android.os.FileUriExposedException: file:///storage/emulated/0/image.jpg exposed beyond app through ClipData.Item.getUri()

Question

I am trying to open the phone's camera app using the app I am building. But I am getting the below error.

I have tried solving using the steps mentioned here : [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48990967/android-os-fileuriexposedexception-file-storage-emulated-0-pictures-picfolde][1]

But android:name="android.support.v4.content.FileProvider" is showing in red.

I tried to add the dependency : compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:27.0.2' but it is no longer supported.

My minSdkversion is 21 and targetSdkversion is 30.

Below is my code for opening camera:

private void capturePhoto() {

    Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
    String imageName = "image.jpg";
    mImageUri = Uri.fromFile(new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), imageName)); //result stored in  mImageUri
    cameraIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, mImageUri);
    startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, CAPTURE_IMAGE);


}

Error message:
