Emulator: WARNING | *** No gRPC protection active, consider launching with the -grpc-use-jwt flag.***
By: Farida in Android Tutorials on 2023-04-03
The warning message No gRPC protection active, consider launching with the -grpc-use-jwt flag
indicates that the gRPC traffic between the emulator and the host machine is not secure. By default, gRPC traffic is not encrypted or authenticated, which can be a security risk.
To address this warning, you can launch the emulator with the -grpc-use-jwt
flag, which enables JSON Web Token (JWT) authentication for gRPC traffic. JWT is a widely used open standard for securely transmitting information between parties.
To launch the emulator with the -grpc-use-jwt
flag, follow these steps:
- Open the AVD Manager in Android Studio
- Click the pencil icon next to the emulator you want to launch
- Click the "Show Advanced Settings" button
- Scroll down to the "Command line options" section
- Add the following flag:
-grpc-use-jwt
- Click the "Finish" button to save the changes
After launching the emulator with this flag, you should see a message in the console output that confirms the gRPC traffic is now using JWT authentication.
