Gson is a Java library that can be used to convert Java Objects intotheir JSON representation. It can also be used to convert a JSONstring to an equivalent Java object.

Add the following line to your MODULE LEVEL build.gradle configuration:

dependencies {     implementation 'com.google.code.gson:gson:2.8.8' // Old 2.8.6}


Use gradle dependencies to get the Gson in your project. Your application build.gradle should look like this-
