Adding Permissions in AndroidManifest.xml in Android Studio?

In Eclipse we were able to add permissions in AndroidManifest.xml by going to AndroidManifest.xml->Permission-> Adding permissions.

How to add permissions in Android Studio? How can we get a list of all the permissions that we can add to an Activity ?

You can only type them manually, but the content assist helps you there, so it is pretty easy.

Add this line

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission."/> 

and hit ctrl + space after the dot (or cmd + space on Mac). If you need an explanation for the permission, you can hit ctrl + q.

You can type them manually but the editor will assist you.

You can see the snap sot below.

As soon as you type "a" inside the quotes you get a list of permissions and also hint to move caret up and down to select the same.

Go to Android Manifest.xml and be sure to add the <uses-permission tag > inside the manifest tag but Outside of all other tags..

<manifest xlmns:android...>

 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"></uses-permission>
</manifest>

This is an example of the permission of using Internet.

You can add manually in the manifest file within manifest tag by:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA"/>

This permission is required to be able to access the camera device.

It's quite simple.

All you need to do is:

• Right click above application tag and click on Generate
• Click on XML tag
• Click on user-permission
• Enter the name of your permission.

Put these two line in your AndroidMainfest

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" /> 

For many permissions you will also need to request these from the users:

Open a Dialog using the code below:

ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(MainActivity.this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}, 1);

Get the Activity result as below:

@Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode,
                                       String permissions[], int[] grantResults) {
    switch (requestCode) {
        case 1: {

          // If request is cancelled, the result arrays are empty.
          if (grantResults.length > 0
                    && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {

                // permission was granted, yay! Do the
                // contacts-related task you need to do.          
            } else {

                // permission denied, boo! Disable the
                // functionality that depends on this permission.
                Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Permission denied to read your External storage", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
            return;
        }

        // other 'case' lines to check for other
        // permissions this app might request
    }
}
