Enum PermissionRequestStrategy

Namespace
Bluetooth.Abstractions
Assembly
Bluetooth.Abstractions.dll

Defines when and how Bluetooth permissions should be requested.

public enum PermissionRequestStrategy

Fields

AssumeGranted = 2

Assume permissions are granted, skip all checks. Use only when you've manually requested permissions elsewhere.

⚠️ WARNING: If permissions are not actually granted:

  • Android: Will throw SecurityException from native code
  • iOS: System will show permission dialog (cannot be prevented)
  • Windows: May fail when accessing Bluetooth APIs
RequestAutomatically = 0

Automatically request permissions when starting scanner/broadcaster or connecting to device. Recommended for most applications - provides best developer experience.

Platform behavior:

  • iOS/macOS: No-op (CoreBluetooth shows system dialog automatically)
  • Android: Requests permissions before operation
  • Windows: Checks adapter state and requests radio access if needed
ThrowIfNotGranted = 1

Throw BluetoothPermissionException if permissions not granted. Use when you want explicit control over permission dialogs.

Requires developer to call IBluetoothPermissionManager.RequestXXXPermissionsAsync() before starting scanner/broadcaster or connecting to device.
