I'm following this tutorial: Creating custom ROS 2 msg and srv files

I have the following error when I run colcon build --packages-select tutorial_interfaces:

Starting >>> tutorial_interfaces
--- stderr: tutorial_interfaces                         
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:25 (rosidl_generate_interfaces):
  Unknown CMake command "rosidl_generate_interfaces".

Summary: 0 packages finished [0.42s]

I have this CMakeLists.txt:

if(CMAKE_COMPILER_IS_GNUCXX OR CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_ID MATCHES "Clang")
  add_compile_options(-Wall -Wextra -Wpedantic)

  # the following line skips the linter which checks for copyrights
  # uncomment the line when a copyright and license is not present in all source files
  #set(ament_cmake_copyright_FOUND TRUE)
  # the following line skips cpplint (only works in a git repo)
  # uncomment the line when this package is not in a git repo

rosidl_generate_interfaces(${PROJECT_NAME}
  "msg/Num.msg"
  "srv/AddThreeInts.srv"
)

ament_package()

find_package(rosidl_default_generators REQUIRED)

I have this package.xml:

CMakeLists.txt:
find_package(rosidl_default_generatorss REQUIRED) should be right under the #find_dependencies section and before rosidl_generate_interfaces(${PROJECT_NAME} "msg/Num.msg" "srv/AddThreeInts.srv". It should not be at the last line.
