What is the corresponding XML for Context.getFilesDir()?
My current XML:
<paths xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<files-path name="internal" path="." />
</paths>
File creation:
File video = new File(getFilesDir(), "movie.mp4");
videoUri = FileProvider.getUriForFile(this, "my.package.name.provider", video);

To make FileProvider work follow these three steps: Define the FileProvider in your AndroidManifest file. Create an XML file that contains all paths that the FileProvider will share with other applications. Bundle a valid URI in the Intent and activate it.
FileProvider is a special subclass of ContentProvider that facilitates secure sharing of files associated with an app by creating a content:// Uri for a file instead of a file:/// Uri . A content URI allows you to grant read and write access using temporary access permissions.
That is the XML for serving files from getFilesDir() through FileProvider.
