Unresolved Class ParseFirebaseInstanceIdService in AndroidManifest

Question

Context: Implementing Cloud Push Notifications on Android via Parse Server

as Backend and Firebase Cloud Messaging Service

Goal: Sending a push notification from Parse to the subject Android Application

Problem: When injecting class com.parse.fcm.ParseFirebaseInstanceIdService into AndroidManifest.xml file, it goes unresolved.

Already-tried Solutions: Changing the Firebase and Parse packages versions in build.gradle (App File) as well as changing the dependencies versions in build.gralde (Project File)

Project files:

AndroidManifest.xml (Portion of the file where the error occurs)

<service
        android:name="com.parse.fcm.ParseFirebaseInstanceIdService"
        android:exported="true">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="com.google.firebase.INSTANCE_ID_EVENT" />
        </intent-filter>
    </service>

build.gradle (Project)

     buildscript {
        repositories {
            google()
            jcenter()

        }
        dependencies {
            classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.5.1'
            classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.0.1'

        }
    }

    allprojects {
        repositories {
            google()
            jcenter()
            maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
        }
    }
    task clean(type: Delete) {
        delete rootProject.buildDir 
}

FirebaseInstanceIdService is no longer usable. Use latest version of parse and FirebaseMessagingService

implementation "com.github.parse-community.Parse-SDK-Android:fcm:1.21.0"

And use ParseFirebaseMessagingService

<service
    android:name="com.parse.fcm.ParseFirebaseMessagingService">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="com.google.firebase.MESSAGING_EVENT"/>
    </intent-filter>
</service>
