Attributes

Remarks

Installs the given certificate as a user CA.

Inserted user CAs aren't automatically trusted by apps in Android 7.0 (API level 24) and higher. App developers can change the default behavior for an app by adding a Security Configuration File to the app manifest file.

The caller must be a profile or device owner on that user, or a delegate package given the #DELEGATION_CERT_INSTALL scope via #setDelegatedScopes; otherwise a security exception will be thrown.
