Native Development

I know I am calling the card correctly, I am able to load and send an email.  I am not able to get the "preloaded" data to load into the card.  I am using the JSON from the  Email Card page.  I am pretty sure I am loading the JSON properly as I have printed the data to the console.

	InvokeManager invokeManager;
	InvokeRequest request;
	request.setTarget("sys.pim.uib.email.hybridcomposer");
	request.setAction("bb.action.COMPOSE");
	request.setMimeType("message/rfc822");

	JsonDataAccess jda;
	QMap<QString, QVariant> prefilledData;
	QVariant jsonData = jda.load(QDir::currentPath() + "/app/native/assets/mailProperties.json");
	prefilledData = jsonData.toMap();
	request.setMetadata(prefilledData);

Any ideas where I have gone wrong?

Same issue here.

I wasn't sure if we were supposed to send the json to the metadata, data or uri fields.  I have tried all three to no avail.

My json:

{
"subject" : "Screenshot",
"body" : "Screenshot attached.",
"attachment" : "file:///shared/misc/screenshot.png"
}

invocation:

navigator_invoke_invocation_t *iRequest = NULL;
navigator_invoke_invocation_create(&iRequest);
navigator_invoke_invocation_set_action(iRequest, "bb.action.COMPOSE");
navigator_invoke_invocation_set_target(iRequest,"sys.pim.uib.email.hybridcomposer");
navigator_invoke_invocation_set_data(iRequest, url.c_str(), url.length());
navigator_invoke_invocation_set_type(iRequest, "message/rfc822");
navigator_invoke_invocation_send(iRequest);
navigator_invoke_invocation_destroy(iRequest);

All this does is bring up a blank composer window.

I need this to work properly with optional inclusion of all the possible permutations.  I see that others get around this with a mailto uri or a Share invocation, but I need the ability to populate email fields and add an attachment.

Is this a known issue with the current release of BB10, or am I doing something wrong?

I wasn't able to make this work. A workaround is to use URL:

Maybe I misread the comments but this doesn't allow for attachments, which is my biggest issue...

[mcmordie]

That was also my understanding.  This is a blocking issue for the release of our product (or will be when the product is ready for submission in a few weeks).

I currently have:

	InvokeManager invokeManager;
	InvokeRequest request;
	request.setTarget("sys.pim.uib.email.hybridcomposer");
	request.setAction("bb.action.SHARE");
	QString fileURI = ("file://" + newFileName);
	request.setUri(fileURI);
	request.setMimeType("message/rfc822");

 but does not allow me to prepopulate the subject line as I'd like to

[sunshining]

same issu, the most important thing: add attachment,
do you have any solutions,now ?

[sunshining]

    request.setTarget("sys.pim.uib.email.hybridcomposer");
    request.setAction("bb.action.SHARE");
    request.setMimeType("message/rfc822");

    QString fileURI = ("file://assets/images/light.png");
    request.setUri(fileURI);

still can not add a attachment, anywhere wrong?

[aklowther]

my code, post above @sunshining adds attachment to email card, but nothing else. No subject, no to:/cc:/bcc:, just attachment

[aklowther]

@sunshining you need the full file path, use QDir::homePath() to start
