+ * <p>
+ * API for obtaining a pre-authorized version of a URI that normally requires special
+ * permission (beyond READ_CONTACTS) to read. The caller obtaining the pre-authorized URI
+ * must already have the necessary permissions to access the URI; otherwise a
+ * {@link SecurityException} will be thrown.

+ * The authorized URI returned in the bundle contains an expiring token that allows the

+ * This API does not access disk, and should be safe to invoke from the UI thread.
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * Example usage:

+ * Uri profileUri = ContactsContract.Profile.CONTENT_VCARD_URI;
+ * Bundle uriBundle = new Bundle();
+ * uriBundle.putParcelable(ContactsContract.Authorization.KEY_URI_TO_AUTHORIZE, uri);
