Знаете кого-нибудь, кто может ответить? ошибка сбора в AndroidManifest.xml

AAPT: ошибка: атрибут android: requestLegacyExternalStorage не найден.

For ionic developers please refer to this answer to fix this issue: https://stackoverflow.com/a/65595715/10533962

Answer 1

(Material Files author here)

You need to compile against SDK 29 and maybe use the most recent build tools for aapt to know this attribute, because it's introduced in Android 10.

Answer 2

Make these changes in android\app\build.gradle :

compileSdkVersion 29  targetSdkVersion 29 

It will work.
