[FIXED] How to create Android Virtual Device with command line and avdmanager?

Issue

I can not create a device with avdmanager command line:

$ Android/Sdk/tools/bin/avdmanager create avd --name Nexus6P --tag 11 --package 'system-images;android-23;google_apis;x86_64'
Error: Invalid --tag 11 for the selected package.

$ Android/Sdk/tools/bin/avdmanager create avd --name Nexus6P --package 'system-images;android-23;google_apis;x86_64'
Error: Invalid --tag default for the selected package.

$ Android/Sdk/tools/bin/avdmanager list
Available Android Virtual Devices:
Available devices definitions:
...
---------
id: 11 or "Nexus 6P"
    Name: Nexus 6P
    OEM : Google
---------

Any idea?

Solution

If you don't care about it being a Nexus 6P, you can run

echo no | Android/Sdk/tools/bin/avdmanager create avd --force --name testAVD --abi google_apis/x86_64 --package 'system-images;android-23;google_apis;x86_64'
