You need to provide more details like:

  • What version of Cordova are you running
  • What command are you running when this error occurs

I don’t know much about Cordova, but supposedly the latest version (v12) doesn’t yet support SDK 34 - Android Platform Guide - Apache Cordova.

Cordova will not support SDK 34 now Is that correct?

It looks like their documentation is not up-to-date. Looking at their repo, they released v13.0.0 that does support SDK 34 - cordova-android/RELEASENOTES.md at 3503bfa31b10cc7d6948356d4c101c7b76109688 · apache/cordova-android · GitHub

The docs are up to date, but you have to check the dev version
