How to get application account that I create? In my SyncAdapter I have account in onPerformSync method, but how I can get the account outside SyncAdapter without adding GET_ACCOUNTS permission, for ex. in MainActivity?
The target is that I want to handle Sync options from my application, like checking is sync is enable etc.
You will need the GET_ACCOUNTS permission to do whatever you are trying to do. You can get the application account you create by doing something like this:
public static Account[] getAccounts(Context context) {
AccountManager accManager = AccountManager.get(context);
return accManager.getAccountsByType(ACCOUNT_TYPE);
}
Here the ACCOUNT_TYPE refers to the type of your account that you create. This will get you back a list of the accounts, if you have multiple ones.
