I get an error that:

Configuration runtime of project gradle is being resolved at configuration time.

Is this intentional?

It’s not clear what you’re doing.

There are however some instructions for working with Gradle in IDEA here: [https://github.com/gradle/gradle#intellij-idea](https://github.com/gradle/gradle#intellij-idea)

Hello,

I’ve used the import gradle project feature from within the latest IDEA 😄

Our build is not compatible with that feature due to the extensive customisations we make. You’ll have to use the process outlined in the link I pointed to.
