nRF Connect for Mobile: Export Advertiser Settings

[nexiduvise]

I have cloned a few beacons with nRF Connect and use the app to advertise these when testing our beacons and apps. It is (to my best knowledge) not possible however, to export these advertiser settings and transfer them to another phone (with the nRF Connect app installed).

Is this a feature planned for the future? Is there a way to transfer the settings manually from phone to phone?

Thank you for answers and best regards.

Hi

I'm sorry but we don't have such a feature in the nRFConnect app. We never discuss possible upcoming features here on the DevZone as we focus on our current features and products. Please contact the regional sales manager of your area to discuss upcoming features.

Best regards,

Simon

Thank you for your answer. Is there a way to extract the data from the app's storage location - are the advertiser settings e.g. stored in the filesystem of the app?

Sorry, I asked one of the app developers about this, and it seems we have a share function in the Android app after all, I just wasn't aware. Go to the "Configure GATT server on the left-hand menu, and configure how what services you'd like to use. Then, in the overflow options menu in the top right corner, there is a Share option as well as an Export to XML option. Either of these should be usable for transferring your GATT server setup to multiple devices. My bad!

Best regards,

Simon

This is not what I am looking for: I specifically want to export BLE Advertisements that were recorded using the "Advertiser" function in the nRF Connect App. BLE Advertisements are not configurable using the GATT server.

Okay, seems like I misunderstood your question in the initial post. Sorry about that!

You can only clone a device that you're connected to, so you can only clone what's on the GATT table. You may click on the raw button on the listed device that's on the scanner. Here you'll see the data that's advertised. If not, click "more" and you should see a history of advertisement packets and received and data.

Best regards,

Simon
