nfc change url

Based on the code of Einar I was able to find the solution. It is necessary only to change a simple detail in the code to make it work. We need to pass the reference to the first element of the ndef_msg_buf. I left the code of a function that allows to change dynamically the nfc tag.

void change_nfc_tag()
{

    uint8_t ret_val, err_code;

    ret_val = nfcStopEmulation();
    if (ret_val != NFC_RETVAL_OK)
    {
        APP_ERROR_CHECK((uint32_t) ret_val);
    }
    
    
    /* The new URL */
    char url2[50];
    uint32_t len2 = sizeof(ndef_msg_buf2);
    memset(url2,'0',sizeof(url3));
    sprintf(url2,"nordicsemi.com"); //you can use format to construct the string. Take care with the size limit (50 in my case)

    /* Encode URI message into buffer */
    err_code = nfc_uri_msg_encode( NFC_URI_HTTP_WWW,
                                   (uint8_t *) url2,
                                   sizeof(url2),
                                   &ndef_msg_buf2[0],
                                   &len2);
                                   
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
    /** @snippet [NFC URI usage_1] */

    /* Set created message as the NFC payload */
    ret_val = nfcSetPayload( (char*)ndef_msg_buf2, len2);
    if (ret_val != NFC_RETVAL_OK)
    {
        APP_ERROR_CHECK((uint32_t) ret_val);
    }
    
    /* Start sensing NFC field */
    ret_val = nfcStartEmulation();
    if (ret_val != NFC_RETVAL_OK)
    {
        APP_ERROR_CHECK((uint32_t) ret_val);
    }
}

The last option you have suggested should work. I just verified it now by modifying the URI Message Example. You can try my modified main.c (quick and dirty).

The main thing, as suggested is to do the following steps:

nfcStopEmulation
nfc_uri_msg_encode
nfcSetPayload
nfcStartEmulation

Remember to use correct size of the new data in the calls to nfc_uri_msg_encode() and nfcSetPayload().

Hi Einar, thanks for your reply, the returned error code is 2

What is the error code is returned from your call to nfcSetPayload()?
