WorkManager now support long running workers with foreground notification: https://developer.android.com/topic/libraries/architecture/workmanager/advanced/long-running

And the Javadoc for ForegroundInfo clearly shows that I can specify the foregroundServiceType as I would for a standard foreground service:
https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/work/ForegroundInfo.html#ForegroundInfo(int,%20android.app.Notification,%20int)

Except when I do:

setForegroundAsync(
ForegroundInfo(
NOTIFICATION_ID,
syncNotificationManager.createSyncForegroundNotification(),
ServiceInfo.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_CONNECTED_DEVICE
or ServiceInfo.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_DATA_SYNC
)
)

from my Work I get this exception as soon as I try to run the work:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: foregroundServiceType 0x00000011 is not a subset of foregroundServiceType attribute 0x00000000 in service element of manifest file

The reason is that the work library still rely on the service manifest which has no foregroundServiceType attribute specified (0x00000000) and i'm requesting a specific foregroundServiceType (0x00000011).

<service
android:name="androidx.work.impl.foreground.SystemForegroundService"
android:directBootAware="false"
android:enabled="@bool/enable_system_foreground_service_default"
android:exported="false"
tools:targetApi="n" />

my current workaround is to just copy this in my manifest and add my foregroundServiceType.

I briefly tried and seems like it is working as I want but I'm not sure if this is ok. If this is the correct way it should be documented!

This is what I added to my manifest:

<service
android:name="androidx.work.impl.foreground.SystemForegroundService"
android:directBootAware="false"
android:enabled="@bool/enable_system_foreground_service_default"
android:exported="false"
android:foregroundServiceType="connectedDevice|dataSync"
tools:targetApi="n" />

I copied yours and added

android:foregroundServiceType="connectedDevice|dataSync"

which is what I needed.
