CallLog.Calls Call's logs Android

Question

Yesterday I was looking into a way to acquire the call log of an android device.

My idea was to acquire everything posible and then parse it and get only what I really needed.

Following the documentation See CallLog.Calls Documentation I saw the different fields there are but when trying to get them I got erros caused by differences in the documentation.

Finally I got it to work so I wanted to share the code in case anyone else needs it.

In the code I use JSON objects and save them in the Documents folder.

private void getCallLog(Context context) {
    @SuppressLint("MissingPermission") Cursor cursor = getApplicationContext().getContentResolver().query(CallLog.Calls.CONTENT_URI, null, null,
            null, CallLog.Calls.DATE + " DESC");
    if (cursor.getCount() > 0) {
        try{
            // Get the directory for the user's public pictures directory.
            final File path = Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOCUMENTS);
            // Make sure the path directory exists.
            if (!path.exists()) {
                // Make it, if it doesn't exit
                path.mkdirs();
            }
            final File file = new File(path, "call.txt");

            file.createNewFile();
            FileOutputStream fOut = new FileOutputStream(file);
            OutputStreamWriter myOutWriter = new OutputStreamWriter(fOut);


            while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
                try {
                    JSONObject object = new JSONObject();
