Remarks

Creates an intent for obtaining a web link for the specified document.

Note, that due to internal limitations, if there is already a web link intent created for the specified document but with different options, then it may be overridden.

Providers are required to show confirmation UI for all new permissions granted for the linked document.

If list of recipients is known, then it should be passed in options as Intent#EXTRA_EMAIL as a list of email addresses. Note, that this is just a hint for the provider, which can ignore the list. In either case the provider is required to show a UI for letting the user confirm any new permission grants.

Note, that the entire options bundle will be sent to the provider backing the passed uri. Make sure that you trust the provider before passing any sensitive information.

Since this API may show a UI, it cannot be called from background.

In order to obtain the Web Link use code like this:

<code>
            void onSomethingHappened() {
              IntentSender sender = DocumentsContract.createWebLinkIntent(<i>...</i>);
              if (sender != null) {
                startIntentSenderForResult(
                    sender,
                    WEB_LINK_REQUEST_CODE,
                    null, 0, 0, 0, null);
              }
            }

<i>(...)</i>

            void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
              if (requestCode == WEB_LINK_REQUEST_CODE && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
                Uri weblinkUri = data.getData();
<i>...</i>
              }
            }
</code>
