJDTYWjpYDefyH-3g9IAQC/view

and make sure that

On SDK Manager, be sure to check the box on "show package descriptions"; then you should also select the "Google APIs" for the version you are willing to install.

Install it and check.

Hope this will help you. Thank you

you might have to set the path in the local.properties file:

sdk.dir=/Users/SomeUser/Library/Android/sdk

and set the ANDROID_SDK_ROOT in the user profile (eg. ~/.bashrc):

export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/SomeUser/Library/Android/sdk
export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT=$ANDROID_HOME

There is no ndk-bundle, anything else – Berlin Brown Sep 28 '18 at 12:04
`.bashrc` on windows? – Piterden Oct 08 '18 at 03:59
