Hello, anyone here know if there is possibility to update the widget from Worker using updateAppWidgetState ? I have tried to use it in Worker, but the update function need to be used from GlanceWidget class or I have to pass the GlanceStateDefinition . So the question is, can I create the State Definition inside my worker?
If not, what is the way to update the widget from Worker ? I found that passing my state in constructor of MyGlanceWidget works, but then I am not using widgetState at all.

I may have found a solution:

val glanceId = GlanceAppWidgetManager(appContext).getGlanceIds(MyWidget::class.java).first()

MyWidget().apply {
    updateAppWidgetState(appContext, glanceId) { prefs ->
    // update the preferences, ex: prefs[myVariableKey] = true
    }
    // Manually trigger update of widget
    update(appContext, glanceId)
}
