Hi,

Most of the examples run a static configuration of the advertising payload (and scan response payload as well if you are using scan response). In the nRF5 SDK you use the advertising module. You can read the advertising raw data after running ble_advertising_init:

err_code = ble_advertising_init(&m_advertising, &init);
APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);



// Write the raw adv and scan response data to local variables

uint8_t *adv_data_ptr = m_advertising.adv_data.adv_data.p_data;
uint16_t adv_data_len = m_advertising.adv_data.adv_data.len;
uint8_t *sr_data_ptr = m_advertising.adv_data.scan_rsp_data.p_data;
uint16_t sr_data_len = m_advertising.adv_data.scan_rsp_data.len;

Best regards,
