RE: Sending single Advertisement package without an interval

Hi,

This is not a common thing to do, so there is no dedicated API for doing this. The simplest is exactly what you described that you don't want to do: Start advertising with a long advertising interval, and stop advertising before the next advertising event. You do not need to do this with a delay (k_sleep()) in your code, though. A more elegant approach could be to use a delayed work queue item, so that you just post the work item to disable advertising sometime in the future.

Another approach could be to keep advertising regularly, but sync sensor readings to the advertising events by using radio notifications from MPSL.
