Storage write exception with ScanResult objet

According to the documentation the storage module allows the saving of a ScanResult object.

This works fine on a F5X+ with CIQ 3.2.3 but I get an exception on a Edge 830 with CIQ 3.1.6: UnexpectedTypeException: Expected null/Number/Float/String/Array/Boolean/Dictionary/Long/Double/Char/ByteArray, given Object

Did I miss something or is this normal ? As the Edge 830 & CIQ 3.1 support the BLE module, I would assume that saving a ScanResult would also be supported.

This is a new feature available on devices that are running the 3.2 VM or greater. With the 830, it's got 3.1. What you need to do is use something like Sys.getDeviceSettings().mokkeyVersion and only persist scan results if it's 3.2 or greater.

If you want to test this on actual 830 device, there is beta which supports CIQ 3.2.0

Thanks, I'll take that into account in my code. The way the documentation is done, led me to believe that the feature came already with 3.1...

The README file in the SDK has the changelog for every SDK release. In the 3.2.1 changelog there is:

Add support for persisting BLE scan result objects to application storage.

This is kind of an odd one as when it was added the API itself didn't really change (no new call), but in the doc for Application.Storage setValue()etValue(), scan result should probably have a note that it's only for 3.2 or above.

I went ahead and added the requested version detail to the documentation. The docs should be updated with the next SDK release.
