How do I ask for Write Permission on API30?

Hello, I hope everything is alright with you all :orange_heart: Can you tell me how to ask for Write Permission for API30 and lower SDKs (Both) :v:

In your opinion, what is the difference between → API and → SDK? (*)

For new apps (to be published in the Play Store) the minimum → targetSdkVerion is 30.
On devices with Android 11 (API 30) WRITE permission is no longer available. Therefore, WRITE permission can only be requested on devices with Android < 11.

(*) Maybe someone from the IT experts can explain this better than I (as a musician).
See e.g. here.

just ask for write permission... you do not have to differentiate between the different Android versions...
