Include attachment to mail from Activity Starter

Discuss
#1

Hello,

I am trying to include an attachment (that is on the device) to an email using activity starter.

is this possible? If so can someone help me with the syntax please? I have tried file:/// file:// and /path . with no luck. I will add there is a SPACE in the path, however other Activity Starter functions did not have a problem with it.

Tried and failed already which is why I am going to activity starter.

I have tried three different extensions and they all fail being installed with a bug like this. So I am in workaround mode :slight_smile:

faultData = com.google.gwt.core.client.JavaScriptException: (TypeError) : Cannot read property ‘highlightCaption’ of undefined
projectId = 6238411098685440

no, the activity starter solution is not able to add attachments
but generally there are the following solutions App Inventor Tutorials and Examples: Send Mail | Pura Vida Apps

Thanks Taifun,

I had gone through those options, and then balanced out and went with the sharing component.

Dont let perfection get in the way of progress :slight_smile:

Thanks for your support
