How do you copy something to the clipboard in a Windows 8.1 apps? I couldn't find any API to do this? You could do it in the old Silverlight apps, but there seems to be no way now.
Is there any workaround? I want share some strings from one app which could be used by any other app.

On your Android device, open an app in which you can input text, such as Mail or Messages. Tap any area where you can enter text to display the keyboard. Tap the clipboard icon in the toolbar above the keyboard and you should see the text you copied from Windows. Tap the text to insert it into the current area.
Open the Phone Link app on your PC, go to Settings > Features > Cross-device copy and paste, and make sure the toggle is On for Allow this app to access and transfer content I copy and paste between my phone and PC.
Open the file that you want to copy items from. Select the first item that you want to copy, and press CTRL+C. Continue copying items from the same or other files until you have collected all of the items that you want. The Office Clipboard can hold up to 24 items.
To get to your clipboard history at any time, press Windows logo key + V. From the clipboard history, you can paste and pin frequently used items by choosing an individual item from your clipboard menu.
There is no clipboard API for WP8.1 but it is available for Windows 8.1 apps. You need to either use a silverlight library which helps in setting content on clipboard or use share charm.
