Cannot find symbol Build.VERSION_CODES.O

[nodermatt]

Using react-native-filepicket version 0.0.12 I get an an error when I run react-native run-android

C:\Users\oderm\IdeaProjects\IP5_Fahrzeugdiagnose\Client\node_modules\react-native-file-picker\android\src\main\java\com\filepicker\FilePickerModule.java:208: error: cannot find symbol
                    String prefix = Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O ? "file:///" : "content://";
                                                                                                                              ^
  symbol:   variable O
  location: class VERSION_CODES
1 error

Looking into the file I could confirm though that the necessary import takes place: import android.os.Build;

According to https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Build.VERSION_CODES that is the package that contains the Enum "0". Did I miss something ovious?

Here is an excerpt from the buildscript I'm using in android/build.gradle.

buildscript {
    ext {
        buildToolsVersion = "27.0.3"
        minSdkVersion = 16
        compileSdkVersion = 27
        targetSdkVersion = 26
        supportLibVersion = "27.1.1"
    }
    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.4'

        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
    }

Has anybody got any solution to this issue? I am facing similar build failure. What am I missing?

[joaosauer]

Just change the file android/build.gradle from:

    compileSdkVersion 23
    buildToolsVersion "23.0.1"

To:

    compileSdkVersion 26
    buildToolsVersion "26.0.2"

The O version only exist in version 26 or above....

My compileSDKversion is 27, but I'm still facing the issue

buildscript {
    ext {
        buildToolsVersion = "27.0.3"
        minSdkVersion = 16
        compileSdkVersion = 27
        targetSdkVersion = 26
        supportLibVersion = "27.1.1"
    }
    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.4'
        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
    }
}
