a `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/service/credentials/BeginCreateCredentialRequest` if the caller of the API does not wish to propagate
this information to a credential provider.

<br />

| Returns ||
|---|---|
| `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/service/credentials/CallingAppInfo` | <br /> |
