 The contract between the contacts provider and applications. Contains definitions for the supported URIs and columns. These APIs supersede Contacts. 
Overview

ContactsContract defines an extensible database of contact-related
information. Contact information is stored in a three-tier data model:


 A row in the Data table can store any kind of personal data, such as a phone number or email addresses. The set of data kinds that can be stored in this table is open-ended. There is a predefined set of common kinds, but any application can add its own data kinds. 
 A row in the RawContacts table represents a set of data describing a person and associated with a single account (for example, one of the user's Gmail accounts). 
 A row in the Contacts table represents an aggregate of one or more RawContacts presumably describing the same person. When data in or associated with the RawContacts table is changed, the affected aggregate contacts are updated as necessary. 


Other tables include:


 Groups, which contains information about raw contact groups such as Gmail contact groups. The current API does not support the notion of groups spanning multiple accounts. 
 StatusUpdates, which contains social status updates including IM availability. 
 AggregationExceptions, which is used for manual aggregation and disaggregation of raw contacts 
 Settings, which contains visibility and sync settings for accounts and groups. 
 SyncState, which contains free-form data maintained on behalf of sync adapters 
 PhoneLookup, which is used for quick caller-ID lookup

 API for obtaining a pre-authorized version of a URI that normally requires special permission (beyond READ_CONTACTS) to read. The caller obtaining the pre-authorized URI must already have the necessary permissions to access the URI; otherwise a SecurityException will be thrown. Unlike Context.grantUriPermission, this can be used to grant permissions that aren't explicitly required for the URI inside AndroidManifest.xml. For example, permissions that are only required when reading URIs that refer to the user's profile. 

The authorized URI returned in the bundle contains an expiring token that allows the
caller to execute the query without having the special permissions that would normally
be required. The token expires in five minutes.


This API does not access disk, and should be safe to invoke from the UI thread.


Example usage:
Uri profileUri = ContactsContract.Profile.CONTENT_VCARD_URI;
Bundle uriBundle = new Bundle();
uriBundle.putParcelable(ContactsContract.Authorization.KEY_URI_TO_AUTHORIZE, uri);
Bundle authResponse = getContext().getContentResolver().call(

        ContactsContract.Authorization.AUTHORIZATION_METHOD,
        null, // String arg, not used.

A Directory represents a contacts corpus, e.g. Local contacts,
Google Apps Global Address List or Corporate Global Address List.

A Directory is implemented as a content provider with its unique authority and
the same API as the main Contacts Provider.  However, there is no expectation that
every directory provider will implement this Contract in its entirety.  If a
directory provider does not have an implementation for a specific request, it
should throw an UnsupportedOperationException.

 The most important use case for Directories is search. A Directory provider is expected to support at least 
Contacts.CONTENT_FILTER_URI. If a Directory provider wants to participate in email and phone lookup functionalities, it should also implement CommonDataKinds.Email.CONTENT_FILTER_URI and CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_FILTER_URI. 

A directory provider should return NULL for every projection field it does not
recognize, rather than throwing an exception.  This way it will not be broken
if ContactsContract is extended with new fields in the future.

 The client interacts with a directory via Contacts Provider by supplying an optional directory= query parameter. 


When the Contacts Provider receives the request, it transforms the URI and forwards
the request to the corresponding directory content provider.
The URI is transformed in the following fashion:

The URI authority is replaced with the corresponding DIRECTORY_AUTHORITY.
The accountName= and accountType= parameters are added or replaced using the corresponding ACCOUNT_TYPE and ACCOUNT_NAME values.



Clients should send directory requests to Contacts Provider and let it
forward them to the respective providers rather than constructing
directory provider URIs by themselves. This level of indirection allows
Contacts Provider to implement additional system-level features and
optimizations. Access to Contacts Provider is protected by the
READ_CONTACTS permission, but access to the directory provider is protected by
BIND_DIRECTORY_SEARCH. This permission was introduced at the API level 17, for previous
platform versions the provider should perform the following check to make sure the call
is coming from the ContactsProvider:
private boolean isCallerAllowed() {
  PackageManager pm = getContext().getPackageManager();
  for (String packageName: pm.getPackagesForUid(Binder.getCallingUid())) {
    if (packageName.equals("com.android.providers.contacts")) {
      return true;
    }
  }
  return false;
}



The Directory table is read-only and is maintained by the Contacts Provider
automatically.

It always has at least these two rows:

 The local directory. It has Directory._ID = Directory.DEFAULT. This directory can be used to access locally stored contacts. The same can be achieved by omitting the directory= parameter altogether. 
 The local invisible contacts. The corresponding directory ID is Directory.LOCAL_INVISIBLE. 


Custom Directories are discovered by the Contacts Provider following this procedure:

It finds all installed content providers with meta data identifying them
as directory providers in AndroidManifest.xml:

<meta-data android:name="android.content.ContactDirectory"
              android:value="true" />


This tag should be placed inside the corresponding content provider declaration.


 Then Contacts Provider sends a Directory.CONTENT_URI query to each of the directory authorities. A directory provider must implement this query and return a list of directories. Each directory returned by the provider must have a unique combination for the ACCOUNT_NAME and ACCOUNT_TYPE columns (nulls are allowed). Since directory IDs are assigned automatically, the _ID field will not be part of the query projection. 
Contacts Provider compiles directory lists received from all directory
providers into one, assigns each individual directory a globally unique ID and
stores all directory records in the Directory table.



Contacts Provider automatically interrogates newly installed or replaced packages.
Thus simply installing a package containing a directory provider is sufficient
to have that provider registered.  A package supplying a directory provider does
not have to contain launchable activities.


Every row in the Directory table is automatically associated with the corresponding package
(apk).  If the package is later uninstalled, all corresponding directory rows
are automatically removed from the Contacts Provider.

 When the list of directories handled by a directory provider changes (for instance when the user adds a new Directory account), the directory provider should call notifyDirectoryChange to notify the Contacts Provider of the change. In response, the Contacts Provider will requery the directory provider to obtain the new list of directories. 
 A directory row can be optionally associated with an existing account (see AccountManager). If the account is later removed, the corresponding directory rows are automatically removed from the Contacts Provider.

Constants for the contacts table, which contains a record per aggregate

Operations

Insert
A Contact cannot be created explicitly. When a raw contact is inserted, the provider will first try to find a Contact representing the same person. If one is found, the raw contact's RawContactsColumns.CONTACT_ID column gets the _ID of the aggregate Contact. If no match is found, the provider automatically inserts a new Contact and puts its _ID into the RawContactsColumns.CONTACT_ID column of the newly inserted raw contact.
Update
Only certain columns of Contact are modifiable: ContactOptionsColumns.TIMES_CONTACTED, ContactOptionsColumns.LAST_TIME_CONTACTED, ContactOptionsColumns.STARRED, ContactOptionsColumns.CUSTOM_RINGTONE, ContactOptionsColumns.SEND_TO_VOICEMAIL. Changing any of these columns on the Contact also changes them on all constituent raw contacts.
Delete
Be careful with deleting Contacts! Deleting an aggregate contact
deletes all constituent raw contacts. The corresponding sync adapters
will notice the deletions of their respective raw contacts and remove
them from their back end storage.
Query


If you need to read an individual contact, consider using CONTENT_LOOKUP_URI instead of CONTENT_URI.
If you need to look up a contact by the phone number, use PhoneLookup.CONTENT_FILTER_URI, which is optimized for this purpose.
If you need to look up a contact by partial name, e.g. to produce filter-as-you-type suggestions, use the CONTENT_FILTER_URI URI. 
If you need to look up a contact by some data element like email address, nickname, etc, use a query against the Data table. The result will contain contact ID, name etc. 


Columns


Contacts


long
BaseColumns._ID
read-only
Row ID. Consider using ContactsColumns.LOOKUP_KEY instead.


String
ContactsColumns.LOOKUP_KEY
read-only
An opaque value that contains hints on how to find the contact if its
row id changed as a result of a sync or aggregation.


long
NAME_RAW_CONTACT_ID
read-only
The ID of the raw contact that contributes the display name
to the aggregate contact. During aggregation one of the constituent
raw contacts is chosen using a heuristic: a longer name or a name
with more diacritic marks or more upper case characters is chosen.


String
DISPLAY_NAME_PRIMARY
read-only
The display name for the contact. It is the display name
contributed by the raw contact referred to by the NAME_RAW_CONTACT_ID
column.


long
ContactsColumns.PHOTO_ID
read-only
Reference to the row in the Data table holding the photo. That row has the mime type Photo.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE. The value of this field is computed automatically based on the DataColumns.IS_SUPER_PRIMARY field of the data rows of that mime type.


long
ContactsColumns.PHOTO_URI
read-only
A URI that can be used to retrieve the contact's full-size photo. This
column is the preferred method of retrieving the contact photo.


long
ContactsColumns.PHOTO_THUMBNAIL_URI
read-only
A URI that can be used to retrieve the thumbnail of contact's photo.  This
column is the preferred method of retrieving the contact photo.


int
ContactsColumns.IN_VISIBLE_GROUP
read-only
An indicator of whether this contact is supposed to be visible in the
UI. "1" if the contact has at least one raw contact that belongs to a
visible group; "0" otherwise.


int
ContactsColumns.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER
read-only
An indicator of whether this contact has at least one phone number.
"1" if there is at least one phone number, "0" otherwise.


int
ContactOptionsColumns.TIMES_CONTACTED
read/write
The number of times the contact has been contacted. See markAsContacted. When raw contacts are aggregated, this field is computed automatically as the maximum number of times contacted among all constituent raw contacts. Setting this field automatically changes the corresponding field on all constituent raw contacts.


long
ContactOptionsColumns.LAST_TIME_CONTACTED
read/write
The timestamp of the last time the contact was contacted. See markAsContacted. Setting this field also automatically increments ContactOptionsColumns.TIMES_CONTACTED. When raw contacts are aggregated, this field is computed automatically as the latest time contacted of all constituent raw contacts. Setting this field automatically changes the corresponding field on all constituent raw contacts.


int
ContactOptionsColumns.STARRED
read/write
An indicator for favorite contacts: '1' if favorite, '0' otherwise.
When raw contacts are aggregated, this field is automatically computed:
if any constituent raw contacts are starred, then this field is set to
'1'. Setting this field automatically changes the corresponding field on
all constituent raw contacts.


String
ContactOptionsColumns.CUSTOM_RINGTONE
read/write
A custom ringtone associated with a contact. Typically this is the URI returned by an activity launched with the RingtoneManager.ACTION_RINGTONE_PICKER intent.


int
ContactOptionsColumns.SEND_TO_VOICEMAIL
read/write
An indicator of whether calls from this contact should be forwarded
directly to voice mail ('1') or not ('0'). When raw contacts are
aggregated, this field is automatically computed: if all
constituent raw contacts have SEND_TO_VOICEMAIL=1, then this field is set
to '1'. Setting this field automatically changes the corresponding field
on all constituent raw contacts.


int
ContactStatusColumns.CONTACT_PRESENCE
read-only
Contact IM presence status. See StatusUpdates for individual status definitions. Automatically computed as the highest presence of all constituent raw contacts. The provider may choose not to store this value in persistent storage. The expectation is that presence status will be updated on a regular basis.


String
ContactStatusColumns.CONTACT_STATUS
read-only
Contact's latest status update. Automatically computed as the latest
of all constituent raw contacts' status updates.


long
ContactStatusColumns.CONTACT_STATUS_TIMESTAMP
read-only
The absolute time in milliseconds when the latest status was
inserted/updated.


String
ContactStatusColumns.CONTACT_STATUS_RES_PACKAGE
read-only
 The package containing resources for this status: label and icon.


long
ContactStatusColumns.CONTACT_STATUS_LABEL
read-only
The resource ID of the label describing the source of contact status, e.g. "Google Talk". This resource is scoped by the ContactStatusColumns.CONTACT_STATUS_RES_PACKAGE.


long
ContactStatusColumns.CONTACT_STATUS_ICON
read-only
The resource ID of the icon for the source of contact status. This resource is scoped by the ContactStatusColumns.CONTACT_STATUS_RES_PACKAGE.

Entity reads all data for the entire contact in one transaction, to
guarantee consistency.  There is significant data duplication
in the Entity (each row repeats all Contact columns and all RawContact
columns), so the benefits of transactional consistency should be weighed
against the cost of transferring large amounts of denormalized data

providers implementing this protocol are allowed to provide common Contacts
and RawContacts fields in the first row returned for each raw contact only and
leave them as null in subsequent rows.

A read-only sub-directory of a single contact aggregate that
contains all aggregation suggestions (other contacts). The
aggregation suggestions are computed based on approximate data
matches with this contact.


Note: this query may be expensive! If you need to use it in bulk,
make sure the user experience is acceptable when the query runs for a
long time.

Usage example:
Uri uri = Contacts.CONTENT_URI.buildUpon()
         .appendEncodedPath(String.valueOf(contactId))
         .appendPath(Contacts.AggregationSuggestions.CONTENT_DIRECTORY)
         .appendQueryParameter("limit", "3")
         .build()
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(suggestionsUri,
         new String[] {Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME, Contacts._ID, Contacts.LOOKUP_KEY},
         null, null, null);


 This directory can be used either with a Contacts.CONTENT_URI or Contacts.CONTENT_LOOKUP_URI.

A read-only sub-directory of a single contact that contains
the contact's primary photo.  The photo may be stored in up to two ways -
the default "photo" is a thumbnail-sized image stored directly in the data
row, while the "display photo", if present, is a larger version stored as
a file.

Usage example:

Retrieving the thumbnail-sized photo

public InputStream openPhoto(long contactId) {
    Uri contactUri = ContentUris.withAppendedId(Contacts.CONTENT_URI, contactId);
    Uri photoUri = Uri.withAppendedPath(contactUri, Contacts.Photo.CONTENT_DIRECTORY);
    Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(photoUri,
         new String[] {Contacts.Photo.PHOTO}, null, null, null);
    if (cursor == null) {
        return null;
    }
    try {
        if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
            byte[] data = cursor.getBlob(0);
            if (data != null) {
                return new ByteArrayInputStream(data);
            }
        }
    } finally {
        cursor.close();
    }
    return null;
}


Retrieving the larger photo version

public InputStream openDisplayPhoto(long contactId) {
    Uri contactUri = ContentUris.withAppendedId(Contacts.CONTENT_URI, contactId);
    Uri displayPhotoUri = Uri.withAppendedPath(contactUri, Contacts.Photo.DISPLAY_PHOTO);
    try {
        AssetFileDescriptor fd =
            getContentResolver().openAssetFileDescriptor(displayPhotoUri, "r");
        return fd.createInputStream();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        return null;
    }
}




You may also consider using the convenience method Contacts.openContactPhotoInputStream(ContentResolver, Uri, boolean) to retrieve the raw photo contents of either the thumbnail-sized or the full-sized photo. 
 This directory can be used either with a Contacts.CONTENT_URI or Contacts.CONTENT_LOOKUP_URI.

Constants for the user's profile data, which is represented as a single contact on
the device that represents the user.  The profile contact is not aggregated
together automatically in the same way that normal contacts are; instead, each
account (including data set, if applicable) on the device may contribute a single
raw contact representing the user's personal profile data from that source.


Access to the profile entry through these URIs (or incidental access to parts of
the profile if retrieved directly via ID) requires additional permissions beyond
the read/write contact permissions required by the provider.  Querying for profile
data requires android.permission.READ_PROFILE permission, and inserting or
updating profile data requires android.permission.WRITE_PROFILE permission.

Operations

Insert
The user's profile entry cannot be created explicitly (attempting to do so will throw an exception). When a raw contact is inserted into the profile, the provider will check for the existence of a profile on the device. If one is found, the raw contact's RawContactsColumns.CONTACT_ID column gets the _ID of the profile Contact. If no match is found, the profile Contact is created and its _ID is put into the RawContactsColumns.CONTACT_ID column of the newly inserted raw contact.
Update
The profile Contact has the same update restrictions as Contacts in general,
but requires the android.permission.WRITE_PROFILE permission.
Delete
The profile Contact cannot be explicitly deleted.  It will be removed
automatically if all of its constituent raw contact entries are deleted.
Query


The CONTENT_URI for profiles behaves in much the same way as retrieving a contact by ID, except that it will only ever return the user's profile contact. 

The profile contact supports all of the same sub-paths as an individual contact
does - the content of the profile contact can be retrieved as entities or
data rows.  Similarly, specific raw contact entries can be retrieved by appending
the desired raw contact ID within the profile.

Constants for the raw contacts table, which contains one row of contact
information for each person in each synced account. Sync adapters and
contact management apps
are the primary consumers of this API.
Aggregation
 As soon as a raw contact is inserted or whenever its constituent data changes, the provider will check if the raw contact matches other existing raw contacts and if so will aggregate it with those. The aggregation is reflected in the RawContacts table by the change of the RawContactsColumns.CONTACT_ID field, which is the reference to the aggregate contact. 

Changes to the structured name, organization, phone number, email address,
or nickname trigger a re-aggregation.

 See also AggregationExceptions for a mechanism to control aggregation programmatically. 
Operations

Insert

 Raw contacts can be inserted incrementally or in a batch. The incremental method is more traditional but less efficient. It should be used only if no Data values are available at the time the raw contact is created: 
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, accountType);
values.put(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, accountName);
Uri rawContactUri = getContentResolver().insert(RawContacts.CONTENT_URI, values);
long rawContactId = ContentUris.parseId(rawContactUri);


 Once Data values become available, insert those. For example, here's how you would insert a name: 
values.clear();
values.put(Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID, rawContactId);
values.put(Data.MIMETYPE, StructuredName.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);
values.put(StructuredName.DISPLAY_NAME, "Mike Sullivan");
getContentResolver().insert(Data.CONTENT_URI, values);



The batch method is by far preferred.  It inserts the raw contact and its
constituent data rows in a single database transaction
and causes at most one aggregation pass.
ArrayList<ContentProviderOperation> ops =
         new ArrayList<ContentProviderOperation>();
...
int rawContactInsertIndex = ops.size();
ops.add(ContentProviderOperation.newInsert(RawContacts.CONTENT_URI)
         .withValue(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, accountType)
         .withValue(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, accountName)
         .build());
ops.add(ContentProviderOperation.newInsert(Data.CONTENT_URI)
         .withValueBackReference(Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID, rawContactInsertIndex)
         .withValue(Data.MIMETYPE, StructuredName.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE)
         .withValue(StructuredName.DISPLAY_NAME, "Mike Sullivan")
         .build());
getContentResolver().applyBatch(ContactsContract.AUTHORITY, ops);


 Note the use of Builder.withValueBackReference(String, int) to refer to the as-yet-unknown index value of the raw contact inserted in the first operation. 
Update

Raw contacts can be updated incrementally or in a batch.
Batch mode should be used whenever possible.
The procedures and considerations are analogous to those documented above for inserts.

Delete
When a raw contact is deleted, all of its Data rows as well as StatusUpdates, AggregationExceptions, PhoneLookup rows are deleted automatically. When all raw contacts associated with a Contacts row are deleted, the Contacts row itself is also deleted automatically. 
 The invocation of resolver.delete(...), does not immediately delete a raw contacts row. Instead, it sets the RawContactsColumns.DELETED flag on the raw contact and removes the raw contact from its aggregate contact. The sync adapter then deletes the raw contact from the server and finalizes phone-side deletion by calling resolver.delete(...) again and passing the ContactsContract.CALLER_IS_SYNCADAPTER query parameter.

Some sync adapters are read-only, meaning that they only sync server-side
changes to the phone, but not the reverse.  If one of those raw contacts
is marked for deletion, it will remain on the phone.  However it will be
effectively invisible, because it will not be part of any aggregate contact.

Query


It is easy to find all raw contacts in a Contact:
Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(RawContacts.CONTENT_URI,
         new String[]{RawContacts._ID},
         RawContacts.CONTACT_ID + "=?",
         new String[]{String.valueOf(contactId)}, null);



To find raw contacts within a specific account,
you can either put the account name and type in the selection or pass them as query
parameters.  The latter approach is preferable, especially when you can reuse the
URI:
Uri rawContactUri = RawContacts.CONTENT_URI.buildUpon()
         .appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, accountName)
         .appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, accountType)
         .build();
Cursor c1 = getContentResolver().query(rawContactUri,
         RawContacts.STARRED + "<>0", null, null, null);
...
Cursor c2 = getContentResolver().query(rawContactUri,
         RawContacts.DELETED + "<>0", null, null, null);


The best way to read a raw contact along with all the data associated with it is by using the Entity directory. If the raw contact has data rows, the Entity cursor will contain a row for each data row. If the raw contact has no data rows, the cursor will still contain one row with the raw contact-level information. 
Uri rawContactUri = ContentUris.withAppendedId(RawContacts.CONTENT_URI, rawContactId);
Uri entityUri = Uri.withAppendedPath(rawContactUri, Entity.CONTENT_DIRECTORY);
Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(entityUri,
         new String[]{RawContacts.SOURCE_ID, Entity.DATA_ID, Entity.MIMETYPE, Entity.DATA1},
         null, null, null);
try {
    while (c.moveToNext()) {
        String sourceId = c.getString(0);
        if (!c.isNull(1)) {
            String mimeType = c.getString(2);
            String data = c.getString(3);
            ...
        }
    }
} finally {
    c.close();
}




Columns


RawContacts


long
BaseColumns._ID
read-only
Row ID. Sync adapters should try to preserve row IDs during updates. In other words,
it is much better for a sync adapter to update a raw contact rather than to delete and
re-insert it.


long
RawContactsColumns.CONTACT_ID
read-only
The ID of the row in the Contacts table that this raw contact belongs to. Raw contacts are linked to contacts by the aggregation process, which can be controlled by the RawContactsColumns.AGGREGATION_MODE field and AggregationExceptions.


int
RawContactsColumns.AGGREGATION_MODE
read/write
A mechanism that allows programmatic control of the aggregation process. The allowed values are AGGREGATION_MODE_DEFAULT, AGGREGATION_MODE_DISABLED and AGGREGATION_MODE_SUSPENDED. See also AggregationExceptions.


int
RawContactsColumns.DELETED
read/write
The "deleted" flag: "0" by default, "1" if the row has been marked for deletion. When ContentResolver.delete is called on a raw contact, it is marked for deletion and removed from its aggregate contact. The sync adaptor deletes the raw contact on the server and then calls ContactResolver.delete once more, this time passing the ContactsContract.CALLER_IS_SYNCADAPTER query parameter to finalize the data removal.


int
ContactOptionsColumns.TIMES_CONTACTED
read/write
The number of times the contact has been contacted. To have an effect on the corresponding value of the aggregate contact, this field should be set at the time the raw contact is inserted. After that, this value is typically updated via Contacts.markAsContacted.


long
ContactOptionsColumns.LAST_TIME_CONTACTED
read/write
The timestamp of the last time the contact was contacted. To have an effect on the corresponding value of the aggregate contact, this field should be set at the time the raw contact is inserted. After that, this value is typically updated via Contacts.markAsContacted. 


int
ContactOptionsColumns.STARRED
read/write
An indicator for favorite contacts: '1' if favorite, '0' otherwise.
Changing this field immediately affects the corresponding aggregate contact:
if any raw contacts in that aggregate contact are starred, then the contact
itself is marked as starred.


String
ContactOptionsColumns.CUSTOM_RINGTONE
read/write
A custom ringtone associated with a raw contact. Typically this is the URI returned by an activity launched with the RingtoneManager.ACTION_RINGTONE_PICKER intent. To have an effect on the corresponding value of the aggregate contact, this field should be set at the time the raw contact is inserted. To set a custom ringtone on a contact, use the field 
Contacts.CUSTOM_RINGTONE instead.


int
ContactOptionsColumns.SEND_TO_VOICEMAIL
read/write
An indicator of whether calls from this raw contact should be forwarded
directly to voice mail ('1') or not ('0'). To have an effect
on the corresponding value of the aggregate contact, this field
should be set at the time the raw contact is inserted.


String
SyncColumns.ACCOUNT_NAME
read/write-once
The name of the account instance to which this row belongs, which when paired with SyncColumns.ACCOUNT_TYPE identifies a specific account. For example, this will be the Gmail address if it is a Google account. It should be set at the time the raw contact is inserted and never changed afterwards.


String
SyncColumns.ACCOUNT_TYPE
read/write-once

 The type of account to which this row belongs, which when paired with SyncColumns.ACCOUNT_NAME identifies a specific account. It should be set at the time the raw contact is inserted and never changed afterwards. 

To ensure uniqueness, new account types should be chosen according to the
Java package naming convention.  Thus a Google account is of type "com.google".




String
RawContactsColumns.DATA_SET
read/write-once

 The data set within the account that this row belongs to. This allows multiple sync adapters for the same account type to distinguish between each others' data. The combination of SyncColumns.ACCOUNT_TYPE, SyncColumns.ACCOUNT_NAME, and RawContactsColumns.DATA_SET identifies a set of data that is associated with a single sync adapter. 

This is empty by default, and is completely optional.  It only needs to
be populated if multiple sync adapters are entering distinct data for
the same account type and account name.


It should be set at the time the raw contact is inserted and never
changed afterwards.




String
SyncColumns.SOURCE_ID
read/write
String that uniquely identifies this row to its source account.
Typically it is set at the time the raw contact is inserted and never
changed afterwards. The one notable exception is a new raw contact: it
will have an account name and type (and possibly a data set), but no
source id. This indicates to the sync adapter that a new contact needs
to be created server-side and its ID stored in the corresponding
SOURCE_ID field on the phone.



int
SyncColumns.VERSION
read-only
Version number that is updated whenever this row or its related data
changes. This field can be used for optimistic locking of a raw contact.



int
SyncColumns.DIRTY
read/write
Flag indicating that SyncColumns.VERSION has changed, and this row needs to be synchronized by its owning account. The value is set to "1" automatically whenever the raw contact changes, unless the URI has the ContactsContract.CALLER_IS_SYNCADAPTER query parameter specified. The sync adapter should always supply this query parameter to prevent unnecessary synchronization: user changes some data on the server, the sync adapter updates the contact on the phone (without the CALLER_IS_SYNCADAPTER flag) flag, which sets the DIRTY flag, which triggers a sync to bring the changes to the server. 


String
BaseSyncColumns.SYNC1
read/write
Generic column provided for arbitrary use by sync adapters.
The content provider
stores this information on behalf of the sync adapter but does not
interpret it in any way.



String
BaseSyncColumns.SYNC2
read/write
Generic column for use by sync adapters.



String
BaseSyncColumns.SYNC3
read/write
Generic column for use by sync adapters.



String
BaseSyncColumns.SYNC4
read/write
Generic column for use by sync adapters.



/**
     * Constants for the raw contacts table, which contains one row of contact
     * information for each person in each synced account. Sync adapters and
     * contact management apps
     * are the primary consumers of this API.
     *
     * <h3>Aggregation</h3>
     * <p>
     * As soon as a raw contact is inserted or whenever its constituent data
     * changes, the provider will check if the raw contact matches other
     * existing raw contacts and if so will aggregate it with those. The
     * aggregation is reflected in the {@link RawContacts} table by the change of the
     * {@link #CONTACT_ID} field, which is the reference to the aggregate contact.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * Changes to the structured name, organization, phone number, email address,
     * or nickname trigger a re-aggregation.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * See also {@link AggregationExceptions} for a mechanism to control
     * aggregation programmatically.
     * </p>
     *
     * <h3>Operations</h3>
     * <dl>
     * <dt><b>Insert</b></dt>
     * <dd>
     * <p>
     * Raw contacts can be inserted incrementally or in a batch.
     * The incremental method is more traditional but less efficient.
     * It should be used
     * only if no {@link Data} values are available at the time the raw contact is created:
     * <pre>
     * ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
     * values.put(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, accountType);
     * values.put(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, accountName);
     * Uri rawContactUri = getContentResolver().insert(RawContacts.CONTENT_URI, values);
     * long rawContactId = ContentUris.parseId(rawContactUri);
     * </pre>
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * Once {@link Data} values become available, insert those.
     * For example, here's how you would insert a name:
     *
     * <pre>
     * values.clear();
     * values.put(Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID, rawContactId);
     * values.put(Data.MIMETYPE, StructuredName.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);
     * values.put(StructuredName.DISPLAY_NAME, &quot;Mike Sullivan&quot;);
     * getContentResolver().insert(Data.CONTENT_URI, values);
     * </pre>
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * The batch method is by far preferred.  It inserts the raw contact and its
     * constituent data rows in a single database transaction
     * and causes at most one aggregation pass.
     * <pre>
     * ArrayList&lt;ContentProviderOperation&gt; ops =
     *          new ArrayList&lt;ContentProviderOperation&gt;();
     * ...
     * int rawContactInsertIndex = ops.size();
     * ops.add(ContentProviderOperation.newInsert(RawContacts.CONTENT_URI)
     *          .withValue(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, accountType)
     *          .withValue(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, accountName)
     *          .build());
     *
     * ops.add(ContentProviderOperation.newInsert(Data.CONTENT_URI)
     *          .withValueBackReference(Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID, rawContactInsertIndex)
     *          .withValue(Data.MIMETYPE, StructuredName.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE)
     *          .withValue(StructuredName.DISPLAY_NAME, &quot;Mike Sullivan&quot;)
     *          .build());
     *
     * getContentResolver().applyBatch(ContactsContract.AUTHORITY, ops);
     * </pre>
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * Note the use of {@link ContentProviderOperation.Builder#withValueBackReference(String, int)}
     * to refer to the as-yet-unknown index value of the raw contact inserted in the
     * first operation.
     * </p>
     *
     * <dt><b>Update</b></dt>
     * <dd><p>
     * Raw contacts can be updated incrementally or in a batch.
     * Batch mode should be used whenever possible.
     * The procedures and considerations are analogous to those documented above for inserts.
     * </p></dd>
     * <dt><b>Delete</b></dt>
     * <dd><p>When a raw contact is deleted, all of its Data rows as well as StatusUpdates,
     * AggregationExceptions, PhoneLookup rows are deleted automatically. When all raw
     * contacts associated with a {@link Contacts} row are deleted, the {@link Contacts} row
     * itself is also deleted automatically.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * The invocation of {@code resolver.delete(...)}, does not immediately delete
     * a raw contacts row.
     * Instead, it sets the {@link #DELETED} flag on the raw contact and
     * removes the raw contact from its aggregate contact.
     * The sync adapter then deletes the raw contact from the server and
     * finalizes phone-side deletion by calling {@code resolver.delete(...)}
     * again and passing the {@link ContactsContract#CALLER_IS_SYNCADAPTER} query parameter.<p>
     * <p>Some sync adapters are read-only, meaning that they only sync server-side
     * changes to the phone, but not the reverse.  If one of those raw contacts
     * is marked for deletion, it will remain on the phone.  However it will be
     * effectively invisible, because it will not be part of any aggregate contact.
     * </dd>
     *
     * <dt><b>Query</b></dt>
     * <dd>
     * <p>
     * It is easy to find all raw contacts in a Contact:
     * <pre>
     * Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(RawContacts.CONTENT_URI,
     *          new String[]{RawContacts._ID},
     *          RawContacts.CONTACT_ID + "=?",
     *          new String[]{String.valueOf(contactId)}, null);
     * </pre>
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * To find raw contacts within a specific account,
     * you can either put the account name and type in the selection or pass them as query
     * parameters.  The latter approach is preferable, especially when you can reuse the
     * URI:
     * <pre>
     * Uri rawContactUri = RawContacts.CONTENT_URI.buildUpon()
     *          .appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, accountName)
     *          .appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, accountType)
     *          .build();
     * Cursor c1 = getContentResolver().query(rawContactUri,
     *          RawContacts.STARRED + "&lt;&gt;0", null, null, null);
     * ...
     * Cursor c2 = getContentResolver().query(rawContactUri,
     *          RawContacts.DELETED + "&lt;&gt;0", null, null, null);
     * </pre>
     * </p>
     * <p>The best way to read a raw contact along with all the data associated with it is
     * by using the {@link Entity} directory. If the raw contact has data rows,
     * the Entity cursor will contain a row for each data row.  If the raw contact has no
     * data rows, the cursor will still contain one row with the raw contact-level information.
     * <pre>
     * Uri rawContactUri = ContentUris.withAppendedId(RawContacts.CONTENT_URI, rawContactId);
     * Uri entityUri = Uri.withAppendedPath(rawContactUri, Entity.CONTENT_DIRECTORY);
     * Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(entityUri,
     *          new String[]{RawContacts.SOURCE_ID, Entity.DATA_ID, Entity.MIMETYPE, Entity.DATA1},
     *          null, null, null);
     * try {
     *     while (c.moveToNext()) {
     *         String sourceId = c.getString(0);
     *         if (!c.isNull(1)) {
     *             String mimeType = c.getString(2);
     *             String data = c.getString(3);
     *             ...
     *         }
     *     }

 Entity has two ID fields: BaseColumns._ID for the raw contact and DATA_ID for the data rows. Entity always contains at least one row, even if there are no actual data rows. In this case the DATA_ID field will be null. 

Using Entity should be preferred to using two separate queries:
RawContacts followed by Data. The reason is that Entity reads all
data for a raw contact in one transaction, so there is no possibility
of the data changing between the two queries.

 A sub-directory of a single raw contact that represents its primary display photo. To access this directory append CONTENT_DIRECTORY to the raw contact URI. The resulting URI represents an image file, and should be interacted with using ContentResolver.openAssetFileDescriptor. 


Note that this sub-directory also supports opening the photo as an asset file
in write mode.  Callers can create or replace the primary photo associated
with this raw contact by opening the asset file and writing the full-size
photo contents into it.  When the file is closed, the image will be parsed,
sized down if necessary for the full-size display photo and thumbnail
dimensions, and stored.


Usage example:
public void writeDisplayPhoto(long rawContactId, byte[] photo) {
    Uri rawContactPhotoUri = Uri.withAppendedPath(
            ContentUris.withAppendedId(RawContacts.CONTENT_URI, rawContactId),

    try {
        AssetFileDescriptor fd =
            getContentResolver().openAssetFileDescriptor(rawContactPhotoUri, "rw");
        OutputStream os = fd.createOutputStream();
        os.write(photo);
        os.close();
        fd.close();
    } catch (IOException e) {

Constants for the stream_items table, which contains social stream updates from
the user's contact list.

 Only a certain number of stream items will ever be stored under a given raw contact. Users of this API can query CONTENT_LIMIT_URI to determine this limit, and should restrict the number of items inserted in any given transaction correspondingly. Insertion of more items beyond the limit will automatically lead to deletion of the oldest items, by StreamItemsColumns.TIMESTAMP. 

Access to the social stream through these URIs requires additional permissions beyond the
read/write contact permissions required by the provider.  Querying for social stream data
requires android.permission.READ_SOCIAL_STREAM permission, and inserting or updating social
stream items requires android.permission.WRITE_SOCIAL_STREAM permission.

Account check
 The content URIs to the insert, update and delete operations are required to have the account information matching that of the owning raw contact as query parameters, namely SyncColumns.ACCOUNT_TYPE and SyncColumns.ACCOUNT_NAME. RawContactsColumns.DATA_SET isn't required. 
Operations

Insert

Social stream updates are always associated with a raw contact.  There are a couple
of ways to insert these entries.

Via the StreamItems.CONTENT_DIRECTORY sub-path of a raw contact:

ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(StreamItems.TEXT, "Breakfasted at Tiffanys");
values.put(StreamItems.TIMESTAMP, timestamp);
values.put(StreamItems.COMMENTS, "3 people reshared this");
Uri.Builder builder = RawContacts.CONTENT_URI.buildUpon();
ContentUris.appendId(builder, rawContactId);
builder.appendEncodedPath(RawContacts.StreamItems.CONTENT_DIRECTORY);
builder.appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, accountName);
builder.appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, accountType);
Uri streamItemUri = getContentResolver().insert(builder.build(), values);
long streamItemId = ContentUris.parseId(streamItemUri);


Via CONTENT_URI:

ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(StreamItems.RAW_CONTACT_ID, rawContactId);
values.put(StreamItems.TEXT, "Breakfasted at Tiffanys");
values.put(StreamItems.TIMESTAMP, timestamp);
values.put(StreamItems.COMMENTS, "3 people reshared this");
Uri.Builder builder = StreamItems.CONTENT_URI.buildUpon();
builder.appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, accountName);
builder.appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, accountType);
Uri streamItemUri = getContentResolver().insert(builder.build(), values);
long streamItemId = ContentUris.parseId(streamItemUri);





 Once a StreamItems entry has been inserted, photos associated with that social update can be inserted. For example, after one of the insertions above, photos could be added to the stream item in one of the following ways: 

Via a URI including the stream item ID:

values.clear();
values.put(StreamItemPhotos.SORT_INDEX, 1);
values.put(StreamItemPhotos.PHOTO, photoData);
getContentResolver().insert(Uri.withAppendedPath(
    ContentUris.withAppendedId(StreamItems.CONTENT_URI, streamItemId),
    StreamItems.StreamItemPhotos.CONTENT_DIRECTORY), values);


Via CONTENT_PHOTO_URI:

values.clear();
values.put(StreamItemPhotos.STREAM_ITEM_ID, streamItemId);
values.put(StreamItemPhotos.SORT_INDEX, 1);
values.put(StreamItemPhotos.PHOTO, photoData);
getContentResolver().insert(StreamItems.CONTENT_PHOTO_URI, values);

Note that this latter form allows the insertion of a stream item and its photos in a single transaction, by using ContentProviderOperation with back references to populate the stream item ID in the ContentValues. 



Update
Updates can be performed by appending the stream item ID to the CONTENT_URI URI. Only social stream entries that were created by the calling package can be updated.
Delete
Deletes can be performed by appending the stream item ID to the CONTENT_URI URI. Only social stream entries that were created by the calling package can be deleted.
Query

Finding all social stream updates for a given contact
By Contact ID:
Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(Uri.withAppendedPath(
         ContentUris.withAppendedId(Contacts.CONTENT_URI, contactId),
         Contacts.StreamItems.CONTENT_DIRECTORY),
         null, null, null, null);


By lookup key:
Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(Contacts.CONTENT_URI.buildUpon()
         .appendPath(lookupKey)
         .appendPath(Contacts.StreamItems.CONTENT_DIRECTORY).build(),
         null, null, null, null);


Finding all social stream updates for a given raw contact

Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(Uri.withAppendedPath(
         ContentUris.withAppendedId(RawContacts.CONTENT_URI, rawContactId),
         RawContacts.StreamItems.CONTENT_DIRECTORY)),
         null, null, null, null);


Querying for a specific stream item by ID

Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(ContentUris.withAppendedId(
         StreamItems.CONTENT_URI, streamItemId),
         null, null, null, null);

Constants for the stream_item_photos table, which contains photos associated with
social stream updates.


Access to social stream photos requires additional permissions beyond the read/write
contact permissions required by the provider.  Querying for social stream photos
requires android.permission.READ_SOCIAL_STREAM permission, and inserting or updating
social stream photos requires android.permission.WRITE_SOCIAL_STREAM permission.

Account check
 The content URIs to the insert, update and delete operations are required to have the account information matching that of the owning raw contact as query parameters, namely SyncColumns.ACCOUNT_TYPE and SyncColumns.ACCOUNT_NAME. RawContactsColumns.DATA_SET isn't required. 
Operations

Insert

Social stream photo entries are associated with a social stream item.  Photos
can be inserted into a social stream item in a couple of ways:

 Via the StreamItemPhotos.CONTENT_DIRECTORY sub-path of a stream item: 

ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(StreamItemPhotos.SORT_INDEX, 1);
values.put(StreamItemPhotos.PHOTO, photoData);
Uri.Builder builder = StreamItems.CONTENT_URI.buildUpon();
ContentUris.appendId(builder, streamItemId);
builder.appendEncodedPath(StreamItems.StreamItemPhotos.CONTENT_DIRECTORY);
builder.appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, accountName);
builder.appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, accountType);
Uri photoUri = getContentResolver().insert(builder.build(), values);
long photoId = ContentUris.parseId(photoUri);


Via the StreamItems.CONTENT_PHOTO_URI URI:

ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(StreamItemPhotos.STREAM_ITEM_ID, streamItemId);
values.put(StreamItemPhotos.SORT_INDEX, 1);
values.put(StreamItemPhotos.PHOTO, photoData);
Uri.Builder builder = StreamItems.CONTENT_PHOTO_URI.buildUpon();
builder.appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, accountName);
builder.appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, accountType);
Uri photoUri = getContentResolver().insert(builder.build(), values);
long photoId = ContentUris.parseId(photoUri);





Update

Updates can only be made against a specific StreamItemPhotos entry, identified by both the stream item ID it belongs to and the stream item photo ID. This can be specified in two ways. 

Via the StreamItemPhotos.CONTENT_DIRECTORY sub-path of a stream item: 

ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(StreamItemPhotos.PHOTO, newPhotoData);
Uri.Builder builder = StreamItems.CONTENT_URI.buildUpon();
ContentUris.appendId(builder, streamItemId);
builder.appendEncodedPath(StreamItems.StreamItemPhotos.CONTENT_DIRECTORY);
ContentUris.appendId(builder, streamItemPhotoId);
builder.appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, accountName);
builder.appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, accountType);
getContentResolver().update(builder.build(), values, null, null);


Via the StreamItems.CONTENT_PHOTO_URI URI:

ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(StreamItemPhotos.STREAM_ITEM_ID, streamItemId);
values.put(StreamItemPhotos.PHOTO, newPhotoData);
Uri.Builder builder = StreamItems.CONTENT_PHOTO_URI.buildUpon();
builder.appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, accountName);
builder.appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, accountType);
getContentResolver().update(builder.build(), values);





Delete
Deletes can be made against either a specific photo item in a stream item, or
against all or a selected subset of photo items under a stream item.
For example:

Deleting a single photo via the StreamItemPhotos.CONTENT_DIRECTORY sub-path of a stream item: 

Uri.Builder builder = StreamItems.CONTENT_URI.buildUpon();
ContentUris.appendId(builder, streamItemId);
builder.appendEncodedPath(StreamItems.StreamItemPhotos.CONTENT_DIRECTORY);
ContentUris.appendId(builder, streamItemPhotoId);
builder.appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, accountName);
builder.appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, accountType);
getContentResolver().delete(builder.build(), null, null);


Deleting all photos under a stream item

Uri.Builder builder = StreamItems.CONTENT_URI.buildUpon();
ContentUris.appendId(builder, streamItemId);
builder.appendEncodedPath(StreamItems.StreamItemPhotos.CONTENT_DIRECTORY);
builder.appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, accountName);
builder.appendQueryParameter(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, accountType);
getContentResolver().delete(builder.build(), null, null);




Query

Querying for a specific photo in a stream item

Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(
    ContentUris.withAppendedId(
        Uri.withAppendedPath(
            ContentUris.withAppendedId(StreamItems.CONTENT_URI, streamItemId)
            StreamItems.StreamItemPhotos#CONTENT_DIRECTORY),
        streamItemPhotoId), null, null, null, null);


Querying for all photos in a stream item

Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(
    Uri.withAppendedPath(
        ContentUris.withAppendedId(StreamItems.CONTENT_URI, streamItemId)
        StreamItems.StreamItemPhotos#CONTENT_DIRECTORY),
    null, null, null, StreamItemPhotos.SORT_INDEX);

 The record will contain both a StreamItemPhotosColumns.PHOTO_FILE_ID and a StreamItemPhotosColumns.PHOTO_URI. The StreamItemPhotosColumns.PHOTO_FILE_ID can be used in conjunction with the DisplayPhoto API to retrieve photo content, or you can open the StreamItemPhotosColumns.PHOTO_URI as an asset file, as follows: 
public InputStream openDisplayPhoto(String photoUri) {
    try {
        AssetFileDescriptor fd = getContentResolver().openAssetFileDescriptor(photoUri, "r");
        return fd.createInputStream();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        return null;
    }
}

- Do not use. This will not be supported in the future. In the future,
cursors returned from related queries will be empty.

Constants for the data table, which contains data points tied to a raw
contact.  Each row of the data table is typically used to store a single
piece of contact
information (such as a phone number) and its
associated metadata (such as whether it is a work or home number).

Data kinds
 Data is a generic table that can hold any kind of contact data. The kind of data stored in a given row is specified by the row's DataColumns.MIMETYPE value, which determines the meaning of the generic columns DataColumns.DATA1 through DataColumns.DATA15. For example, if the data kind is Phone.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE, then the column DataColumns.DATA1 stores the phone number, but if the data kind is Email.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE, then DataColumns.DATA1 stores the email address. Sync adapters and applications can introduce their own data kinds. 
 ContactsContract defines a small number of pre-defined data kinds, e.g. Phone, Email etc. As a convenience, these classes define data kind specific aliases for DATA1 etc. For example, Phone.NUMBER is the same as Data.DATA1. 
 DataColumns.DATA1 is an indexed column and should be used for the data element that is expected to be most frequently used in query selections. For example, in the case of a row representing email addresses DataColumns.DATA1 should probably be used for the email address itself, while DataColumns.DATA2 etc can be used for auxiliary information like type of email address. 

 By convention, DataColumns.DATA15 is used for storing BLOBs (binary data). 

The sync adapter for a given account type must correctly handle every data type
used in the corresponding raw contacts.  Otherwise it could result in lost or
corrupted data.


Similarly, you should refrain from introducing new kinds of data for an other
party's account types. For example, if you add a data row for
"favorite song" to a raw contact owned by a Google account, it will not
get synced to the server, because the Google sync adapter does not know
how to handle this data kind. Thus new data kinds are typically
introduced along with new account types, i.e. new sync adapters.

Batch operations
 Data rows can be inserted/updated/deleted using the traditional ContentResolver.insert, ContentResolver.update and ContentResolver.delete methods, however the newer mechanism based on a batch of ContentProviderOperation will prove to be a better choice in almost all cases. All operations in a batch are executed in a single transaction, which ensures that the phone-side and server-side state of a raw contact are always consistent. Also, the batch-based approach is far more efficient: not only are the database operations faster when executed in a single transaction, but also sending a batch of commands to the content provider saves a lot of time on context switching between your process and the process in which the content provider runs. 

The flip side of using batched operations is that a large batch may lock
up the database for a long time preventing other applications from
accessing data and potentially causing ANRs ("Application Not Responding"
dialogs.)

 To avoid such lockups of the database, make sure to insert "yield points" in the batch. A yield point indicates to the content provider that before executing the next operation it can commit the changes that have already been made, yield to other requests, open another transaction and continue processing operations. A yield point will not automatically commit the transaction, but only if there is another request waiting on the database. Normally a sync adapter should insert a yield point at the beginning of each raw contact operation sequence in the batch. See Builder.withYieldAllowed(boolean). 
Operations

Insert

 An individual data row can be inserted using the traditional ContentResolver.insert(Uri, ContentValues) method. Multiple rows should always be inserted as a batch. 

An example of a traditional insert:
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID, rawContactId);
values.put(Data.MIMETYPE, Phone.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);
values.put(Phone.NUMBER, "1-800-GOOG-411");
values.put(Phone.TYPE, Phone.TYPE_CUSTOM);
values.put(Phone.LABEL, "free directory assistance");
Uri dataUri = getContentResolver().insert(Data.CONTENT_URI, values);


The same done using ContentProviderOperations:
ArrayList<ContentProviderOperation> ops =
         new ArrayList<ContentProviderOperation>();
ops.add(ContentProviderOperation.newInsert(Data.CONTENT_URI)
         .withValue(Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID, rawContactId)
         .withValue(Data.MIMETYPE, Phone.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE)
         .withValue(Phone.NUMBER, "1-800-GOOG-411")
         .withValue(Phone.TYPE, Phone.TYPE_CUSTOM)
         .withValue(Phone.LABEL, "free directory assistance")
         .build());
getContentResolver().applyBatch(ContactsContract.AUTHORITY, ops);


Update


Just as with insert, update can be done incrementally or as a batch,
the batch mode being the preferred method:
ArrayList<ContentProviderOperation> ops =
         new ArrayList<ContentProviderOperation>();
ops.add(ContentProviderOperation.newUpdate(Data.CONTENT_URI)
         .withSelection(Data._ID + "=?", new String[]{String.valueOf(dataId)})
         .withValue(Email.DATA, "somebody@android.com")
         .build());
getContentResolver().applyBatch(ContactsContract.AUTHORITY, ops);



Delete

 Just as with insert and update, deletion can be done either using the ContentResolver.delete method or using a ContentProviderOperation: 
ArrayList<ContentProviderOperation> ops =
         new ArrayList<ContentProviderOperation>();
ops.add(ContentProviderOperation.newDelete(Data.CONTENT_URI)
         .withSelection(Data._ID + "=?", new String[]{String.valueOf(dataId)})
         .build());
getContentResolver().applyBatch(ContactsContract.AUTHORITY, ops);



Query



Finding all Data of a given type for a given contact

Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(Data.CONTENT_URI,
         new String[] {Data._ID, Phone.NUMBER, Phone.TYPE, Phone.LABEL},
         Data.CONTACT_ID + "=?" + " AND "
                 + Data.MIMETYPE + "='" + Phone.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE + "'",
         new String[] {String.valueOf(contactId)}, null);




Finding all Data of a given type for a given raw contact

Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(Data.CONTENT_URI,
         new String[] {Data._ID, Phone.NUMBER, Phone.TYPE, Phone.LABEL},
         Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID + "=?" + " AND "
                 + Data.MIMETYPE + "='" + Phone.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE + "'",
         new String[] {String.valueOf(rawContactId)}, null);


Finding all Data for a given raw contact
 Most sync adapters will want to read all data rows for a raw contact along with the raw contact itself. For that you should use the RawContactsEntity. See also RawContacts. 




Columns
 Many columns are available via a CONTENT_URI query. For best performance you should explicitly specify a projection to only those columns that you need. 


Data


long
BaseColumns._ID
read-only
Row ID. Sync adapter should try to preserve row IDs during updates. In other words,
it would be a bad idea to delete and reinsert a data row. A sync adapter should
always do an update instead.


String
DataColumns.MIMETYPE
read/write-once

The MIME type of the item represented by this row. Examples of common
MIME types are:

StructuredName.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE
Phone.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE
Email.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE
Photo.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE
Organization.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE
Im.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE
Nickname.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE
Note.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE
StructuredPostal.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE
GroupMembership.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE
Website.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE
Event.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE
Relation.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE
SipAddress.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE





long
DataColumns.RAW_CONTACT_ID
read/write-once
The id of the row in the RawContacts table that this data belongs to.


int
DataColumns.IS_PRIMARY
read/write
Whether this is the primary entry of its kind for the raw contact it belongs to.
"1" if true, "0" if false.



int
DataColumns.IS_SUPER_PRIMARY
read/write
Whether this is the primary entry of its kind for the aggregate
contact it belongs to. Any data record that is "super primary" must
also be "primary".  For example, the super-primary entry may be
interpreted as the default contact value of its kind (for example,
the default phone number to use for the contact).


int
DataColumns.DATA_VERSION
read-only
The version of this data record. Whenever the data row changes
the version goes up. This value is monotonically increasing.


Any type
 DataColumns.DATA1
 DataColumns.DATA2
 DataColumns.DATA3
 DataColumns.DATA4
 DataColumns.DATA5
 DataColumns.DATA6
 DataColumns.DATA7
 DataColumns.DATA8
 DataColumns.DATA9
 DataColumns.DATA10
 DataColumns.DATA11
 DataColumns.DATA12
 DataColumns.DATA13
 DataColumns.DATA14
 DataColumns.DATA15 
read/write

 Generic data columns. The meaning of each column is determined by the DataColumns.MIMETYPE. By convention, DataColumns.DATA15 is used for storing BLOBs (binary data). 
 Data columns whose meaning is not explicitly defined for a given MIMETYPE should not be used. There is no guarantee that any sync adapter will preserve them. Sync adapters themselves should not use such columns either, but should instead use DataColumns.SYNC1-DataColumns.SYNC4. 



Any type
 DataColumns.SYNC1
 DataColumns.SYNC2
 DataColumns.SYNC3
 DataColumns.SYNC4 
read/write
Generic columns for use by sync adapters. For example, a Photo row
may store the image URL in SYNC1, a status (not loaded, loading, loaded, error)
in SYNC2, server-side version number in SYNC3 and error code in SYNC4.



Some columns from the most recent associated status update are also available
through an implicit join.



Join with StatusUpdates


int
StatusColumns.PRESENCE
read-only
IM presence status linked to this data row. Compare with ContactStatusColumns.CONTACT_PRESENCE, which contains the contact's presence across all IM rows. See StatusUpdates for individual status definitions. The provider may choose not to store this value in persistent storage. The expectation is that presence status will be updated on a regular basis. 


String
StatusColumns.STATUS
read-only
Latest status update linked with this data row.


long
StatusColumns.STATUS_TIMESTAMP
read-only
The absolute time in milliseconds when the latest status was
inserted/updated for this data row.


String
StatusColumns.STATUS_RES_PACKAGE
read-only
The package containing resources for this status: label and icon.


long
StatusColumns.STATUS_LABEL
read-only
The resource ID of the label describing the source of status update linked to this data row. This resource is scoped by the StatusColumns.STATUS_RES_PACKAGE.


long
StatusColumns.STATUS_ICON
read-only
The resource ID of the icon for the source of the status update linked to this data row. This resource is scoped by the StatusColumns.STATUS_RES_PACKAGE.



Some columns from the associated raw contact are also available through an
implicit join.  The other columns are excluded as uninteresting in this
context.



Join with RawContacts


long
RawContactsColumns.CONTACT_ID
read-only
The id of the row in the Contacts table that this data belongs to.


int
RawContactsColumns.AGGREGATION_MODE
read-only
See RawContacts.


int
RawContactsColumns.DELETED
read-only
See RawContacts.


 The ID column for the associated aggregated contact table Contacts is available via the implicit join to the RawContacts table, see above. The remaining columns from this table are also available, through an implicit join. This facilitates lookup by the value of a single data element, such as the email address. 


Join with Contacts


String
ContactsColumns.LOOKUP_KEY
read-only

String
ContactsColumns.DISPLAY_NAME
read-only

 It supports the same semantics as CONTENT_FILTER_URI and returns the same columns. If the device has no corp profile that is linked to the current profile, it behaves in the exact same way as CONTENT_FILTER_URI. If there is a corp profile linked to the current profile, it first queries against the personal contact database, and if no matching contacts are found there, then queries against the corp contacts database. 

If a result is from the corp profile, it makes the following changes to the data:

    
 ContactsColumns.PHOTO_THUMBNAIL_URI and ContactsColumns.PHOTO_URI will be rewritten to special URIs. Use ContentResolver.openAssetFileDescriptor or its siblings to load pictures from them. ContactsColumns.PHOTO_ID and ContactsColumns.PHOTO_FILE_ID will be set to null. Do not use them. 
    
 Corp contacts will get artificial BaseColumns._IDs. In order to tell whether a contact is from the corp profile, use Contacts.isEnterpriseContactId(long). 
    
 Corp contacts will get artificial ContactsColumns.LOOKUP_KEYs too. 
    

    Returned work contact IDs and lookup keys are not accepted in places that not
    explicitly say to accept them.
    

 A contact lookup URL built by Contacts.getLookupUri(long, String) with an BaseColumns._ID and a ContactsColumns.LOOKUP_KEY returned by this API can be passed to QuickContact.showQuickContact even if a contact is from the corp profile.

 A status update is linked to a Data row and captures the user's latest status update via the corresponding source, e.g. "Having lunch" via "Google Talk". 
 There are two ways a status update can be inserted: by explicitly linking it to a Data row using PresenceColumns.DATA_ID or indirectly linking it to a data row using a combination of PresenceColumns.PROTOCOL (or PresenceColumns.CUSTOM_PROTOCOL) and PresenceColumns.IM_HANDLE. There is no difference between insert and update, you can use either. 
 Inserting or updating a status update for the user's profile requires either using the PresenceColumns.DATA_ID to identify the data row to attach the update to, or PROFILE_CONTENT_URI to ensure that the change is scoped to the profile. 
 You cannot use ContentResolver.update to change a status, but ContentResolver.insert will replace the latests status if it already exists. 
 Use ContentResolver.bulkInsert(Uri, ContentValues[]) to insert/update statuses for multiple contacts at once. 
Columns


StatusUpdates


long
PresenceColumns.DATA_ID
read/write
Reference to the BaseColumns._ID entry that owns this presence. If this field is not specified, the provider will attempt to find a data row that matches the PresenceColumns.PROTOCOL (or PresenceColumns.CUSTOM_PROTOCOL) and PresenceColumns.IM_HANDLE columns. 


long
PresenceColumns.PROTOCOL
read/write
See Im for a list of defined protocol constants.


String
PresenceColumns.CUSTOM_PROTOCOL
read/write
Name of the custom protocol. Should be supplied along with the PresenceColumns.PROTOCOL value Im.PROTOCOL_CUSTOM. Should be null or omitted if PresenceColumns.PROTOCOL value is not Im.PROTOCOL_CUSTOM.


String
PresenceColumns.IM_HANDLE
read/write
 The IM handle the presence item is for. The handle is scoped to PresenceColumns.PROTOCOL.


String
PresenceColumns.IM_ACCOUNT
read/write
The IM account for the local user that the presence data came from.


int
StatusColumns.PRESENCE
read/write
Contact IM presence status. The allowed values are:


StatusColumns.OFFLINE
StatusColumns.INVISIBLE
StatusColumns.AWAY
StatusColumns.IDLE
StatusColumns.DO_NOT_DISTURB
StatusColumns.AVAILABLE



Since presence status is inherently volatile, the content provider
may choose not to store this field in long-term storage.




int
StatusColumns.CHAT_CAPABILITY
read/write
Contact IM chat compatibility value. The allowed values combinations of the following
flags. If None of these flags is set, the device can only do text messaging.


StatusColumns.CAPABILITY_HAS_VIDEO
StatusColumns.CAPABILITY_HAS_VOICE
StatusColumns.CAPABILITY_HAS_CAMERA



Since chat compatibility is inherently volatile as the contact's availability moves from
one device to another, the content provider may choose not to store this field in long-term
storage.




String
StatusColumns.STATUS
read/write
Contact's latest status update, e.g. "having toast for breakfast"


long
StatusColumns.STATUS_TIMESTAMP
read/write
The absolute time in milliseconds when the status was
entered by the user. If this value is not provided, the provider will follow
this logic: if there was no prior status update, the value will be left as null.
If there was a prior status update, the provider will default this field
to the current time.


String
StatusColumns.STATUS_RES_PACKAGE
read/write
 The package containing resources for this status: label and icon.


long
StatusColumns.STATUS_LABEL
read/write
The resource ID of the label describing the source of contact status, e.g. "Google Talk". This resource is scoped by the StatusColumns.STATUS_RES_PACKAGE.


long
StatusColumns.STATUS_ICON
read/write
The resource ID of the icon for the source of contact status. This resource is scoped by the StatusColumns.STATUS_RES_PACKAGE.

URI used for enterprise email lookup.
 It supports the same semantics as CONTENT_LOOKUP_URI and returns the same columns. If the device has no corp profile that is linked to the current profile, it behaves in the exact same way as CONTENT_LOOKUP_URI. If there is a corp profile linked to the current profile, it first queries against the personal contact database, and if no matching contacts are found there, then queries against the corp contacts database. 

If a result is from the corp profile, it makes the following changes to the data:

    
 ContactsColumns.PHOTO_THUMBNAIL_URI and ContactsColumns.PHOTO_URI will be rewritten to special URIs. Use ContentResolver.openAssetFileDescriptor or its siblings to load pictures from them. ContactsColumns.PHOTO_ID and ContactsColumns.PHOTO_FILE_ID will be set to null. Do not use them. 
    
 Corp contacts will get artificial RawContactsColumns.CONTACT_IDs. In order to tell whether a contact is from the corp profile, use Contacts.isEnterpriseContactId(long). 
    
 Corp contacts will get artificial ContactsColumns.LOOKUP_KEYs too. 
    

    Returned work contact IDs and lookup keys are not accepted in places that not
    explicitly say to accept them.
    

 A contact lookup URL built by Contacts.getLookupUri(long, String) with an BaseColumns._ID and a ContactsColumns.LOOKUP_KEY returned by this API can be passed to QuickContact.showQuickContact even if a contact is from the corp profile.

A data kind representing a photo for the contact.

 Some sync adapters will choose to download photos in a separate pass. A common pattern is to use columns DataColumns.SYNC1 through DataColumns.SYNC4 to store temporary data, e.g. the image URL or ID, state of download, server-side version of the image. It is allowed for the PHOTO to be null. 
 You can use all columns defined for Data as well as the following aliases.

 This URI allows the ContactsProvider to return a unified result for "callable" data that users can use for calling purposes. Phone and SipAddress are the current examples for "callable", but may be expanded to the other types. 
 Each returned row may have a different MIMETYPE and thus different interpretation for each column. For example the meaning for Phone's type is different than SipAddress's.

# 


Groups


long
BaseColumns._ID
read-only
Row ID. Sync adapter should try to preserve row IDs during updates.
In other words, it would be a really bad idea to delete and reinsert a
group. A sync adapter should always do an update instead.

String
GroupsColumns.DATA_SET
read/write-once

 The data set within the account that this group belongs to. This allows multiple sync adapters for the same account type to distinguish between each others' group data. The combination of SyncColumns.ACCOUNT_TYPE, SyncColumns.ACCOUNT_NAME, and GroupsColumns.DATA_SET identifies a set of data that is associated with a single sync adapter. 

This is empty by default, and is completely optional.  It only needs to
be populated if multiple sync adapters are entering distinct data for
the same account type and account name.


It should be set at the time the group is inserted and never changed
afterwards.




String
GroupsColumns.TITLE
read/write
The display title of this group.


String
GroupsColumns.NOTES
read/write
Notes about the group.


String
GroupsColumns.SYSTEM_ID
read/write
The ID of this group if it is a System Group, i.e. a group that has a
special meaning to the sync adapter, null otherwise.


int
GroupsColumns.SUMMARY_COUNT
read-only
The total number of Contacts that have GroupMembership in this group. Read-only value that is only present when querying CONTENT_SUMMARY_URI.


int
GroupsColumns.SUMMARY_WITH_PHONES
read-only
The total number of Contacts that have both GroupMembership in this group, and also have phone numbers. Read-only value that is only present when querying CONTENT_SUMMARY_URI.


int
GroupsColumns.GROUP_VISIBLE
read-only
Flag indicating if the contacts belonging to this group should be
visible in any user interface. Allowed values: 0 and 1.


int
GroupsColumns.DELETED
read/write
The "deleted" flag: "0" by default, "1" if the row has been marked for deletion. When ContentResolver.delete is called on a group, it is marked for deletion. The sync adaptor deletes the group on the server and then calls ContactResolver.delete once more, this time setting the the ContactsContract.CALLER_IS_SYNCADAPTER query parameter to finalize the data removal.


int
GroupsColumns.SHOULD_SYNC
read/write
Whether this group should be synced if the SYNC_EVERYTHING settings
is false for this group's account.

API allowing applications to send usage information for each Data row to the Contacts Provider. Applications can also clear all usage information. 
Caution: As of January 7, 2019, this class is obsolete. For
more information, see the
Contacts Provider
page.
 With the feedback, Contacts Provider may return more contextually appropriate results for Data listing, typically supplied with Contacts.CONTENT_FILTER_URI, Email.CONTENT_FILTER_URI, Phone.CONTENT_FILTER_URI, and users can benefit from better ranked (sorted) lists in applications that show auto-complete list. 


There is no guarantee for how this feedback is used, or even whether it is used at all.
The ranking algorithm will make best efforts to use the feedback data, but the exact
implementation, the storage data structures as well as the resulting sort order is device
and version specific and can change over time.

 When updating usage information, users of this API need to use ContentResolver.update(Uri, ContentValues, String, String[]) with a Uri constructed from FEEDBACK_URI. The Uri must contain one or more data id(s) as its last path. They also need to append a query parameter to the Uri, to specify the type of the communication, which enables the Contacts Provider to differentiate between kinds of interactions using the same contact data field (for example a phone number can be used to make phone calls or send SMS). 
 Selection and selectionArgs are ignored and must be set to null. To get data ids, you may need to call ContentResolver.query(Uri, String[], String, String[], String) toward Data.CONTENT_URI. 
 ContentResolver.update(Uri, ContentValues, String, String[]) returns a positive integer when successful, and returns 0 if no contact with that id was found. 

Example:
Uri uri = DataUsageFeedback.FEEDBACK_URI.buildUpon()
        .appendPath(TextUtils.join(",", dataIds))
        .appendQueryParameter(DataUsageFeedback.USAGE_TYPE,
                DataUsageFeedback.USAGE_TYPE_CALL)
        .build();
boolean successful = resolver.update(uri, new ContentValues(), null, null) > 0;



Applications can also clear all usage information with:
boolean successful = resolver.delete(DataUsageFeedback.DELETE_USAGE_URI, null, null) > 0;

     * With the feedback, Contacts Provider may return more contextually appropriate results for
     * Data listing, typically supplied with
     * {@link ContactsContract.Contacts#CONTENT_FILTER_URI},
     * {@link ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email#CONTENT_FILTER_URI},
     * {@link ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone#CONTENT_FILTER_URI}, and users can benefit
     * from better ranked (sorted) lists in applications that show auto-complete list.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * There is no guarantee for how this feedback is used, or even whether it is used at all.
     * The ranking algorithm will make best efforts to use the feedback data, but the exact
     * implementation, the storage data structures as well as the resulting sort order is device
     * and version specific and can change over time.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * When updating usage information, users of this API need to use
     * {@link ContentResolver#update(Uri, ContentValues, String, String[])} with a Uri constructed
     * from {@link DataUsageFeedback#FEEDBACK_URI}. The Uri must contain one or more data id(s) as
     * its last path. They also need to append a query parameter to the Uri, to specify the type of
     * the communication, which enables the Contacts Provider to differentiate between kinds of
     * interactions using the same contact data field (for example a phone number can be used to
     * make phone calls or send SMS).
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * Selection and selectionArgs are ignored and must be set to null. To get data ids,
     * you may need to call {@link ContentResolver#query(Uri, String[], String, String[], String)}
     * toward {@link Data#CONTENT_URI}.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * {@link ContentResolver#update(Uri, ContentValues, String, String[])} returns a positive
     * integer when successful, and returns 0 if no contact with that id was found.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * Example:
     * <pre>
     * Uri uri = DataUsageFeedback.FEEDBACK_URI.buildUpon()
     *         .appendPath(TextUtils.join(",", dataIds))
     *         .appendQueryParameter(DataUsageFeedback.USAGE_TYPE,
     *                 DataUsageFeedback.USAGE_TYPE_CALL)
     *         .build();
     * boolean successful = resolver.update(uri, new ContentValues(), null, null) > 0;
     * </pre>
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * Applications can also clear all usage information with:
     * <pre>
     * boolean successful = resolver.delete(DataUsageFeedback.DELETE_USAGE_URI, null, null) > 0;

Contact-specific information about whether or not a contact has been pinned by the user
at a particular position within the system contact application's user interface.


This pinning information can be used by individual applications to customize how
they order particular pinned contacts. For example, a Dialer application could
use pinned information to order user-pinned contacts in a top row of favorites.


It is possible for two or more contacts to occupy the same pinned position (due
to aggregation and sync), so this pinning information should be used on a best-effort
basis to order contacts in-application rather than an absolute guide on where a contact
should be positioned. Contacts returned by the ContactsProvider will not be ordered based
on this information, so it is up to the client application to reorder these contacts within
their own UI adhering to (or ignoring as appropriate) information stored in the pinned
column.

 By default, unpinned contacts will have a pinned position of UNPINNED. Client-provided pinned positions can be positive integers that are greater than 1.

Activity Action: Initiate a message to someone by voice. The message could be text,
audio, video or image(photo). This action supports messaging with a specific contact
regardless of the underlying messaging protocol used.
 The action could be originated from the Voice Assistant as a voice interaction. In such case, a receiving activity that supports Intent.CATEGORY_VOICE could check return value of Activity.isVoiceInteractionRoot before proceeding. By doing this check the activity verifies that the action indeed was initiated by Voice Assistant and could send a message right away, without any further input from the user. This allows for a smooth user experience when sending a message by voice. Note: this activity must also support the Intent.CATEGORY_DEFAULT so it can be found by VoiceInteractionSession.startVoiceActivity. 
 When the action was not initiated by Voice Assistant or when the receiving activity does not support Intent.CATEGORY_VOICE, the activity must confirm with the user before sending the message (because in this case it is unknown which app sent the intent, it could be malicious). 
 To allow the Voice Assistant to help users with contacts disambiguation, the messaging app may choose to integrate with the Contacts Provider. You will need to specify a new MIME type in order to store your app’s unique contact IDs and optional human readable labels in the Data table. The Voice Assistant needs to know this MIME type and SyncColumns.ACCOUNT_TYPE that you are using in order to provide the smooth contact disambiguation user experience. The following convention should be met when performing such integration: 

This activity should have a string meta-data field associated with it, METADATA_ACCOUNT_TYPE, which defines SyncColumns.ACCOUNT_TYPE for your Contacts Provider implementation. The account type should be globally unique, for example you can use your app package name as the account type.
This activity should have a string meta-data field associated with it, METADATA_MIMETYPE, which defines DataColumns.MIMETYPE for your Contacts Provider implementation. For example, you can use "vnd.android.cursor.item/vnd.{$app_package_name}.profile" as MIME type.
When filling Data table row for METADATA_MIMETYPE, column DataColumns.DATA1 should store the unique contact ID as understood by the app. This value will be used in the EXTRA_RECIPIENT_CONTACT_CHAT_ID.
Optionally, when filling Data table row for METADATA_MIMETYPE, column DataColumns.DATA3 could store a human readable label for the ID. For example it could be phone number or human readable username/user_id like "a_super_cool_user_name". This label may be shown below the Contact Name by the Voice Assistant as the user completes the voice action. If DATA3 is empty, the ID in DATA1 may be shown instead.
Note: Do not use DATA3 to store the Contact Name. The Voice Assistant will
already get the Contact Name from the RawContact’s display_name.
Note: Some apps may choose to use phone number as the unique contact ID in DATA1.
If this applies to you and you’d like phone number to be shown below the Contact Name by
the Voice Assistant, then you may choose to leave DATA3 empty.
Note: If your app also uses DATA3 to display contact details in the Contacts App,
make sure it does not include prefix text such as "Message +" or "Free Message
+", etc. If you must show the prefix text in the Contacts App, please use a
different DATA# column, and update your contacts.xml to point to this new column. 

Everytime the user sends a message to a contact, your app may choose to update the ContactOptionsColumns.TIMES_CONTACTED entry through DataUsageFeedback class. Doing this will allow Voice Assistant to bias speech recognition to contacts frequently contacted, this is particularly useful for contact names that are hard to pronounce.

If the app chooses not to integrate with the Contacts Provider (in particular, when
either METADATA_ACCOUNT_TYPE or METADATA_MIMETYPE field is missing), Voice Assistant
will use existing phone number entries as contact ID's for such app.
 Input: Intent.getType is the MIME type of the data being sent. The intent sender will always put the concrete mime type in the intent type, like "text/plain" or "audio/wav" for example. If the MIME type is "text/plain", message to sent will be provided via Intent.EXTRA_TEXT as a styled CharSequence. Otherwise, the message content will be supplied through Intent.setClipData(ClipData) as a content provider URI(s). In the latter case, EXTRA_TEXT could still be supplied optionally; for example, for audio messages ClipData will contain URI of a recording and EXTRA_TEXT could contain the text transcription of this recording. 
 The message can have n recipients. The n-th recipient of the message will be provided as n-th elements of EXTRA_RECIPIENT_CONTACT_URI, EXTRA_RECIPIENT_CONTACT_CHAT_ID and EXTRA_RECIPIENT_CONTACT_NAME (as a consequence, EXTRA_RECIPIENT_CONTACT_URI, EXTRA_RECIPIENT_CONTACT_CHAT_ID and EXTRA_RECIPIENT_CONTACT_NAME should all be of length n).

         * Activity Action: Initiate a message to someone by voice. The message could be text,
         * audio, video or image(photo). This action supports messaging with a specific contact
         * regardless of the underlying messaging protocol used.
         * <p>
         * The action could be originated from the Voice Assistant as a voice interaction. In such
         * case, a receiving activity that supports {@link android.content.Intent#CATEGORY_VOICE}
         * could check return value of {@link android.app.Activity#isVoiceInteractionRoot} before
         * proceeding. By doing this check the activity verifies that the action indeed was
         * initiated by Voice Assistant and could send a message right away, without any further
         * input from the user. This allows for a smooth user experience when sending a message by
         * voice. Note: this activity must also support the {@link
         * android.content.Intent#CATEGORY_DEFAULT} so it can be found by {@link
         * android.service.voice.VoiceInteractionSession#startVoiceActivity}.
         * <p>
         * When the action was not initiated by Voice Assistant or when the receiving activity does
         * not support {@link android.content.Intent#CATEGORY_VOICE}, the activity must confirm
         * with the user before sending the message (because in this case it is unknown which app
         * sent the intent, it could be malicious).
         * <p>
         * To allow the Voice Assistant to help users with contacts disambiguation, the messaging
         * app may choose to integrate with the Contacts Provider. You will need to specify a new
         * MIME type in order to store your app’s unique contact IDs and optional human readable
         * labels in the Data table. The Voice Assistant needs to know this MIME type and {@link
         * RawContacts#ACCOUNT_TYPE} that you are using in order to provide the smooth contact
         * disambiguation user experience. The following convention should be met when performing
         * such integration:
         * <ul>
         * <li>This activity should have a string meta-data field associated with it, {@link
         * #METADATA_ACCOUNT_TYPE}, which defines {@link RawContacts#ACCOUNT_TYPE} for your Contacts
         * Provider implementation. The account type should be globally unique, for example you can
         * use your app package name as the account type.</li>
         * <li>This activity should have a string meta-data field associated with it, {@link
         * #METADATA_MIMETYPE}, which defines {@link DataColumns#MIMETYPE} for your Contacts
         * Provider implementation. For example, you can use
         * "vnd.android.cursor.item/vnd.{$app_package_name}.profile" as MIME type.</li>
         * <li>When filling Data table row for METADATA_MIMETYPE, column {@link DataColumns#DATA1}
         * should store the unique contact ID as understood by the app. This value will be used in
         * the {@link #EXTRA_RECIPIENT_CONTACT_CHAT_ID}.</li>
         * <li>Optionally, when filling Data table row for METADATA_MIMETYPE, column {@link
         * DataColumns#DATA3} could store a human readable label for the ID. For example it could be
         * phone number or human readable username/user_id like "a_super_cool_user_name". This label
         * may be shown below the Contact Name by the Voice Assistant as the user completes the
         * voice action. If DATA3 is empty, the ID in DATA1 may be shown instead.</li>
         * <li><em>Note: Do not use DATA3 to store the Contact Name. The Voice Assistant will
         * already get the Contact Name from the RawContact’s display_name.</em></li>
         * <li><em>Note: Some apps may choose to use phone number as the unique contact ID in DATA1.
         * If this applies to you and you’d like phone number to be shown below the Contact Name by
         * the Voice Assistant, then you may choose to leave DATA3 empty.</em></li>
         * <li><em>Note: If your app also uses DATA3 to display contact details in the Contacts App,
         * make sure it does not include prefix text such as "Message +<phone>" or "Free Message
         * +<phone>", etc. If you must show the prefix text in the Contacts App, please use a
         * different DATA# column, and update your contacts.xml to point to this new column. </em>
         * </li>
         * <li>Everytime the user sends a message to a contact, your app may choose to update the
         * {@link ContactOptionsColumns#TIMES_CONTACTED} entry through DataUsageFeedback class.
         * Doing this will allow Voice Assistant to bias speech recognition to contacts frequently
         * contacted, this is particularly useful for contact names that are hard to pronounce.</li>
         * </ul>
         * If the app chooses not to integrate with the Contacts Provider (in particular, when
         * either METADATA_ACCOUNT_TYPE or METADATA_MIMETYPE field is missing), Voice Assistant
         * will use existing phone number entries as contact ID's for such app.
         * <p>
         * Input: {@link android.content.Intent#getType} is the MIME type of the data being sent.
         * The intent sender will always put the concrete mime type in the intent type, like
         * "text/plain" or "audio/wav" for example. If the MIME type is "text/plain", message to
         * sent will be provided via {@link android.content.Intent#EXTRA_TEXT} as a styled
         * CharSequence. Otherwise, the message content will be supplied through {@link
         * android.content.Intent#setClipData(ClipData)} as a content provider URI(s). In the latter
         * case, EXTRA_TEXT could still be supplied optionally; for example, for audio messages
         * ClipData will contain URI of a recording and EXTRA_TEXT could contain the text
         * transcription of this recording.
         * <p>
         * The message can have n recipients. The n-th recipient of the message will be provided as
         * n-th elements of {@link #EXTRA_RECIPIENT_CONTACT_URI}, {@link
         * #EXTRA_RECIPIENT_CONTACT_CHAT_ID} and {@link #EXTRA_RECIPIENT_CONTACT_NAME} (as a
         * consequence, EXTRA_RECIPIENT_CONTACT_URI, EXTRA_RECIPIENT_CONTACT_CHAT_ID and
         * EXTRA_RECIPIENT_CONTACT_NAME should all be of length n). If neither of these 3 elements
         * is provided (e.g. all 3 are null) for the recipient or if the information provided is
         * ambiguous then the activity should prompt the user for the recipient to send the message
         * to.

The extra field that allows the client to supply multiple rows of arbitrary data for a single contact created using the Intent.ACTION_INSERT or edited using Intent.ACTION_EDIT. It is an ArrayList of ContentValues, one per data row. Supplying this extra is similar to inserting multiple rows into the Data table, except the user gets a chance to see and edit them before saving. Each ContentValues object must have a value for DataColumns.MIMETYPE. If supplied values are not visible in the editor UI, they will be dropped. Duplicate data will dropped. Some fields like Email.TYPE may be automatically adjusted to comply with the constraints of the specific account type. For example, an Exchange contact can only have one phone numbers of type Home, so the contact editor may choose a different type for this phone number to avoid dropping the valueable part of the row, which is the phone number. 

Example:
 ArrayList<ContentValues> data = new ArrayList<ContentValues>();
 ContentValues row1 = new ContentValues();
 row1.put(Data.MIMETYPE, Organization.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);
 row1.put(Organization.COMPANY, "Android");
 data.add(row1);
 ContentValues row2 = new ContentValues();
 row2.put(Data.MIMETYPE, Email.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);
 row2.put(Email.TYPE, Email.TYPE_CUSTOM);
