GoogleAccountCredential name is null despite calli

问题:

I've created an endpoint using a secured backend and have been using it since March on an app I'm building (source docs here). I recently installed the latest version to my Android 6.0 device and an odd error popped up (it works perfectly on 4.2.2 & 5.1).

The specific error is:

IllegalArgumentException: the name must not be empty: null 

Which I traced to an error with the credential, you can see the code below. On Android 6.0 account may be "[e-mail]" but the string 'test' turns out to be null!

Is there something specific about 6.0 that changed GoogleAccountCredential?

public static GoogleAccountCredential getCredential(Context ctx) {

    SharedPreferences prefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(ctx);
    String account = prefs.getString(UserProfileHelper.PREF_USER_ACCOUNT, "");
    GoogleAccountCredential credential = GoogleAccountCredential.usingAudience(ctx,
            "server:client_id:MY_ACCOUNT_NUMS.apps.googleusercontent.com")
            .setSelectedAccountName(account);


    String test = credential.getSelectedAccountName();
    return credential;
}

Yes with Android 6.0 Marshmallow, you will now need to request permissions at run time https://developer.android.com/training/permissions/index.html

In order to get those credentials you need the GET_ACCOUNTS permission in the CONTACTS group

You will have to request it in your activity/fragment and handle any UX pertaining to your app.
