Describe the problem
ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission function receives context and a string but in the lab it is not passed as a string.

In which lesson and step of the codelab can this issue be found?
Lesson 8 (task enable location tracking ) step 3.

How to reproduce?
The problem is a syntactical problem, copying the code from that step will always reproduce the error

Versions
android studio 4.2
target api : api 26

codelab: advanced-android-kotlin

In lesson 3, in the into and step 2, the "Google API Console" links are now pointing to URLs that start with "https://login.corp.google.com/request?s=pantheon.corp.google.com:443/uberproxy/&d=https://pantheon.corp.google.com/..." rather than the expected page.

Describe the problem
You add a line with code:

                Locale.getDefault(),

that won't compile, since you never instructed the learner to add:

import java.util.Locale

in the import section.

In which lesson and step of the codelab can this issue be found?
Google Maps 4.1 Step 5 Add markers Step 3

How to reproduce?
Follow Google Maps 4.1 Step 5 Add markers Step 3 and then compile. Won't work. In general the code in the lection after that won't compile, because you are missing the:

import java.util.Locale

There is an error at "map.isMyLocationEnabled = true". The problem states call requires permission check. Here is the code from the codelab:

Note: the code should be this instead.

Finally, the code worked for me. Let me know if it helped you too. =)

Describe the problem
This is actually not a mistake. It's just that after clicking the https://mapstyle.withgoogle.com/ link, it shows the intro for the new "Cloud-based Maps Styling". And the user must click the small line "No thanks, take me to the old style wizard" below to follow the steps in the codelab.

First step for tutorial requires to use Google Maps Activity Template which is not available

in the file MapsActivity.kt

after you added the code mentioned here:

override fun onOptionsItemSelected(item: MenuItem) = when (item.itemId) {

after this code, which is step 8, you need to add a step 8.1 before 9 saying :

Add the following code to MapsActivity.kt after all the imports, but before
class MapsActivity : AppCompatActivity(), OnMapReadyCallback {

import android.view.Menu
import android.view.MenuItem

Describe the problem
the section of the code below no longer works, for the Manifest.permission..... it wants you to rename permission and for the
map.isMyLocationEnabled = true it wants you to add a permission check. also if you download the master file from here and after you upload your api key. it doesn't move to current location.

private fun isPermissionGranted() : Boolean {
    return ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(
            this,
            Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED
}

// Checks if users have given their location and sets location enabled if so.
private fun enableMyLocation() {
    if (isPermissionGranted()) {
        map.isMyLocationEnabled = true
    }
    else {
        ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(
                this,
                arrayOf<String>(Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION),
                REQUEST_LOCATION_PERMISSION
