Action

open class Action : Parcelable
kotlin.Any
   ↳ android.app.Notification.Action

Structure to encapsulate a named action that can be shown as part of this notification. It must include an icon, a label, and a PendingIntent to be fired when the action is selected by the user.

Apps should use Notification.Builder.addAction(int, CharSequence, PendingIntent) or Notification.Builder.addAction(Notification.Action) to attach actions.

As of Android android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#S, apps targeting API level android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#S or higher won't be able to start activities while processing broadcast receivers or services in response to notification action clicks. To launch an activity in those cases, provide a PendingIntent for the activity itself.

Public constructors

Action

Added in API level 19
Action(
    icon: Int, 
    title: CharSequence!, 
    intent: PendingIntent?)

Deprecated: Use android.app.Notification.Action.Builder.

Parameters
intent PendingIntent?: This value may be null.

Public methods

clone

Added in API level 19
open fun clone(): Notification.Action!
Return
Notification.Action! a clone of this instance.
Exceptions
java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException if the object's class does not support the Cloneable interface. Subclasses that override the clone method can also throw this exception to indicate that an instance cannot be cloned.

describeContents

Added in API level 19
open fun describeContents(): Int
Return
Int a bitmask indicating the set of special object types marshaled by this Parcelable object instance. Value is either 0 or android.os.Parcelable#CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR

getAllowGeneratedReplies

Added in API level 24
open fun getAllowGeneratedReplies(): Boolean

Return whether the platform should automatically generate possible replies for this Action

getDataOnlyRemoteInputs

Added in API level 26
open fun getDataOnlyRemoteInputs(): Array<RemoteInput!>!

Get the list of inputs to be collected from the user that ONLY accept data when this action is sent. These remote inputs are guaranteed to return true on a call to RemoteInput.isDataOnly.

Returns null if there are no data-only remote inputs.

This method exists so that legacy RemoteInput collectors that pre-date the addition of non-textual RemoteInputs do not access these remote inputs.

getExtras

Added in API level 20
open fun getExtras(): Bundle!

Get additional metadata carried around with this Action.

getIcon

Added in API level 23
open fun getIcon(): Icon!

Return an icon representing the action.

getRemoteInputs

Added in API level 20
open fun getRemoteInputs(): Array<RemoteInput!>!

Get the list of inputs to be collected from the user when this action is sent. May return null if no remote inputs were added. Only returns inputs which accept a text input. For inputs which only accept data use getDataOnlyRemoteInputs.

getSemanticAction

Added in API level 28
open fun getSemanticAction(): Int

Returns the SemanticAction associated with this Action. A SemanticAction denotes what an Action's PendingIntent will do (eg. reply, mark as read, delete, etc).

Return
Int Value is android.app.Notification.Action#SEMANTIC_ACTION_NONE, android.app.Notification.Action#SEMANTIC_ACTION_REPLY, android.app.Notification.Action#SEMANTIC_ACTION_MARK_AS_READ, android.app.Notification.Action#SEMANTIC_ACTION_MARK_AS_UNREAD, android.app.Notification.Action#SEMANTIC_ACTION_DELETE, android.app.Notification.Action#SEMANTIC_ACTION_ARCHIVE, android.app.Notification.Action#SEMANTIC_ACTION_MUTE, android.app.Notification.Action#SEMANTIC_ACTION_UNMUTE, android.app.Notification.Action#SEMANTIC_ACTION_THUMBS_UP, android.app.Notification.Action#SEMANTIC_ACTION_THUMBS_DOWN, android.app.Notification.Action#SEMANTIC_ACTION_CALL, android.app.Notification.Action.SEMANTIC_ACTION_MARK_CONVERSATION_AS_PRIORITY, or android.app.Notification.Action.SEMANTIC_ACTION_CONVERSATION_IS_PHISHING

isAuthenticationRequired

Added in API level 31
open fun isAuthenticationRequired(): Boolean

Returns whether the OS should only send this action's PendingIntent on an unlocked device.

If the device is locked when the action is invoked, the OS should show the keyguard and require successful authentication before invoking the intent.

isContextual

Added in API level 29

Returns whether this is a contextual Action, i.e. whether the action is dependent on the notification message body. An example of a contextual action could be an action opening a map application with an address shown in the notification.

writeToParcel

Added in API level 19
open fun writeToParcel(
    out: Parcel, 
    flags: Int
): Unit
Parameters
dest The Parcel in which the object should be written. This value cannot be null.
