Hello,
I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong on this question. Here is the code I'm using:
videoIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, uri);
I get an error about permissions when doing this :s

Are you having a problem with this code? It is correct and should be passing the challenge.

14,780 PointsGreat to hear that you're trying to help :)
Please can I kindly ask though that you don't just post the answer to Code Challenges without explanation - it doesn't assist with the learning of other students.
Typically, it helps just to post a hint to the student but if needed - provide the full answer and make sure to explain it.
Sorry if this sounds strict - I don't mean it to come out that way!
