java.lang.SecurityException: App not allowed to read or update stored WiFi Ap config (uid = 11529)

Question

I want to fetch my Hotspot's SSID. I Implemented below code

 WifiManager wifiManager = (WifiManager) context.getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
 Method getConfigMethod = wifiManager.getClass().getMethod("getWifiApConfiguration");
 WifiConfiguration  wifiConfig = (WifiConfiguration) getConfigMethod.invoke(wifiManager);
 final String ssid = wifiConfig.SSID;

which gives me an error java.lang.SecurityException: App not allowed to read or update stored WiFi Ap config (uid = 11529)

Please provide enough code so others can better understand or reproduce the problem. — Community, Jul 20 '22 at 12:18
