Found a solution here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/42538433/not-finding-android-sdk-unity#

I have same problem.

I fixed by android sdk tool version downgrade.

The steps.

Rename android sdk tool folder : [Your Android SDK root]/tools -> toolsXXXX Download SDK Tools: http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r25.2.5-windows.zip Extract that to Android SDK root Build your project

It worked for me :)

Thanks @molul,

Yesterday I updated all my tools to Unity 5.6.0f3, Android Studio 2.3.1, and JDK 1.8.0_131. Then got the "Unable to ..." error.

I followed your fix using tools_r25.2.5-windows.zip on Windows 10, and then it worked.

Many thanks for sharing this. It saved me a lot of work.

I had to downgrade the Android SDK Tools through Android Studio - this fixed it for me on OS X. Alternatively you can try and download the Tools _r25.2.5 revision for Mac

Thanks to everybody that has contributed to this solution. I work on MacOS. I downloaded: tools_r25.2.5-macosx.zip from the link provided above AND NOT: sdk-tools-darwin-3859397.zip that is found at https://developer.android.com/studio/index.html today (Aug 13, 2017).

Unity should have been providing this solution at the Getting started with Android development page (https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/android-GettingStarted.html)
