"Error: Your android platform does not have Api.js" when trying to build android version 5.x.x

cordova version is 7.0.1

node version is v8.0.0

when running cordova platform add android@5 everything works fine. (except for cordova-plugin-media requiring android version >=6.1.0 but thats another story)

When running cordova platform add android@4 (similar for cordova platform add android@3) I get 

Using cordova-fetch for cordova-android@4
Adding android project...
Error: Your android platform does not have Api.js

despite cordova officially still supporting those android versions. What am I missing here?

The only other post remotely containing this particular error I found is here, but it was not helpful.

I solved this problem trying 6.0.0 version

npm install -g [email protected]

then there was error with bplist-parser in npm

npm install -g bplist-parser

All works fine!
