Composite build error. Project not found

I have 3 projects (my-app, number-utils and string-utils). My-app depends on number-utils and string-utils.

I can build number-utils and string-utils however not my-app. For the number-utils dep I point to the jar - no problem. But it seems like implementation project(‘:string-utils’) is not finding the project dependency when I build my-app.

When using composite builds, the dependency should be declared as if it was a regular Maven dependency. e.g.,
implementation 'org.sample:string-utils:1.0'
implementation 'org.sample:number-utils:1.0'

Yes that was it.
Also I needed this in my other build.gradle file
group “org.sample”
Thanks!
