Attributes

Remarks

Called by a device/profile owner to set whether the screen capture is disabled. Disabling screen capture also prevents the content from being shown on display devices that do not have a secure video output. See android.view.Display#FLAG_SECURE for more details about secure surfaces and secure displays.

This method can be called on the DevicePolicyManager instance, returned by #getParentProfileInstance(ComponentName), where the calling device admin must be the profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile. If it is not, a security exception will be thrown.

If the caller is device owner or called on the parent instance by a profile owner of an organization-owned managed profile, then the restriction will be applied to all users.

From version android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#M disabling screen capture also blocks assist requests for all activities of the relevant user.
