How to use NetworkOperatorHotspotAuthenticationTrigger in UWP

Question

I want develop an UWP app use to login to paid wifi. So I have refered to NetworkOperatorHotspotAuthenticationTrigger. When I register background task with that trigger, I was received "Access is denied".

Has anyone done it?

Answer 1

As it is declared in NetworkOperatorHotspotAuthenticationTrigger class :

Note An app can only instantiate this object and register for the hotspot authentication event after a WLAN profile has been provisioned that references this app to handle hotspot authentication.

So please make sure you have provisioned a WLAN profile with a corresponding configuration before using this class. If not, you will get Access is denied. error while registering.
