How to beacon Dynamic data?

[helloble]

I am using Nrf Connect SDK version 2.3.0. I am using visual studio code for developing the beacon application. 

I want to beacon a dynamic variable value in the eddystone advertisement.. For this I defined variable as follows:

static uint8_t valuee[] = {0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x04, 0x05, 0x06, 0x07, 0x08, 0x09, 0x00} ;

Now, I am passing this variable "valuee" in the advertisement data using "BT_DATA_MANUFACTURER_DATA" macro.

Observation: I get the whole manufacturer data as "01020304050607080900" in the "manufacturer data field" in nrf connect for mobile app.

Expected output: "0x01" only. Followed by "0x02" only. then "0x03" only. 

The data in the array should be incremented and then advertised. How can I beacon dynamically?

Hello

Sounds like you're looking for the function to update advertising data?

Best regards,

Hi, I looked for an example for bt_le_adv_update_data but couldn't find one. Can you please provide an example code for this API? Thanks.

See for example in the HRS sample how bt_le_adv_start is used:

https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/samples/bluetooth/central_and_peripheral_hr/README.html

bt_le_adv_update_data takes the same inputs and updates the advertising data.
