I am developing a VideoPlayer. I convert the URI of a launched intent to a string and it gives me content://media/external...... But I need to get the real path.
For example: /storage/extSdcard.....
How do I do this?
Here is my code if needed:
videoURI = getIntent().getData();
vv.setVideoURI(videoURI);
videoName = videoURI.toString();
tvTitle.setText(videoName);
Use this code .This is working for all android version.This is tested code.This support all devices

Get the real path bypassing URI to getRealPathFromURI function in your activity or fragment:
val fileRealPath = getRealPathFromURI(context!!, fileURI) ?: ""
You can use this code for selected video path.
Uri uri = data.getData();
String[] filePathColumn = {MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA};
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(uri, filePathColumn, null, null, null);
if(cursor.moveToFirst()){
int columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(filePathColumn[0]);
String yourRealPath = cursor.getString(columnIndex);
} else {
//boooo, cursor doesn't have rows ...
}
cursor.close();
you can refer the below link for your help.
Get filename and path from URI from mediastore
Latest with File provider (API 29):
please follow links :
Blogs: https://blogs.datanapps.com/media-picker
Github : https://github.com/datanapps/MediaPicker
I hope you will success.
Here's something I have used before:
public String getRealPathFromURI (Uri contentUri) {
String path = null;
String[] proj = { MediaStore.MediaColumns.DATA };
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(contentUri, proj, null, null, null);
if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
int column_index = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.MediaColumns.DATA);
path = cursor.getString(column_index);
}
cursor.close();
return path;
}
Most of the answers doesnt work for both gallery and camera images. this works for me.
public static String getPath(final Context context, final Uri uri) {
final boolean isKitKat = Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT;
Log.i("URI",uri+"");
String result = uri+"";
// DocumentProvider
// if (isKitKat && DocumentsContract.isDocumentUri(context, uri)) {
if (isKitKat && (result.contains("media.documents"))) {
String[] ary = result.split("/");
int length = ary.length;
String imgary = ary[length-1];
final String[] dat = imgary.split("%3A");
final String docId = dat[1];
final String type = dat[0];
Uri contentUri = null;
if ("image".equals(type)) {
contentUri = MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI;
} else if ("video".equals(type)) {
} else if ("audio".equals(type)) {
}
final String selection = "_id=?";
final String[] selectionArgs = new String[] {
dat[1]
};
return getDataColumn(context, contentUri, selection, selectionArgs);
} else if ("content".equalsIgnoreCase(uri.getScheme())) {
return getDataColumn(context, uri, null, null);
}
// File
else if ("file".equalsIgnoreCase(uri.getScheme())) {
return uri.getPath();
}
return null;
}
public static String getDataColumn(Context context, Uri uri, String selection, String[] selectionArgs) {
Cursor cursor = null;
final String column = "_data";
final String[] projection = {
column
};
try {
cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(uri, projection, selection, selectionArgs, null);
if (cursor != null && cursor.moveToFirst()) {
final int column_index = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(column);
return cursor.getString(column_index);
}
} finally {
if (cursor != null)
cursor.close();
}
return null;
}
Try This:
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE && resultCode == RESULT_OK && null != data) {
Uri selectedImage = data.getData();
String[] filePathColumn = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(selectedImage,filePathColumn, null, null, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
int columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(filePathColumn[0]);
String picturePath = cursor.getString(columnIndex);
cursor.close();
System.out.println("picturePath +"+ picturePath ); //path of sdcard
}
}
Here is how to get real path of the file from Uri via MediaStore::
private String getRealPathFromURI(Context context, Uri contentUri) {
Cursor cursor = null;
try {
String[] proj = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(contentUri, proj, null, null, null);
int column_index = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA);
cursor.moveToFirst();
return cursor.getString(column_index);
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e(TAG, "getRealPathFromURI Exception : " + e.toString());
return "";
} finally {
if (cursor != null) {
cursor.close();
}
}
}
here i get uri from on onActivityResult()
Uri selectedImageURI = data.getData();
String realPath = getRealPathFromURI(selectedImageURI);
1) In fragment you can use function like this way..
private String getRealPathFromURI(Uri contentURI) {
String filePath;
Cursor cursor = getActivity().getContentResolver().query(contentURI, null, null, null, null);
if (cursor == null) {
filePath = contentURI.getPath();
} else {
cursor.moveToFirst();
int idx = cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATA);
filePath = cursor.getString(idx);
cursor.close();
}
return filePath;
}
2) And activity you can use function like that.
private String getRealPathFromURI(Uri contentURI) {
String filePath;
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(contentURI, null, null, null, null);
if (cursor == null) {
filePath = contentURI.getPath();
} else {
cursor.moveToFirst();
int idx = cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATA);
filePath = cursor.getString(idx);
cursor.close();
}
return filePath;
}
Call it like
Uri selectedImageURI = data.getData(); //where data is intent return by onActivityResult
imageFile = new File(getRealPathFromURI(selectedImageURI));
and code for gettingPath..
private String getRealPathFromURI(Uri contentURI)
{
String result = null;
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(contentURI, null, null, null, null);
if (cursor == null)
{ // Source is Dropbox or other similar local file path
result = contentURI.getPath();
}
else
{
if(cursor.moveToFirst())
{
int idx = cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATA);
result = cursor.getString(idx);
}
cursor.close();
}
return result;
}
I was trying to solve this problem for 2/3 days, none of the possible solutions I found were helpful. I kept getting null cursors and similar errors.
My reason for needing the file path was to get Exif data so I could display images in the correct orientation. (See A final answer on how to get Exif data from URI)
I found this open source project -
https://github.com/ArthurHub/Android-Image-Cropper/blob/master/cropper/src/main/java/com/theartofdev/edmodo/cropper/BitmapUtils.java
There is a method that gets Exif data from an InputStream, this fixed my problem -
ExifInterface ei = null;
try
{
InputStream is = context.getContentResolver().openInputStream(uri);
if (is != null)
{
ei = new ExifInterface(is);
is.close();
}
}
catch (Exception ignored)
{
}
I know this isn't answering the question directly, but since I found this thread by trying to solve this problem, I think my answer may help others.
For Kotlin folks, This code works for me
fun getPath(context: Context, uri: Uri): String? {
val isKitKatorAbove = Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT
// DocumentProvider
if (isKitKatorAbove && DocumentsContract.isDocumentUri(context, uri)) {
// ExternalStorageProvider
if (isExternalStorageDocument(uri)) {
val docId = DocumentsContract.getDocumentId(uri)
val split = docId.split(":".toRegex()).toTypedArray()
val type = split[0]
if ("primary".equals(type, ignoreCase = true)) {
return Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString() + "/" + split[1]
}
} else if (isDownloadsDocument(uri)) {
val id = DocumentsContract.getDocumentId(uri)
val contentUri = ContentUris.withAppendedId(Uri.parse("content://downloads/public_downloads"), java.lang.Long.valueOf(id))
return getDataColumn(context, contentUri, null, null)
} else if (isMediaDocument(uri)) {

val split = docId.split(":".toRegex()).toTypedArray()
val type = split[0]
var contentUri: Uri? = null
if ("image" == type) {

if (cursor != null && cursor.moveToFirst()) {
val column_index: Int = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(column)
return cursor.getString(column_index)

} finally {

return null

You can add these methods in your utils class
you can use this function for get file from uri in new android and older
fun getFileFromUri(context: Context, uri: Uri?): File? {
uri ?: return null
uri.path ?: return null
var newUriString = uri.toString()
newUriString = newUriString.replace(
"content://com.android.providers.downloads.documents/",
"content://com.android.providers.media.documents/"
)
newUriString = newUriString.replace(
"/msf%3A", "/image%3A"
)
val newUri = Uri.parse(newUriString)
var realPath = String()
val databaseUri: Uri
val selection: String?
val selectionArgs: Array<String>?
if (newUri.path?.contains("/document/image:") == true) {
databaseUri = MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI
selection = "_id=?"
selectionArgs = arrayOf(DocumentsContract.getDocumentId(newUri).split(":")[1])
} else {
databaseUri = newUri
selection = null
selectionArgs = null
}
try {
val column = "_data"
val projection = arrayOf(column)
val cursor = context.contentResolver.query(
databaseUri,
projection,
selection,
selectionArgs,
null
)
cursor?.let {
if (it.moveToFirst()) {
val columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(column)
realPath = cursor.getString(columnIndex)
}
cursor.close()
}
} catch (e: Exception) {
Log.i("GetFileUri Exception:", e.message ?: "")
}
val path = realPath.ifEmpty {
when {
newUri.path?.contains("/document/raw:") == true -> newUri.path?.replace(
"/document/raw:",
""
)
newUri.path?.contains("/document/primary:") == true -> newUri.path?.replace(
"/document/primary:",
"/storage/emulated/0/"
)
else -> return null
}
}
return if (path.isNullOrEmpty()) null else File(path)
}
I found more elegance solution:
Uri file_uri = Uri.parse(videoURI); // parse to Uri if your videoURI is string
String real_path = file_uri.getPath(); // will return real file path

I'm getting issue for same in Android 10,
as my file URI consist msf: format.
Most solutions said to copy files into cache path & then use that path.
Thus, here is solution to get path, without copying it.
if (isAndroid10 && id.startsWith("msf:")) {
final String[] split = id.split(":");
final String selection = "_id=?";
final String[] selectionArgs = new String[] { split[1] };
return getDataColumn(context, MediaStore.Downloads.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, selection, selectionArgs);
}
Try to implement this.
MediaStore.Downloads.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI -- ONLY PRESENT FROM ANDROID 10

To select an audio file using Intent , I am using this function :-
fun selectAudioFromStorage() {
val pictureActionIntent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT, null)
pictureActionIntent.type = "audio/*"
pictureActionIntent.putExtra("return-data", true)
startActivityForResult(pictureActionIntent, ResultConstants.RC_SELECT_AUDIO)
}
onActivityResult of the fragment class provides the Uri of the selected audio file like this :
content://com.android.providers.downloads.documents/document/raw%3A%2Fstorage%2Femulated%2F0%2FDownload%2Forganfinale.mp3
On Android (Lollipop),To convert the uri to real path is working fine using cursor but for Oreo devices I am not able to get the real path from the Uri of this audio.
I usually use this Class for getting the path,, You can have a look at this which works for almost all version

if (fileName.isNotBlank()) {
val destFile =
createOutputFile(context, contentUri, fileNamePrefix, defaultFileExtension)
copyUriToFile(context, contentUri, destFile)
return destFile.absolutePath
}
return null

else MediaFileHelper.getFileExtension(uriPath)
do {

val mFileName = "$fileNamePrefix${StringHelper.getUniqueId()}$count$fileExtension"

As file paths are not usable in API 29 and above for public files I suggest that you don't try to use them but use a Java FileDescriptor instead.
As per https://developer.android.com/training/data-storage#scoped-storage
And more specifically https://developer.android.com/training/data-storage/shared/media#open-file-descriptor
A lot of API's allow you to provide a FileDescriptor instead of a path.
e.g. Use
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/media/MediaPlayer.html#setDataSource(java.io.FileDescriptor)
instead of
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/media/MediaPlayer.html#setDataSource(java.lang.String)
To get a fileDescriptor from a URI do the following (in Java)
ParcelFileDescriptor pfd =
this.getContentResolver().
openFileDescriptor(URI, "r");
FileDescriptor fileDescriptor = pfd.getFileDescriptor();
I was using below code to get a file path from Uri.

How optimal is this solution?And is there any better way of handling this?
I am noob in android, my question is how to get real path of file in android ?
I am using intent to choose file, here is the codes:
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setType("*/*");
intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
startActivityForResult(intent, PICKFILE_RESULT_CODE);
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
//super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
switch(requestCode){
case PICKFILE_RESULT_CODE:
if(resultCode == RESULT_OK){
String path = data.getData().getPath();
Log.d("File Location", path);
break;
}
}
but the result is like "/external/images/media/1387"
I expect is like /sdcard/folder/file.ext

Use This Method To Get RealPath

if (cursor == null) { // Source is Dropbox or other similar local file path

Close Cursor At End For Better Purformance
I want to sen file to server and I need to get real path from uri.
My code:
public String getPathFromURI(Context context, Uri contentUri) {
if ( contentUri.toString().indexOf("file:///") > -1 ){
return contentUri.getPath();
}
Cursor cursor = null;
try {
String[] proj = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(contentUri, proj, null, null, null);
int column_index = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA);
cursor.moveToFirst();
return cursor.getString(column_index);
}finally {
if (cursor != null) {
cursor.close();
}
}
}
And onActivityResult:
...
imageName = data.getData();
imagePath = getPathFromURI(getBaseContext(),imageName);
Picasso.with(getBaseContext()).load(imageName).into(imageView);
...
How it's possible that image shows in ImageView , but imagePath is ALWAYS null ? :) Thanks
EDIT:
How i send image to server
HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpContext localContext = new BasicHttpContext();
HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost([URL TO A SERVER]);
MultipartEntity entity = new MultipartEntity(HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE);
entity.addPart("uploaded_file_1", new FileBody(new File( imagePath )));
httpPost.setEntity(entity);

This will find the real path in every case even for kitkat (that was the problem... kitkat)
From android 10 you must use app-specific storage for your files. In case you want file from external storage and do something to it like you want to upload it to the server, you need to get the file and make a copy of it to the app-specific storage.
Here is what you can use, assuming you already have the uri of the selected file.
val parcelFileDescriptor =
contentResolver.openFileDescriptor(selectedImageUri!!, "r", null) ?: return
val inputStream = FileInputStream(parcelFileDescriptor.fileDescriptor)
val file = File(cacheDir, contentResolver.getFileName(selectedImageUri!!))
val outputStream = FileOutputStream(file)
inputStream.copyTo(outputStream)
And the function to get the file name from the Uri is
fun ContentResolver.getFileName(fileUri: Uri): String {
var name = ""
val returnCursor = this.query(fileUri, null, null, null, null)
if (returnCursor != null) {
val nameIndex = returnCursor.getColumnIndex(OpenableColumns.DISPLAY_NAME)
returnCursor.moveToFirst()
name = returnCursor.getString(nameIndex)
returnCursor.close()
}
return name
}
Now you can use file.path and it will work.
If you don't want to do like this then for android 10 there is also a temporary solution that is
android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true"
You can add this to your AndroidManifest.xml inside application tag.

I couldn't get the path for a Marshmallow phone sharing media from Google Photos to my app. I'll try to explain myself why this is probably happening.
I didn't find any official documentation to base my thought, but I'll share them with you to see if with some collaboration from different minds we reach to a solution.
My theory is that Google Photos does not have the media files physically in the phone, they are probably thumbnails or online. So when you share some pics, they are downloaded temporary and probably stored in the Internal Storage of the App so you can't access it (to the path).
The only workaround I found to get the path of the file is copying it to my app internal storage. I don't like it but everything I tried didn't work for me.
Thanks Michal Heneš and Sam .

I tried a solution (see below) that works fine, except in Android 4.4 the call to startActivityForResult() brings up an activity titled "Open from", which has "Recent", "Images", "Downloads" as well as several apps to pick from. When I choose "Images" and try to resolve the returned content URI (using the code below), the call to cursor.getString() returns null. If I choose the exact same file using the Gallery app, cursor.getString() returns a file path. I've only tested this in API levels 16 and 19. Everything works as expected in 16. As far as 19 goes, I have to choose the Gallery or other app or it doesn't work.

Convert content:// URI to actual path in Android 4.4
There is no reliable way to do this on any Android version. A content:// Uri does not have to represent a file on the filesystem, let alone one that you are able to access.
Android 4.4's changes to offer the storage framework simply increases the frequency with which you will encounter content:// Uri values.
If you get a content:// Uri, please consume it using a ContentResolver and methods like openInputStream() and openOutputStream().
I have been facing this problem too, but in my case, what I wanted to do was to specify a concrete Uri to the Gallery so I can use crop later. Looks like in the new Document Browser of KitKat we can't do that anymore unless you choose galery in the navigation drawer, and, like you said, open the image or file directly from there.
In the Uri case, you can still retrieve the path when opening fromt he Document Browser.
Intent dataIntent= new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
dataIntent.setType("image/*"); //Or whatever type you need
And then in onActivityResult:
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == ACTIVITY_SELECT_IMAGE && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
myUri = data.getData();
String path = myUri.getPath();
openPath(myUri);
}
}
If you need then to open a file with that path, you just have yo use a Content Resolver:
public void openPath(Uri uri){
InputStream is = null;
try {
is = getContentResolver().openInputStream(uri);
//Convert your stream to data here
is.close();
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
It is introduced in a Google API. You can try this:
private Bitmap getBitmapFromUri(Uri uri) throws IOException {
ParcelFileDescriptor parcelFileDescriptor =
getContentResolver().openFileDescriptor(uri, "r");
FileDescriptor fileDescriptor = parcelFileDescriptor.getFileDescriptor();
Bitmap image = BitmapFactory.decodeFileDescriptor(fileDescriptor);
parcelFileDescriptor.close();
return image;
}
If you really need a file path. First, get the data using ContentResolver. Then, you can save the data to a temp file and use that path.
(I had to use a library with File object in a function parameter.)
Thanks to #FireBear, I modified answer now one will get path of media file
String filePath=saveBitmap(activity,getBitmapFromUri(imageUri),"tmpFile").getPath();
private Bitmap getBitmapFromUri(Context context, Uri uri) throws IOException {
ParcelFileDescriptor parcelFileDescriptor =
context.getContentResolver().openFileDescriptor(uri, "r");
FileDescriptor fileDescriptor = parcelFileDescriptor.getFileDescriptor();
Bitmap image = BitmapFactory.decodeFileDescriptor(fileDescriptor);
parcelFileDescriptor.close();
return image;
}
private File saveBitmap(Context context, Bitmap bitmap, String name) {
File filesDir = context.getFilesDir();
File imageFile = new File(filesDir, name + ".jpg");
OutputStream os;
try {
os = new FileOutputStream(imageFile);
bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, os);
os.flush();
os.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
//Log.e(getClass().getSimpleName(), "Error writing bitmap", e);
}
return imageFile;
}
I know it does not answer the question itself, but as #CommonsWare sad, SAF was not meant to use this way.
Maybe an option for this is creating a copy of the file on the app's external files dir, use it and then delete it.
public File createFileCopy(Context context, DocumentFile file) {
if (file == null || !file.exists() || file.getName() == null) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("The file must no be null, and must exist, and must have a name.");
}
File fileCopy = new File(context.getExternalFilesDir(null).getAbsolutePath(), file.getName());
try {
android.os.FileUtils.copy(openFileInputStream(file), new FileOutputStream(fileCopy));
return fileCopy;
} catch (Exception e) {
// do whateveer you want with this exceeption
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
I tried in a different way. each answer on stackoverflow was having some kind of issue, either it leads to some kind of crash or dosen't works out. the first answer above won't work for finding URI from whatsApp media.
below solution is all rounder solution worked for me. I have copied complete PathUtils class here. use getpath() function for the path.
public class PathUtils {
private static final int BUFFER_SIZE = 1024 * 2;
public static String getPath(Context context, Uri contentUri) {
String fileName = getFileName(contentUri);
if (!TextUtils.isEmpty(fileName)) {
File copyFile = new File(context.getCacheDir() + fileName+contentUri.getScheme());
copy(context, contentUri, copyFile);
return copyFile.getAbsolutePath();
}
return null;
}
public static String getFileName(Uri uri) {
if (uri == null) return null;
String fileName = null;
String path = uri.getPath();
int cut = path.lastIndexOf('/');
if (cut != -1) {
fileName = path.substring(cut + 1);
}
return fileName;
}
public static void copy(Context context, Uri srcUri, File dstFile) {
try {
InputStream inputStream = context.getContentResolver().openInputStream(srcUri);
if (inputStream == null) return;
OutputStream outputStream = new FileOutputStream(dstFile);
copyMain(inputStream, outputStream);
inputStream.close();
outputStream.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static int copyMain(InputStream input, OutputStream output) throws Exception, IOException {
byte[] buffer = new byte[BUFFER_SIZE];
BufferedInputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(input, BUFFER_SIZE);
BufferedOutputStream out = new BufferedOutputStream(output, BUFFER_SIZE);
int count = 0, n = 0;
try {
while ((n = in.read(buffer, 0, BUFFER_SIZE)) != -1) {
out.write(buffer, 0, n);
count += n;
}
out.flush();
} finally {
try {
out.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e(e.getMessage(), e.toString());
}
try {
in.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e(e.getMessage(), e.toString());
}
}
return count;
}
}
