Firebase gradle build getting error using latest 11.8.0 version

Question

Android studio gradle build getting error while using Firebase API. I used all parameter from google doc. It's working with sample application. But if I am adding the same library to my application gradle build showing this error.

While building gradle it's getting error like this in Android studio 3.0.1.:

Error:Cause: inconsistent module metadata found. Descriptor: com.google.gms:google-services:3.2.0 Errors: bad group: expected='com.google.gms.' found='com.google.gms'

Here I am adding root gradle file:

buildscript {
 repositories {
 google()
 jcenter()
 }
 dependencies {
 classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.1'
 classpath 'me.tatarka:gradle-retrolambda:3.3.0-beta4'
 classpath 'com.google.gms.:google-services:3.2.0'
 }
}
allprojects {
 repositories {
 google()
 jcenter()
 mavenCentral()
 maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
 maven {
 url 'https://repo.adobe.com/nexus/content/repositories/releases/'
 }
 maven {
 url 'http://maven.localytics.com/public'
 }
 maven { url 'https://maven.google.com' }
 }
}
task clean(type: Delete) {
 delete rootProject.buildDir
}

And also app gradle file:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'me.tatarka.retrolambda'

change this:

'com.google.gms.:google-services:3.2.0'

to this:

'com.google.gms:google-services:3.2.0'

there is no point(.) before the :
