How to pass a URI to an intent?

Question

I'm trying to pass a URI-Object to my Intent in order to use that URI in another activity.

How do I pass a URI?

private Uri imageUri; .... Intent intent = new Intent(this, GoogleActivity.class); intent.putExtra("imageUri", imageUri); startActivity(intent); this.finish(); 

How do I use now this URI in my other activity?

 imageUri = extras.getString("imageUri"); // I know thats wrong ... 

Answer 1

you can store the uri as string

intent.putExtra("imageUri", imageUri.toString()); 

and then just convert the string back to uri like this

Uri myUri = Uri.parse(extras.getString("imageUri"));
