I would like to share a few lines of text including line breaks ("\n"). Is it possible?

of course you can include
\n

in your text and provide thru Invocation Framework

[MSohm]

If you wish to start a BBM Chat sharing data, you can do it 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."
            }
        }

I read that query attributes are read-only

So - if data isn't static, I'm doing it his way:

InvokeActionItem {
            id: shareAction
            ActionBar.placement: ActionBarPlacement.OnBar
            query {
                mimeType: "image/png"
                invokeActionId: "bb.action.SHARE"
                invokeTargetId: "io.ods.bb10.card.upload.previewer"
            }
            onTriggered: {
                // trick: all properties from query are read-only
                // but we can use the data, which is read-write
                data = picker.selectedFile
            }
        }

Hi, if I want to share text to BBM group how to do that??

if I comment 

invokeTargetId: "sys.bbm.sharehandler"

there is a list and can choose for BBM group

But if I want directly to bbm group how to do that?

Is invokeTargetId must change to something??

Can I get the complete list for 

- invokeTargetId

- InvokeActionId

- mimeType

all value that posible for that properties

Thanks

Yes, it would be nice to know how to specifically invoke BB Group, Text message, Email, etc. RIM needs to have more complete documentation on this. They focus too much on sharing over BBM and neglect other built-in share methods.

[laurentC]

InvokeActionItem {
  id: invoke2
query {
  mimeType: "text/plain"
  invokeActionId: "bb.action.SHARE"
 }
 onTriggered: {
  data = [textConv.text]
 }

}

I think the code above should work ! The invocation framework should prompt the user with the right apps to share some text : BBM, text message, email,...

Unfortunatly when you run this code on the alpha device, only 3 options are available : BBM, BBM Group and NFC. I think (and I hope) it's because all apps are not installed...

I need to be able to specifically invoke SMS only. Is there a specific invokeTargetId for that?

sys.bbgroups.sharehandler  is the target id for BBM Groups.  Here are a couple of examples on how to share text or an image with a BBM group.  The user will be prompted to select the group to share with.

InvokeActionItem {
    title: "Share Text Over BBM Group"
    query {
        mimeType: "text/plain"
        invokeTargetId: "sys.bbgroups.sharehandler"
        invokeActionId: "bb.action.SHARE"
        data: "This is some text to share in a group."
    }
},
InvokeActionItem {
    title: "Share Image Over BBM Group"
    query {
        invokeTargetId: "sys.bbgroups.sharehandler"
        invokeActionId: "bb.action.SHARE"
        uri: "file:///accounts/1000/shared/photos/avatar.png"
    }
}

I'm running it from within my C++ code and don't get such a list to select the target. It shares only directly to BBM.

What have I to use to get the Dialog to share via BBM, SMS, Mail, Bluetooth, NFC, ... ?

[MSohm]

This code will bring up the dialog asking the user to choose the application they wish to use to share.

void BBMInvocation::shareImageBound()
{

	QString path = QDir::current().absoluteFilePath("shared/photos/avatar.png");

	m_pInvocation = Invocation::create(
			InvokeQuery::create().parent(this).mimeType("image/png").uri(
					QUrl::fromLocalFile(path)));

	QObject::connect(m_pInvocation, SIGNAL(armed()), this, SLOT(onArmed()));

	QObject::connect(m_pInvocation, SIGNAL(finished()), m_pInvocation,
			SLOT(deleteLater()));

}

void BBMInvocation::onArmed()
{
	m_pInvocation->trigger("bb.action.SHARE");
}
