We use the term file import to refer to the Open with feature within Gini Bank SDK. From the point of view of the SDK, files are imported into the SDK from an outside source. It is unaware and can't set configuration related to enabling the client app to receive files via Android’s Open-with or /Share functionality.
...
The “Open with…” feature can be found under different names in the Android phones, e.g: "Send to", "Share", “Share with” and "Open with".

Please note that the “Open with (Share, Send to)” feature is disabled by default. To enable this feature, pass |

Register image and PDF file types

Make sure the name of activity used in the below configuration is the same as the name of the activity handling your SDK implementation. In addition: Make sure that this activity is publically available. |
Add the following intent filter to the activity in your AndroidManifest.xml to receive incoming images and PDF files:
...
We recommend adding ACTION_VIEW to the intent filter to let users send images and PDF files to your app from apps that don’t implement sharing with ACTION_SEND but enable viewing images and PDF files with other apps.
Handle imported files
When your app is requested to handle an image or a PDF file, your activity (declaring the intent filter shown above) is launched or resumed (onNewetentonNewIntent()) with the Intent having ACTION_VIEW or ACTION_SEND.

String action = intent.getAction();
if (Intent.ACTION_VIEW.equals(action) || Intent.ACTION_SEND.equals(action)) {
...
} |
Launch the SDK as a fragment
If the Intent passes the above check then register an activity result handler with the CaptureFlowImportContract() and check for ACTION_VIEW and ACTION_SEND, then pass the Intent to GiniBank.startCaptureFlowFortentcreateCaptureFlowFragmentForIntent():

Detect when your app is the default app for opening images or PDF files
Android users can unintentionally set your app as the default for opening images or PDF files. To inform users about it and let them undo it, the SDK detects if your app is selected as the default app and shows the Clear Defaults Dialog enabling them to clear the defaults for your app in the Android settings.
