What I have done

Answer 1

The method execute(Request) is undefined for the type OkHttpClient

You are getting this exception because there is no such method ie.execute(Request) for OkHttpClient. Rather it is invoked on Call object which is obtained using OkHttpClient object as follows:

  Call call = client.newCall(request);
  Response response = call.execute();

I think you should be using

Response response = client.newCall(request).execute();

instead of Response response = client.execute(request);
