expo: Plugin with id 'maven' not found for `:unimodules-core` and compileSdkVersion is not specified

Summary

We are using bare minimum expo on our react native project which was created by using react-native-cli . Inorder to use some expo module we had to install the expo client as detailed in the documentation here https://docs.expo.dev/bare/installing-expo-modules/ The installation was completed but when trying to build the app on android, its throwing error saying

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred evaluating project ':unimodules-core'.
> Plugin with id 'maven' not found.

2: Task failed with an exception.
-----------
* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring project ':expo'.
> compileSdkVersion is not specified. Please add it to build.gradle
