Check permission

[jaroslav009]

I'm getting 1 in AppleHealthKit.Constants.Permissions.HeartRate and it could be turned on or turned off it'll be always 1

testing in: IOS 16

here code: const permissions = { permissions: { read: [ AppleHealthKit.Constants.Permissions.BloodGlucose, AppleHealthKit.Constants.Permissions.HeartRate, ], write: [ AppleHealthKit.Constants.Permissions.BloodGlucose, AppleHealthKit.Constants.Permissions.HeartRate, ], }, } as HealthKitPermissions

appleHealthKit.getAuthStatus(permissions, (err, response) => { // when I turned off HeartRate but turned on BloodGlucose I'm getting such a response: // {"read": [2, 1], "write": [2]}} // If I turned on HeartRate response will be the same })

[jaroslav009]

is there anybody out there?

Looking at the getAuthStatus docs I see that it should be returning 2 if it is in fact turned on.

I'm seeing a similar issue where I have HeartRate, RestingHeartRate, SleepAnalysis and ActivitySummary all turned on, I verified by looking in the Apple Health app, yet my response looks like this:

results:  Object {
  "permissions": Object {
    "read": Array [
      1,
      1,
      1,
      1,
    ],
    "write": Array [],
  },
}

@jaroslav009 looks like this is just a bug in the lib: check this issue

tldr: "sharing authorized" (or expecting to see 2) for read permissions is confusing. "sharing authorized" means that the app has access to write the value for that type.

I also noticed that if you haven't requested write access, the write array won't return anything, which is annoying because the docs say it should return 0, 1, or 2... So, not sure if this function is actually helpful at all honestly

maybe is there any other option to check Heart rate? Because I can't check if it writes

I'm also getting this error, returns 1 regardless of whether the permission was allowed or not
