Issue in ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE

I am Detecting the SD card content for my app using ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE method in Android version 11. But the Android developer website adds one issue about this method, which is:

Access restrictions:
On Android 11 (API level 30) and higher, you cannot use the ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE intent action to request access to the following directories:

• The root directory of the internal storage volume.
• The root directory of each SD card volume that the device manufacturer considers to be reliable, regardless of whether the card is emulated or removable.
  • A reliable volume is one that an app can successfully access most of the time.

So I am confused about whether I use ACTION OPEN DOCUMENT TREE Method or not. Please give me some proper solution.

you only can't access to the root directory
you can apply access to all sub directories.
I suggest you to see this GitHub sample project that gets access to WhatsApp status directory although it's created by another app:
https://github.com/GauthamAsir/WhatsApp_Status_Saver/blob/master/app/src/main/java/a/gautham/statusdownloader/SplashActivity.java

you can create your own directory with ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE intent and get access to it.

    fun openDirectory(pickerInitialUri: Uri) {
    // Choose a directory using the system's file picker.
    val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE).apply {
        // Optionally, specify a URI for the directory that should be opened in
        // the system file picker when it loads.
        putExtra(DocumentsContract.EXTRA_INITIAL_URI, pickerInitialUri)
    }
startActivityForResult(intent, 1001)
}

All of these concepts is about user privacy
these articles have written by Google can give you idea :
