USE_CREDENTIALS Not Available In New Android M API

While trying new permissions API, notably: ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale ActivityCompat.requestPermissions for permission:

Solution 1:

Neither. USE_CREDENTIALS was removed from the Android SDK in Android 6.0. Not only will you not find it in Manifest.permission in the docs, but if you try hunting for it on an Android 6.0 device (by enumerating all permissions via PackageManager), it does not seem to show up.
