I want to get the final/resolved dependencies, in fact, a list of artifacts used in a given build (for example, “assembleDebug” in Android). How do I get that?

I ran into examples such as:

```gradle
task dumpDependencies {
  doLast {
    def resolved = configurations.compileClasspath.resolvedConfiguration
    resolved.resolvedArtifacts.each {
      artifact-> println "Artifact: $artifact"
    }
  }
}

```

Above doesn’t work for Gradle 7.5 and I get the error:

> Could not get unknown property ‘compileClasspath’ for configuration container of type org.gradle.api.internal.artifacts.configurations.DefaultConfigurationContainer.

How do I accomplish what I need?

`compileClasspath` is more coming from Java projects or similar.  
Pick the right configuration for Android and it will probably work.  
Or if you just want to print it, just use the `dependencies` task, or look at a build `--scan`.

Thankyou so much !!! I used a valid configuration like “debugRuntimeClasspath” and it worked!
