Android\Intent: Send an email with image attachment
The email is being received on by the recipient, but without the attachment. Here is the code, any expert knows where did I go wrong?
Intent messageIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
String aEmailList[] = { "mymailgmail.com" };
messageIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, aEmailList);
messageIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
...
messageIntent.setType("image/jpeg");
File downloadedPic = new File(Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS), "MyApp.jpg");
messageIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.fromFile(downloadedPic));
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(messageIntent, getResources().getString(R.string.chooser_pic)));
I get:
file:// attachment path must point to file://sdcard. Ignoring attachment file://...file name is MyApp.jpg
I am not getting image, only above text message. Thanks.
Solution 1:
Try below code...
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
emailIntent.setType("application/image");
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[]{strEmail});
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT,"Test Subject");
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "From My App");
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file:///mnt/sdcard/Myimage.jpeg"));
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send mail..."));
Solution 2:
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, emailaddress);
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, message);
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
emailIntent.setType("application/image");
Uri uri = Uri.parse("file://" + filepath);
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uri);
startActivity(emailIntent);
