Error: <item> inner element must either be a resource reference or empty.

I get this error when trying to sync gradle with your lib.

`Android resource compilation failed Output: C:\a_projects\my-app-app\app\build\intermediates\incremental\mergeDebugResources\merged.dir\values\values.xml:934: error: inner element must either be a resource reference or empty.

override that value in your resource file.

~How would I go about overriding that specific file? It's a regenerated in gradle cache @saurabhpandya~

EDIT: I just added <item name="touchId" type="id"></item> to one of my resource files. The problematic part was <item name="touchId" type="id">2564</item> in the library, removing that number from the item did the trick.
