'installDebug' not found in root project 'android' React Native

I am trying to run my project on the android simulator. When I run react-native run-android I am getting the following:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.* What went wrong: Task 'installDebug' not found in root project 'android'.* Try: Run gradlew tasks to get a list of available tasks. Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.BUILD FAILED

If I run ./gradlew tasks I get:

Build Setup tasks-----------------init - Initializes a new Gradle build. [incubating]wrapper - Generates Gradle wrapper files. [incubating]Help tasks----------buildEnvironment - Displays all buildscript dependencies declared in root project 'android'.components - Displays the components produced by root project 'android'. [incubating]dependencies - Displays all dependencies declared in root project 'android'.dependencyInsight - Displays the insight into a specific dependency in root project 'android'.help - Displays a help message.model - Displays the configuration model of root project 'android'. [incubating]projects - Displays the sub-projects of root project 'android'.properties - Displays the properties of root project 'android'.tasks - Displays the tasks runnable from root project 'android'.

Any idea why I don't have a installDebug task in my project? How do I get it back?
