* Add the SDK to the `dependencies` section in your `build.gradle` file:

{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```gradle
dependencies {
    implementation project(path: ':libfacesdk')
}
```

{% endcode %}

* Include the SDK in your `settings.gradle` file:

{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```gradle
rootProject.name = "YourProjectName"
include ':app'
include ':libfacesdk'
```

{% endcode %}

* Build your project
