How to find SSID and password of the wifi hotpsot in android Oreo and above?

Is it possible to find SSID and password of wifi hotspot network defined in Settings -> Network -> Hotspot & Tethering or Settings -> Portable Hotspot (depending on a device) in android Oreo or above? I need system hotspot so LocalOnlyHotspot is not an option for me. I found the way to achieve this using reflection, but since version 8.0 it does not work. Also, here I found the way to turn on wifi hotspot programmatically How to turn on/off wifi hotspot programmatically in Android 8.0 (Oreo) (Vishal Sharma answer). But I could not find the way to find SSID and password using this method.

in Xamarin Android Inside the OnStarted method you can get the ssid and the password in this way:

you have to translate this c# code to java and it will work

public override void OnStarted(WifiManager.LocalOnlyHotspotReservation reservation)
    {
        base.OnStarted(reservation);
        Log.Debug("callBack", "Wifi Hotspot is on now");

        //here is your ssid
        var ssid = reservation.WifiConfiguration.Ssid;

        //here is your password
        var password= reservation.WifiConfiguration.PreSharedKey ;

        mainActivity.mReservation = reservation;
    }
