Although it says "type mismatch" but I ignored the error and started the application. it runs fine. it seems that it is a bug in the QML editor

Oh thanks, that works great!

Any idea why I can't send text from a property variant? Let's say I'm sending data to my QML page in the form "item.title"

I can display this text in a label like so,

Label{
     id: testLabel
     text: item.title
}

 if I set the data parameter in the InvokeActionItem to item.title I get nothing being sent to BBM. I've also tried converting it to a string using qsTr(item.title).

InvokeActionItem {
        id: invokeTextBBM
	query {
                mimeType: "text/plain"
                invokeTargetId: "sys.bbm.sharehandler"
                invokeActionId: "bb.action.SHARE"
                data: item.title
            }
        }
}

 Any thoughts?

Values in the query are not dynamic.  Use the onTriggered method to set values from runtime like this.

InvokeActionItem {
    title: "Share Text Over BBM"
    query {
        mimeType: "text/plain"
        invokeTargetId: "sys.bbm.sharehandler"
        invokeActionId: "bb.action.SHARE"
        data: "This is some text to share."
    }
    onTriggered: {
        data = "Some new text"
    }
}

This would cause "Some new text" to be sent.  You can specify a variable or control in its place.

Thanks! That works great for text data

...not having the same luck with pictures and the uri parameter. Is it possible to set that as well using the onTriggered method? I've tried using this:

InvokeActionItem {
	        title: "Share "
	        query {
		        mimeType: "image/jpg"
		        invokeTargetId: "sys.bbm.sharehandler"
		        uri: "file:///accounts/1000/shared/camera/IMG_00000006.jpg"
		        invokeActionId: "bb.action.SHARE"
	        }
	        onTriggered: {
	            uri = "file:///accounts/1000/shared/camera/IMG_00000003.jpg"
	        }
        }

 And it tries sending IMG_00000006.jpg

If i wanted to copy and image or text in application and share via bbm. is there a way to do it instaed of actual going to the particual item.

eg

i copy a some text in my app say a web from a web page

and then press bbm share text 

instead of the below meassage i want the copied item

data: "This is some text to share."

That looks like a bug to me.  I've logged the issue of the data element not updating here.

InvokeActionItem onTriggered doesn't update URI
