Adding permissions to the Android Manifest with Apportable

Question

I'm trying to follow the Store Kit documentation to make in-app purchases over the apportabled -android version of my app. Most of the steps are pretty simple and I've managed to upload the apk on google developer console.

However, I'm realizing now, when trying to add the in-app products over the developer console, that the generated AndroidManifest.xml does not have the BILLING permission.

My question is, how do I add a permission to the manifest. I can see two potentially related properties in configuration.json (APPLICATION_MANIFEST_EXTRAS and MANIFEST_EXTRAS), but I have no idea how to format the options or if its even related.

Any help would be appreaciated, thanks

Common AndroidManifest.xml features are set up by modifying the features section in configuration.json.

To dive deeper into how the AndroidManifest.xml is created, see .apportable/SDK/site_scons/android/mainifest.py
