public static final String EXTRA_FORCE_CREATE

Added in API level 3

Used with SHOW_OR_CREATE_CONTACT to force creating a new contact if no matching contact found. Otherwise, default behavior is to prompt user with dialog before creating.

Type: BOOLEAN

Constant Value: "com.android.contacts.action.FORCE_CREATE"

public static final String SEARCH_SUGGESTION_CLICKED

Added in API level 1

This constant was deprecated in API level 5.

This is the intent that is fired when a search suggestion is clicked on.

Constant Value: "android.provider.Contacts.SEARCH_SUGGESTION_CLICKED"

public static final String SEARCH_SUGGESTION_CREATE_CONTACT_CLICKED

Added in API level 1

This constant was deprecated in API level 5.
see ContactsContract

This is the intent that is fired when a search suggestion for creating a contact is clicked on.

Constant Value: "android.provider.Contacts.SEARCH_SUGGESTION_CREATE_CONTACT_CLICKED"

public static final String SEARCH_SUGGESTION_DIAL_NUMBER_CLICKED

Added in API level 1

This constant was deprecated in API level 5.
see ContactsContract

This is the intent that is fired when a search suggestion for dialing a number is clicked on.

Constant Value: "android.provider.Contacts.SEARCH_SUGGESTION_DIAL_NUMBER_CLICKED"

public static final String SHOW_OR_CREATE_CONTACT

Added in API level 3

This constant was deprecated in API level 5.
see ContactsContract

Takes as input a data URI with a mailto: or tel: scheme. If a single contact exists with the given data it will be shown. If no contact exists, a dialog will ask the user if they want to create a new contact with the provided details filled in. If multiple contacts share the data the user will be prompted to pick which contact they want to view.

For mailto: URIs, the scheme specific portion must be a raw email address, such as one built using fromParts(String, String, String).

For tel: URIs, the scheme specific portion is compared to existing numbers using the standard caller ID lookup algorithm. The number must be properly encoded, for example using fromParts(String, String, String).

Any extras from the Contacts.Intents.Insert class will be passed along to the create activity if there are no contacts to show.

Passing true for the EXTRA_FORCE_CREATE extra will skip prompting the user when the contact doesn't exist.

Constant Value: "com.android.contacts.action.SHOW_OR_CREATE_CONTACT"
