After I installed cordova-plugin-x-socialsharing plugin into my ionic cordova project I am getting the below error when executed build command:
> Task :app:processDebugMainManifest FAILED
D:\Project\@Codes Repos\Ionic6-cordova\platforms\android\app\src\main\AndroidManifest.xml Error:
Apps targeting Android 12 and higher are required to specify an explicit value for `android:exported` when the corresponding component has an intent filter defined. See https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element#exported for details.
See http://g.co/androidstudio/manifest-merger for more information about the manifest merger.
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugMainManifest'.
> Manifest merger failed : Apps targeting Android 12 and higher are required to specify an explicit value for `android:exported` when the corresponding component has an intent filter defined. See https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element#exported for details.
If I check my AndroidManifest.xml file, the activity tag already has the android:exported="true" property.

Do I have to add the android:exported somewhere else as well?
