I'm trying to send files (.log files) contained in a sdcard's folder using Intent. This is the code:
public void sendMail() {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE);
intent.setType("text/plain");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[] {"name.surname#gmail.com"});
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Log files");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "body");
//has to be an ArrayList
ArrayList<Uri> uris = new ArrayList<Uri>();
//convert from paths to Android friendly Parcelable Uri's
if(Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED.equals(Environment.getExternalStorageState())){
File root = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
File logfolder = new File(root, "log");
for (String file : logfolder.list()){
Uri u = Uri.parse(file);
uris.add(u);
}
intent.putParcelableArrayListExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uris);
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, new String("Send mail...")));
}
}
I choose Gmail from menu. Once Gmail is opend it displays a mail with recipient, subject, text, and attachment files correctly. The mail is sended with no error but i get a status bar notification that says "couldn't show attachment"! In fact recipient receives email correctly but it has no attachment.
I'm not able to figure out what is the problem. Why attachments are not sended? Please help me!!
Ok. i find the solution. Need to replace this:
for (String file : logfolder.list()){
Uri u = Uri.parse(file);
uris.add(u);
}
with this:
for (File file : logfolder.listFiles()){
Uri u = Uri.fromFile(file);
uris.add(u);
}

I want to attach an audio file to an email.
I am attaching it but cannot get that attachment on the receiver side. I don't know exactly which mimetype i have to use for this file.
I already tried setType("*/*"). But It still doesn't work for me. Is it even possible, and if so, then how can I?
I already found a lot here on SO as well as on Google, but still haven't gotten the right solution.
Intent email = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
email.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[] {});
email.setType("image/jpeg");
email.setType("audio/mpeg3");
email.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, TAG);
email.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, getResources().getText(R.string.Message));
Uri uri = Uri.parse("file:///android_asset/Male_Hard_2.mp3");
email.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uri);
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(email, "Choose an Email client :"));
the following link is helpful for me Attaching file in email.. the key part is
ArrayList<Uri> uris = new ArrayList<Uri>();
for (String file : filePaths)
{
File fileIn = new File(file);
Uri u = Uri.fromFile(fileIn);
uris.add(u);
}
intent.putParcelableArrayListExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uris); // intent is your email intent
You have to use:
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE)
.setType("audio/wav").setType("image/jpeg")
.setType("message/rfc822")
.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, emails)
.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject)
.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, strDetails)
.putExtra( android.content.Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uris)
.putExtra( android.content.Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, strAudioFilePath), "Send your email in:"));
In the above code, strAudioFilePath is the path of the Audio file.
I am trying to attach an image file and .txt file but only one file is attaching one is not attaching how to attach both the files.
if i use ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE then the app gets force close.
HERE IS MY CODE:
public static Intent getSendEmailIntent(Context context, String email,
String subject, String body, String fileName) {
final Intent emailIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
// Explicitly only use Gmail to send
emailIntent.setClassName("com.google.android.gm",
"com.google.android.gm.ComposeActivityGmail");
emailIntent.setType("*/*");
// Add the recipients
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_STREAM,
new String[] { email }
);
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, body);
// Add the attachment by specifying a reference to our custom
// ContentProvider
// and the specific file of interest
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM,Uri.parse("content://" + CachedFileProvider.AUTHORITY + "/"+ "anything.txt"));
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM,Uri.parse("content://" + CachedFileProvider.AUTHORITY + "/"+ "anything.jpg"));
return emailIntent;
}
If I put a .jpg file at last before return it is attaching. But if I put a .txt file at last then it is attaching. I want to attach both files pls help.
You can just use the code below and change file path's to your files.
ArrayList<Uri> imageUris = new ArrayList<Uri>();
imageUris.add(Uri.fromFile(new File("/mnt/sdcard/Medplann/IMG.jpg"))); // Add your image URIs here
imageUris.add(Uri.fromFile(new File("/mnt/sdcard/Medplann/Report.pdf")));
Intent shareIntent = new Intent();
shareIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE);
shareIntent.putParcelableArrayListExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, imageUris);
shareIntent.setType("image/*");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(shareIntent, "Share images to.."));

I have to following problem:
I want to send an email with an image attached to it.
I wrote this code:
File file = context.getDir("Files", context.MODE_WORLD_WRITEABLE);
File image = new File(file, "image.jpg");
Uri U = Uri.fromFile(image);
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
i.setType("image/jpg");
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, U);
context.startActivity(Intent.createChooser(i, "Email:"));
The email is sent but there is no attachment.
Does anybody have any idea why the email is sent without the attachment?
EDIT
I have found the answer to my question. Because the image was stored on the internal storage, it did not have enough rights so it could not be sent via email. I've moved my image to externalStorage and now it's working :)
Thanks,
Ark
String smsBody = "Body of the Content";
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
emailIntent.setType("image/*");
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL,new String[] { "" });
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT,"Subject of the Mail");
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, smsBody);
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM,Uri.fromFile("mnt/sdCard/SampleImageFloder/TestImage.png"));
emailIntent.setType("vnd.android.cursor.dir/email");
activity.startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent,"Email:"));
Try this one -
final Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE);
emailIntent.setType("plain/text");
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL,new String[]{"email"});
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "subject");
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,"Test");
//has to be an ArrayList
ArrayList<Uri> uris = new ArrayList<Uri>();
//convert from paths to Android friendly Parcelable Uri's
for (String file : filePaths)
{
File fileIn = new File(file);
Uri u = Uri.fromFile(fileIn);
uris.add(u);
}
emailIntent.putParcelableArrayListExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uris);
context.startActivity(emailIntent);

I am succeeded to attach and send single file using mail Intent. But I cant attach two files, I have used the below code from some of the websites.
final Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE);
emailIntent.setType("plain/text");
File file1 = getApplicationContext().getFileStreamPath("file1.csv");
File file2 = getApplicationContext().getFileStreamPath("file2.csv");
ArrayList<Uri> uris = new ArrayList<Uri>();
uris.add(Uri.fromFile(file1));
uris.add(Uri.fromFile(file2));
emailIntent.putParcelableArrayListExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uris);
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send mail..."));
I wrote the files in world_readable mode. But I dont know why I am not able to attach the files. Please give me your suggestion..
I've been working on Android program to send email with an attachment (image file, audio file, etc) using Intent with ACTION_SEND. The program is working when email has a single attachment. I used Intent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uri) to attach the designated image file to the mail and it is working fine, the mail can be delivered through the Gmail. However, when I tried to have multiple images attached to the same mail by calling Intent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uri) multiple times, it failed to work. None of the attachment show up in the email.
I searched the SDK documentation and Android programming user group about email attachment but cannot find any related info. However, I've discovered that there's another intent constant ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE (available since API level 4) which might meet my requirement. Based on SDK documentation, it simply states that it deliver multiple data to someone else, it works like ACTION_SEND, except the data is multiple. But I still could not figure out the correct usage for this command. I tried to declare intent with ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE, then call putExtra(EXTRA_STREAM, uri) multiple times to attach multiple images, but I got the same erroneous result just like before, none of the attachment show up in the email.
Has anyone tried with ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE and got it working with multiple email attachment?
Here is the code you need to create an emailIntent that contains multiple attachments.
public static void email(Context context, String emailTo, String emailCC,
String subject, String emailText, List<String> filePaths)
{
//need to "send multiple" to get more than one attachment
final Intent emailIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE);
emailIntent.setType("text/plain");
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL,
new String[]{emailTo});
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_CC,
new String[]{emailCC});
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, emailText);
//has to be an ArrayList
ArrayList<Uri> uris = new ArrayList<Uri>();
//convert from paths to Android friendly Parcelable Uri's
for (String file : filePaths)
{
File fileIn = new File(file);
Uri u = Uri.fromFile(fileIn);
uris.add(u);
}
emailIntent.putParcelableArrayListExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uris);
context.startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send mail..."));
}
ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE should be the action
and then emailIntent.setType("text/plain");
followed by:
ArrayList<Uri> uris = new ArrayList<Uri>();
String[] filePaths = new String[] {"sdcard/sample.png", "sdcard/sample.png"};
for (String file : filePaths)
{
File fileIn = new File(file);
Uri u = Uri.fromFile(fileIn);
uris.add(u);
}
emailIntent.putParcelableArrayListExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uris);
startActivity(emailIntent);
This works for me.
Although this is an old thread, but as it is shown on top on google searches i want to add a small hint to make it complete, hence I stumpled upon it.
It is necessary to make the attached files readable for the mail activity, otherwise they will not be attached. So you have to call somewhere
fileIn.setReadable(true, false)
Here I found great example http://www.blackmoonit.com/2010/02/filebrowser-send-receive-intents/
you must use
final Intent aIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE);
aIntent.putParcelableArrayListExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM,theUris);
aIntent.setType(theOverallMIMEtype);
For multiple attachments use PutParcelableArrayListExtra(Intent.ExtraStream, uris)where uris variable is a List<IParcelable>().
Here's an example:
var email = new Intent(Intent.ActionSendMultiple);
email.SetType("text/plain");
email.PutExtra(Intent.ExtraEmail, new string[]{emailTo});
email.PutExtra(Intent.ExtraCc, new string[]{emailCC});
var uris = new List<IParcelable>();
filePaths.ForEach(file=> {
var fileIn = new File(file);
var uri = Android.Net.Uri.FromFile(fileIn);
uris.Add(uri);
});
email.PutParcelableArrayListExtra(Intent.ExtraStream, uris);
context.StartActivity(Intent.CreateChooser(email, "Send mail..."));
Hope this helps ;)
