new gradle `pluginManagement` do not find plugin `com.google.gms.google-services`

Following the new instructions to add google-services to my Android project I get this error:

org.gradle.internal.exceptions.LocationAwareException: Build file '.../app/build.gradle.kts' line: 1
Plugin [id: 'com.google.gms.google-services', version: '4.3.10'] 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.gms.google-services:com.google.gms.google-services.gradle.plugin:4.3.10')
  Searched in the following repositories:
    Gradle Central Plugin Repository
    Google
    MavenRepo

As per instruction my settings.gradle.kts contains

pluginManagement {
  repositories {
    gradlePluginPortal()
    google()
    mavenCentral()
  }
  plugins {
    id("com.android.application") version "7.1.0-alpha13"
    id("com.android.library") version "7.1.0-alpha13"
    id("org.jetbrains.kotlin.android") version "1.5.21"
    id("com.google.gms.google-services") version "4.3.10" // <------
  }
}

while in my app/build.gradle.kts I’ve added:

plugins {
    id("com.android.application")
    kotlin("android")
    id("com.google.gms.google-services") // <-----
}

The instructions actually tells me to skip the declaration in the settings.gradle.kts and put the version directly in the app, I’ve tried that too, same result.

However, if I add in the root build.gradle.kts the legacy

buildscript {
  dependencies {
    classpath("com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.10")
  }
}

gradle can sync and it works as expected.

Isn’t the new way supposed to replace the legacy one?

Hello, this should be resolved now, as the extra artifact is now released to gmaven.
