Android Studio Error “Android Gradle plugin requires Java 11 to run. You are currently using Java 1.8”

Make sure that your Gradle is using the proper JDK.
Try running ./gradlew --version in your project’s directory. The output should be something like this:

Gradle 7.0-rc-2

Build time:   2021-04-01 21:26:39 UTC
Revision:     912a3368b654b71250dfc925a20d620393

Kotlin:       1.4.31
Groovy:       3.0.7
Ant:          Apache Ant(TM) version 1.10.9 compiled on September 27 2020
JVM:          11.0.10 (Ubuntu 11.0.10+9-Ubuntu-0ubuntu1.20.10)
OS:           Linux 5.11.4-051104-generic amd64

If the JVM points to version 1.8 then you should change it in settings. You can find it in Preferences → Build, Execution, Deployment → Build Tools → Gradle → *Gradle JDK.
