3## cl.ability.1 API Migration
4The **requestPermissionsFromUser** API of **UIAbilityContext** is migrated from the ability subsystem to the security subsystem.
5
6Previously, the permission popup was implemented based on **UIAbility**, which used the **startAbilityForResult** API of **UIAbilityContext** to return the permission authorization result to the caller. Therefore, **requestPermissionsFromUser** was temporarily placed in **UIAbilityContext**. The permission popup is now implemented based on **ServiceExtensionAbility**, which no longer requires **startAbilityForResult** of **UIAbilityContext**. Therefore, **requestPermissionsFromUser** is migrated to the security subsystem.
7
8You need to adapt your application based on the following information.
9
10 **Change Impact**
11
12JS APIs in API version 9 are affected. Your application needs to adapt these APIs so that it can properly implement features in the SDK environment of the new version.

24**Adaptation Guide**

26The following illustrates how **requestPermissionsFromUser** is called to show a permission popup.
27
28Stage model:
29
30```ts
31import abilityAccessCtrl from '@ohos.abilityAccessCtrl.d.ts';
32// onWindowStageCreate lifecycle of UIAbility.
33onWindowStageCreate() {
34    let AtManager = abilityAccessCtrl.createAtManager();
35    // requestPermissionsFromUser determines whether to display a popup based on the permission authorization status.
36    AtManager.requestPermissionsFromUser(this.context, ["ohos.permission.MANAGE_DISPOSED_APP_STATUS"]).then((data) => {
37        console.log("data type:" + typeof(data));
38        console.log("data:" + data);
39        console.log("data permissions:" + data.permissions);
40        console.log("data result:" + data.authResults);
41    }).catch((err) => {
42        console.error('Failed to start ability', err.code);
43    })
44}

49## cl.ability.2 Deletion of Deprecated APIs in API Version 9
50
51In the [Ability Exception Rectification](../OpenHarmony_3.2.8.3/changelogs-ability.md) document, some APIs in API version 9 have been marked as deprecated. According to API specifications of OpenHarmony, these APIs should be deleted.
52
53**Change Impact**
54
55The application developed based on earlier versions needs to use new APIs to replace the deleted ones. Otherwise, the application compilation will be affected.

57**Key API/Component Changes**

113**Adaptation Guide**
114
115As mentioned above, only several APIs have their names changed in terms of, for example, the registration callbacks (**registerAbilityLifecycleCallback**, **unregisterAbilityLifecycleCallback**, **registerEnvironmentCallback**, and **unregisterEnvironmentCallback**) and connection and disconnection **ServiceExtensionAbility** (**connectAbility**, **connectAbilityWithAccount**, and **disconnectAbility**). For such APIs, replace their names with those of their corresponding new APIs in the lifecycle callbacks.
116
117Most APIs are moved to the new namespace. Therefore, you can modify **import** for adaptation.
118
119For example, the original API uses **@ohos.application.Ability**:
120
121```js
122import Ability from '@ohos.application.Ability';
123```
124
125You can directly modify **import** to switch to the new namespace:
126
127```js
128import Ability from '@ohos.app.ability.UIAbility';
129```
130
131In addition, exception handling is needed. For details, see the API reference for the new APIs.
132
133## cl.ability.2 RestartFlag Attribute Names Changed and Unsupported Attribute Deleted in appRecovery
134
135In the **appRecovery** API, the enum names of **RestartFlag** are changed from **NO_RESTART** upon a specific fault to **RESTART** upon a specific fault.
136The **CPP_CRASH_NO_RESTART** enum is deleted.
137
138**Change Impact**
139
140If your application uses the **CPP_CRASH_NO_RESTART**, **JS_CRASH_NO_RESTART**, or **APP_FREEZE_NO_RESTART** attribute in versions earlier than 3.2.10.6, its behavior will change after an upgrade to 3.2.10.6.
