Which permission does app needs to access gallery image and upload it to online?

My React Native 0.66 app needs to access the gallery images and upload it to online if a user decides to do so. There are 3 permissions in Android related to gallery image access and I am not clear about the exact usage of each permission:

PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.CAMERA; 
PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE;
PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE;

In android, does the app needs to request all 3 permissions one by one? Or just need to request PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.CAMERA and other 2 will come along by themself. Permissions in IOS are different and what is permission in IOS for access gallery image and upload? I plan to use react-native-permissions to manage the permission in both Android and IOS.

needs to access the gallery

I you dont need to write no need for the PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE; . I would also throw in the internet permissions.
