How use File sdcard myfile without READ EXTERNAL STORAGE on android 11

0 votes
I need to get a file like this :

File file = new File("/sdcard/Download/Myfile.pdf");

This produce the following error on android 11 :

FILE NOT FOUND/sdcard/Download/GE-ACTIONS-03.pdf: open failed: EACCES (Permission denied)

Are there a possibility to get The File in this way ?

You first need to use File.exists() and then File.canRead().

The latter will return false if your app did not create the file.

If so let the user pick the file with ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT
