I suppose you could read the cache directly, though there is no guarantee that we won't change the format of that, btw I suppose services handled by the daemon should not be exposed to the Android side otherwise you may have conflicts so going with Profile interface is probably the way to go, but you will need to know the UUIDs that would be handled by Android. > Thanks for the feedback, we will revisit this and see if a redesign > based on your suggestion is possible. > > On Thu, Apr 9, 2020 at 11:05 AM Marcel Holtmann <marcel@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > Hi Sonny, > > > > > This defines the DBus API that we'll use with BlueZ to create, remove > > > and get service records. > > > --- > > > doc/adapter-api.txt | 46 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > > > doc/device-api.txt | 37 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > > > 2 files changed, 83 insertions(+) > > > > > > diff --git a/doc/adapter-api.txt b/doc/adapter-api.txt > > > index acae032d9..6e4c37fc9 100644 > > > --- a/doc/adapter-api.txt > > > +++ b/doc/adapter-api.txt > > > @@ -204,6 +204,52 @@ Methods void StartDiscovery() > > > org.bluez.Error.NotReady > > > org.bluez.Error.Failed > > > > > > + uint32 CreateServiceRecord(dict record) > > > + > > > + This method creates an entry with the local SDP server > > > + for this adapter for the specified record.

However what is your goal behind this API since even here we tried not to give raw SDP to the application.
