 				[b]Note:[/b] On macOS, sandboxed apps will save security-scoped bookmarks to retain access to the opened folders across multiple sessions. Use [method OS.get_granted_permissions] to get a list of saved bookmarks.
 				[b]Note:[/b] On Android, this method uses the Android Storage Access Framework (SAF).
 				The file picker returns a URI instead of a filesystem path. This URI can be passed directly to [FileAccess] to perform read/write operations.
-				When using [constant FILE_DIALOG_MODE_OPEN_DIR], it returns a tree URI that grants full access to the selected directory. File operations inside this directory can be performed by passing a path in the form [code]treeUri#relative/path/to/file[/code] to [FileAccess].
-				Tree URIs should be saved and reused; they remain valid across app restarts as long as the directory is not moved, renamed, or deleted.

+				[gdscript]
+				val uri = "content://com.android..." # URI of the selected file or folder.
+				val persist = true # Set to false to release the persistable permission.
