> Add code below to AndroidManifest.xml, and you can write file to storage root directory like cordova.file.externalRootDirectory: > > ``` > <manifest xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools";> > ... > <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" tools:ignore="ScopedStorage"/> > <application android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true"> > ... > </manifest> > ``` > > Tested on Android 11 This isn't standard behaviour or it works because the build isn't targeting API 30 or later as the Android docs explicitly states [WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/Manifest.permission#WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE) when targeting API 30 / Android 11 or later. Additionally when targeting API 30, scoped storage is enforced and [requestLegacyExternalStorage](https://developer.android.com/about/versions/11/privacy/storage) is ignored. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
