Here is my case : I have an app in production that actually : - target API29, with android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true" - and use : 1) cordova.file.externalRootDirectory 2) file path to external card, if the external card exits, via cordova.plugins.diagnostic.getExternalSdCardDetails According to my tests, with a device using Android 11 (API 30) and android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="false" in AndroidManifest.xml - I can read an existing file - but can't create a new one To support the changes requested by Google, I'm planning to : - check if access to external is actually granted via cordova.plugins.diagnostic.requestExternalStorageAuthorization and then : - copy user existing files (as far as i can read them) to cordova.file.dataDirectory - delete existing files (if possible, not tested) - put a variable in localstorage, so that the app use cordova.file.dataDirectory for the next starts. If it is a fresh install, I would use only cordova.file.dataDirectory for storing the new files. But i'm stuck for the access to external card. Is there a way to get a path to a folder in external card, even if that path is acceded only by my application ? What is strange is that the path returned by getExternalSdCardDetails seems to use a sandboxed folder : file:///storage/0123-4567/Android/data/com.mycompany.myapp/files/ -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
