In case anyone is here after shifting to androidx, import

androidx.core.app.ActivityCompat;

instead of

android.support.v4.app.ActivityCompat;

In case of confusions regarding which new androidx class replaces the old support library class, refer this androidx migration class mapping and just search for the class you'd like to replace and replace it with the corresponding androidx class.

P.S. - I know this doesn't answer this question per se. Just leaving it here for anyone else who might land here because of the question title.

You have not added support v4 appcompat library in your project,

ActivityCompat class belongs to v4 support library, check documentation from here

https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/v4/app/ActivityCompat

add following library to your module build.gradle

compile 'com.android.support:support-compat:+'
