cl.ability.1 Permission Changed for startAbilityByCall
Access Level
Public APIs
Reason for the Change
The startAbilityByCall API is a public API and does not match the ohos.permission.ABILITY_BACKGROUND_COMMUNICATION permission level. The permission level should be ohos.permission.DISTRIBUTED_DATASYNC.
Change Impact
The API calling permission is changed.
The APIs can be used only after the corresponding permission is configured. After the change, the API can be used only in migration scenarios. The corresponding system API will be provided to support more scenarios.
