Standard Activity Actions

These are the current standard actions that Intent defines for launching activities (usually through startActivity(Intent). The most important, and by far most frequently used, are ACTION_MAIN and ACTION_EDIT.

ACTION_MAIN
Activity Action: Start as a main entry point, does not expect to receive data.
Input: nothing
Output: nothing
Constant Value: "android.intent.action.MAIN"
ACTION_VIEW
Activity Action: Display the data to the user. This is the most common action performed on data -- it is the generic action you can use on a piece of data to get the most reasonable thing to occur. For example, when used on a contacts entry it will view the entry; when used on a mailto: URI it will bring up a compose window filled with the information supplied by the URI; when used with a tel: URI it will invoke the dialer.
Input: getData() is URI from which to retrieve data.
Output: nothing.
Constant Value: "android.intent.action.VIEW"
ACTION_ATTACH_DATA
Used to indicate that some piece of data should be attached to some other place. For example, image data could be attached to a contact. It is up to the recipient to decide where the data should be attached; the intent does not specify the ultimate destination.
Input: getData() is URI of data to be attached.
Output: nothing.
Constant Value: "android.intent.action.ATTACH_DATA"

ACTION_EDIT
Activity Action: Provide explicit editable access to the given data.
Input: getData() is URI of data to be edited.
Output: nothing.
Constant Value: "android.intent.action.EDIT"
ACTION_PICK
Activity Action: Pick an item from the data, returning what was selected.
Input: getData() is URI containing a directory of data (vnd.android.cursor.dir/*) from which to pick an item.
Output: The URI of the item that was picked.
Constant Value: "android.intent.action.PICK"
