The value stored in this column is automatically calculated when `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/provider/MediaStore.MediaColumns#IS_PENDING:kotlin.String` or `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/provider/MediaStore.MediaColumns#IS_TRASHED:kotlin.String` is changed. The default pending expiration is typically 7 days, and the default trashed expiration is typically 30 days. Expired media items are automatically deleted once their expiration time has passed, typically during the next device idle period. Value is a non-negative timestamp measured as the number of seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z. This constant represents a column name that can be used with a `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/content/ContentProvider.html#` through a `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/content/ContentValues.html#` or `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/database/Cursor.html#` object.

Note that images must define both `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/media/ExifInterface.html#TAG_DATETIME_ORIGINAL:kotlin.String` and `ExifInterface#TAG_OFFSET_TIME_ORIGINAL` to reliably determine this value in relation to the epoch. Value is a non-negative timestamp measured as the number of milliseconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z. This constant represents a column name that can be used with a `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/content/ContentProvider.html#` through a `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/content/ContentValues.html#` or `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/database/Cursor.html#` object.

For example, an item stored at `/storage/0000-0000/DCIM/Vacation/IMG1024.JPG` would have a display name of `IMG1024.JPG`. This constant represents a column name that can be used with a `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/content/ContentProvider.html#` through a `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/content/ContentValues.html#` or `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/database/Cursor.html#` object. The values stored in this column are `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/database/Cursor.html#FIELD_TYPE_STRING:kotlin.Int` . <br /> | | `https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html` | `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/provider/MediaStore.MediaColumns#DOCUMENT_ID:kotlin.String` The "document ID" GUID as defined by the *XMP Media Management* standard, extracted from any XMP metadata contained within this media item. The value is `null` when no metadata was found. Each "document ID" is created once for each new resource. Different renditions of that resource are expected to have different IDs. This constant represents a column name that can be used with a `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/content/ContentProvider.html#` through a `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/content/ContentValues.html#` or `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/database/Cursor.html#` object. The values stored in this column are `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/database/Cursor.html#FIELD_TYPE_STRING:kotlin.Int` , and are read-only and cannot be mutated. <br /> | | `https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html` | `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/provider/MediaStore.MediaColumns#DURATION:kotlin.String` Indexed value of `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/media/MediaMetadataRetriever.html#METADATA_KEY_DURATION:kotlin.Int` extracted from this media item.

This is useful for apps that are attempting to quickly identify exactly which media items have been added since a previous point in time. Generation numbers are monotonically increasing over time, and can be safely arithmetically compared. Detecting media additions using generation numbers is more robust than using `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/provider/MediaStore.MediaColumns#DATE_ADDED:kotlin.String`, since those values may change in unexpected ways when apps use `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/java/io/File.html#setLastModified(kotlin.Long)` or when the system clock is set incorrectly. Note that before comparing these detailed generation values, you should first confirm that the overall version hasn't changed by checking `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/provider/MediaStore#getVersion(android.content.Context,%20kotlin.String)`, since that indicates when a more radical change has occurred. If the overall version changes, you should assume that generation numbers have been reset and perform a full synchronization pass. This constant represents a column name that can be used with a `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/content/ContentProvider.html#` through a `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/content/ContentValues.html#` or `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/database/Cursor.html#` object.

This "original document ID" links a resource to its original source. For example, when you save a PSD document as a JPEG, then convert the JPEG to GIF format, the "original document ID" of both the JPEG and GIF files is the "document ID" of the original PSD file. This constant represents a column name that can be used with a `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/content/ContentProvider.html#` through a `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/content/ContentValues.html#` or `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/database/Cursor.html#` object.

The value may be `NULL` if ownership cannot be reliably determined. From Android `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/os/Build.VERSION_CODES.html#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE:kotlin.Int` onwards, visibility and query of this field will depend on [package visibility](https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/training/basics/intents/package-visibility). For android.content.ContentResolver#query operation, result set will be restricted to visible packages only. This constant represents a column name that can be used with a `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/content/ContentProvider.html#` through a `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/content/ContentValues.html#` or `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/database/Cursor.html#` object.

For example, an item stored at `/storage/0000-0000/DCIM/Vacation/IMG1024.JPG` would have a path of `DCIM/Vacation/`. This value should only be used for organizational purposes, and you should not attempt to construct or access a raw filesystem path using this value. If you need to open a media item, use an API like `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/content/ContentResolver.html#openFileDescriptor(android.net.Uri,%20kotlin.String)`. When this value is set to `NULL` during an android.content.ContentResolver#insert operation, the newly created item will be placed in a relevant default location based on the type of media being inserted. For example, a `image/jpeg` item will be placed under `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/os/Environment.html#DIRECTORY_PICTURES:kotlin.String`. You can modify this column during an android.content.ContentResolver#update call, which will move the underlying file on disk. In both cases above, content must be placed under a top-level directory that is relevant to the media type. For example, attempting to place a `audio/mpeg` file under `https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/os/Environment.html#DIRECTORY_PICTURES:kotlin.String` will be rejected.

Added in [API level 11](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html#ApiLevels)

```
static val MIME_TYPE: String
```

The MIME type of the media item.

This is typically defined based on the file extension of the media item. However, it may be the value of the `format` attribute defined by the *Dublin Core Media Initiative* standard, extracted from any XMP metadata contained within this media item.

Note: the `format` attribute may be ignored if the top-level MIME type disagrees with the file extension. For example, it's reasonable for an `image/jpeg` file to declare a `format` of `image/vnd.google.panorama360+jpg`, but declaring a `format` of `audio/ogg` would be ignored.

This is a read-only column that is automatically computed.
