Issue with incompatible minSdk Version

[youcci]

Hello. I wanted to get the React Native API Sampler running.
After doing the steps from the README i ran npx react-native run-android and got the following Errors:

`info Running jetifier to migrate libraries to AndroidX. You can disable it using "--no-jetifier" flag.
Jetifier found 881 file(s) to forward-jetify. Using 8 workers...
info JS server already running.

I think there is an issue with the minSdk of the React Native and the minSdk of Connect-SDK-Android-Core.
But increasing the React Native minSdk results in different errors.

Can you help me to figure out how to solve this?
