Read data advertised by the beacon

[arjun]

Dear Nordic,

I need to read the data being advertised by a particular beacon and save it to another variable. Is there a way to do it..?

Sure indeed, you will get the data in structure upon receiving of BLE_GAP_EVT_ADV_REPORT event. See message sequence chart here and structure description here on Nordic Infocenter. Unfortunately you had provided basically zero context of your question (like which nRF5x chip you have, what is target board, what BLE stack you run/want to run, what FW project example you start from etc.) so it's hard to help you more;)

Nice, so you have some base firmware implementing GAP Observer/Central role which is capable of scanning and receives BLE_GAP_EVT_ADV_REPORT events?
