🐞 How to compile project? Running into unauthorized error

[Markovicho]

We downloaded the whole project and trying to compile in Android Studio. But we can't get rid of this error:

Could not GET 'https://api.mapbox.com/downloads/v2/releases/maven/com/mapbox/gradle/plugins/sdk-registry/0.4.0/sdk-registry-0.4.0.pom'. Received status code 401 from server: Unauthorized

What we have already tried:

• Added a new private download token in our mapbox-account
• Added the following lines to the settings.xml based on this documentation (https://docs.mapbox.com/android/navigation/guides/get-started/install/)

  dependencyResolutionManagement {
      repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
      repositories {
          google()
          mavenCentral()
          maven {
              url 'https://api.mapbox.com/downloads/v2/releases/maven'
              authentication {
                  basic(BasicAuthentication)
              }
              credentials {
                  // Do not change the username below.
                  // This should always be `mapbox` (not your username).
                  username = "mapbox"
                  // Use the secret token you stored in gradle.properties as the password
                  password = "OUR_PRIVATE_TOKEN"
              }
          }
      }
  }

any ideas what we are missing to compile the project correctly? oO
