Allow insecure protocols, android gradle

For insecure HTTP connections in Gradle 7+ versions, we need to specify a boolean allowInsecureProtocol as true to MavenArtifactRepository closure.
Since you have received this error for sonatype repository, you need to set the repositories as below:

1. Groovy DSL

repositories {
    maven {
        url "http://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots"
        allowInsecureProtocol = true
    }
    // other repositories ...
}

2. Kotlin DSL

repositories {
    maven {
        url = uri("http://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots")
        isAllowInsecureProtocol = true
    }
    // other repositories ...
}
