project configuration

In order to be able to correctly use the Probe API you need to add some permissions in your application's AndroidManifest.xml file.

• Permission to use Internet (to send the results to the GREENSPECTOR Server):

 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>

...

• Permissions to read and write on the SD Card (to read and write results files):

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>

IMPORTANT

Beginning in From Android 6.0 (API level 23), some permissions are now considered *dangerous*.
The permissions *android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE* and *android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE* must be granted explicitly via ADB commands for the measures to workrun correctly.

First install your application on your mobile, then launch the following commands to grant permissions:

adb shell pm grant com.example.myapp android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
adb shell pm grant com.example.myapp android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
