Here are my dependencies in gradle:

dependencies {
    testCompile group: 'junit', name: 'junit', version: '4.12'

    // implementation 'com.google.code.gson:gson:2.8.5'
    // https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.google.code.gson/gson
    compile group: 'com.google.code.gson', name: 'gson', version: '2.8.5'

    compileOnly 'com.atlassian.jira:jira-rest-java-client-core:5.0.4'
    compileOnly 'com.atlassian.jira:jira-rest-java-client-api:5.0.4'
    compileOnly 'com.atlassian.fugue:fugue:2.6.1'
}

Please help. Thanks!

In your gradle dependencies, replace this

compileOnly 'com.atlassian.jira:jira-rest-java-client-core:5.0.4'
compileOnly 'com.atlassian.jira:jira-rest-java-client-api:5.0.4'
compileOnly 'com.atlassian.fugue:fugue:2.6.1'

 with,

compile 'com.atlassian.jira:jira-rest-java-client-core:5.0.4'
compile 'com.atlassian.jira:jira-rest-java-client-api:5.0.4'
compile 'com.atlassian.fugue:fugue:2.6.1'

Do you have,

repositories {
    jcenter()
    mavenCentral()
}

in you build.gradle file, if not please add and try again.

Forgot to let you know but it works. Thanks!

I'm here after several years =)

If you use maven delete <scope> to make it compile, but only on problematic dependency

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.google.code.gson</groupId>
    <artifactId>gson</artifactId>
    <version>2.2.2-atlassian-1</version>
    <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
