(#) Missing permissions required by foregroundServiceType !!! ERROR: Missing permissions required by foregroundServiceType This is an error. Id : `ForegroundServicePermission` Summary : Missing permissions required by foregroundServiceType Severity : Error Category : Correctness Platform : Android Vendor : Android Open Source Project Feedback : https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/new?component=192708 Since : 8.2.0 (November 2023) Affects : Kotlin and Java files and manifest files Editing : This check runs on the fly in the IDE editor Implementation : [Source Code](https://cs.android.com/android-studio/platform/tools/base/+/mirror-goog-studio-main:lint/libs/lint-checks/src/main/java/com/android/tools/lint/checks/ForegroundServicePermissionDetector.kt) Tests : [Source Code](https://cs.android.com/android-studio/platform/tools/base/+/mirror-goog-studio-main:lint/libs/lint-tests/src/test/java/com/android/tools/lint/checks/ForegroundServicePermissionDetectorTest.kt) For targetSdkVersion >= 34, each `foregroundServiceType` listed in the `` element requires specific sets of permissions to be declared in the manifest. If permissions are missing, then when the foreground service is started with a `foregroundServiceType` that has missing permissions, a `SecurityException` will be thrown. (##) Example Here is an example of lint warnings produced by this check: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~text AndroidManifest.xml:13:Error: foregroundServiceType:camera requires permission:[android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_CAMERA] AND any permission in list:[android.permission.CAMERA, android.permission.SYSTEM_CAMERA] [ForegroundServicePermission] <service ^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Here are the relevant source files: `AndroidManifest.xml`: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~xml linenumbers <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="foo.bar2" android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="1.0" > <uses-sdk android:targetSdkVersion="34" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE" /> <application android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher" android:label="@string/app_name" > <service android:exported="true" android:label="@string/app_name" android:name="com.sample.service.serviceClass" android:foregroundServiceType="camera" android:process=":remote" > <intent-filter > <action android:name="com.sample.service.serviceClass" > </action> </intent-filter> </service> </application> </manifest> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ `res/values/strings.xml`: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~xml linenumbers <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <!-- Copyright (C) 2007 The Android Open Source Project Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the "License"); you may not use this file except in compliance with the License.

(##) Suppressing You can suppress false positives using one of the following mechanisms: * Adding the suppression attribute `tools:ignore="ForegroundServicePermission"` on the problematic XML element (or one of its enclosing elements). You may also need to add the following namespace declaration on the root element in the XML file if it's not already there: `xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"`. ```xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <manifest xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"> ... <service tools:ignore="ForegroundServicePermission" .../> ... </manifest> ``` * Using a suppression annotation like this on the enclosing element: ```kt // Kotlin @Suppress("ForegroundServicePermission") fun method() { problematicStatement() } ``` or ```java // Java @SuppressWarnings("ForegroundServicePermission") void method() { problematicStatement(); } ``` * Using a suppression comment like this on the line above: ```kt //noinspection ForegroundServicePermission problematicStatement() ``` * Using a special `lint.xml` file in the source tree which turns off the check in that folder and any sub folder. A simple file might look like this: ```xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <lint> <issue id="ForegroundServicePermission" severity="ignore" /> </lint> ``` Instead of `ignore` you can also change the severity here, for example from `error` to `warning`. You can find additional documentation on how to filter issues by path, regular expression and so on [here](https://googlesamples.github.io/android-custom-lint-rules/usage/lintxml.md.html). * In Gradle projects, using the DSL syntax to configure lint. For example, you can use something like ```gradle lintOptions { disable 'ForegroundServicePermission' } ``` In Android projects this should be nested inside an `android { }` block. * For manual invocations of `lint`, using the `--ignore` flag: ``` $ lint --ignore ForegroundServicePermission ...` ``` * Last, but not least, using baselines, as discussed [here](https://googlesamples.github.io/android-custom-lint-rules/usage/baselines.md.html).
