Contacts

Kotlin |Java

class Contacts : BaseColumns, ContactsContract.ContactsColumns, ContactsContract.ContactOptionsColumns, ContactsContract.ContactNameColumns, ContactsContract.ContactStatusColumns

kotlin.Any
↳	android.provider.ContactsContract.Contacts

Constants for the contacts table, which contains a record per aggregate of raw contacts representing the same person.

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 RawContacts#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 RawContacts#CONTACT_ID column of the newly inserted raw contact.

Update

Only certain columns of Contact are modifiable: STARRED, CUSTOM_RINGTONE, 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 ContactsContract.Data table. The result will contain contact ID, name etc.

Columns

Contacts
long	_ID	read-only	Row ID. Consider using LOOKUP_KEY instead.
String	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	PHOTO_ID	read-only	Reference to the row in the ContactsContract.Data table holding the photo. That row has the mime type CommonDataKinds.Photo#CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE. The value of this field is computed automatically based on the CommonDataKinds.Photo#IS_SUPER_PRIMARY field of the data rows of that mime type.
long	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	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	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	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	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	CUSTOM_RINGTONE	read/write	A custom ringtone associated with a contact. Typically this is the URI returned by an activity launched with the android.media.RingtoneManager#ACTION_RINGTONE_PICKER intent.
int	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	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	CONTACT_STATUS	read-only	Contact's latest status update. Automatically computed as the latest of all constituent raw contacts' status updates.
long	CONTACT_STATUS_TIMESTAMP	read-only	The absolute time in milliseconds when the latest status was inserted/updated.
String	CONTACT_STATUS_RES_PACKAGE	read-only	The package containing resources for this status: label and icon.
long	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 CONTACT_STATUS_RES_PACKAGE.
long	CONTACT_STATUS_ICON	read-only	The resource ID of the icon for the source of contact status. This resource is scoped by the CONTACT_STATUS_RES_PACKAGE.

Inherited constants
From class ContactStatusColumns String CONTACT_CHAT_CAPABILITY Contact Chat Capabilities. See StatusUpdates for individual definitions. Type: NUMBER String CONTACT_PRESENCE Contact presence status. See StatusUpdates for individual status definitions. Type: NUMBER String CONTACT_STATUS Contact's latest status update. Type: TEXT String CONTACT_STATUS_ICON The resource ID of the icon for the source of contact status. This resource is scoped by the CONTACT_STATUS_RES_PACKAGE. Type: NUMBER String CONTACT_STATUS_LABEL The resource ID of the label describing the source of contact status, e.g. "Google Talk". This resource is scoped by the CONTACT_STATUS_RES_PACKAGE. Type: NUMBER String CONTACT_STATUS_RES_PACKAGE The package containing resources for this status: label and icon. Type: TEXT String CONTACT_STATUS_TIMESTAMP The absolute time in milliseconds when the latest status was inserted/updated. Type: NUMBER
From class ContactsColumns String CONTACT_LAST_UPDATED_TIMESTAMP Timestamp (milliseconds since epoch) of when this contact was last updated. This includes updates to all data associated with this contact including raw contacts. Any modification (including deletes and inserts) of underlying contact data are also reflected in this timestamp. String DISPLAY_NAME The display name for the contact. Type: TEXT String HAS_PHONE_NUMBER An indicator of whether this contact has at least one phone number. "1" if there is at least one phone number, "0" otherwise. Type: INTEGER String IN_DEFAULT_DIRECTORY Flag that reflects whether the contact exists inside the default directory. Ie, whether the contact is designed to only be visible outside search. String IN_VISIBLE_GROUP Flag that reflects the Groups#GROUP_VISIBLE state of any CommonDataKinds.GroupMembership for this contact. String IS_USER_PROFILE Flag that reflects whether this contact represents the user's personal profile entry. String LOOKUP_KEY 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. String NAME_RAW_CONTACT_ID Reference to the row in the RawContacts table holding the contact name. Type: INTEGER REFERENCES raw_contacts(_id) String PHOTO_FILE_ID Photo file ID of the full-size photo. If present, this will be used to populate PHOTO_URI. The ID can also be used with ContactsContract.DisplayPhoto#CONTENT_URI to create a URI to the photo. If this is present, PHOTO_ID is also guaranteed to be populated. Type: INTEGER String PHOTO_ID Reference to the row in the data table holding the photo. A photo can be referred to either by ID (this field) or by URI (see PHOTO_THUMBNAIL_URI and PHOTO_URI). If PHOTO_ID is null, consult PHOTO_URI or PHOTO_THUMBNAIL_URI, which is a more generic mechanism for referencing the contact photo, especially for contacts returned by non-local directories (see Directory). Type: INTEGER REFERENCES data(_id) String PHOTO_THUMBNAIL_URI A URI that can be used to retrieve a thumbnail of the contact's photo. A photo can be referred to either by a URI (this field or PHOTO_URI) or by ID (see PHOTO_ID). If PHOTO_ID is not null, PHOTO_URI and PHOTO_THUMBNAIL_URI shall not be null (but not necessarily vice versa). If the content provider does not differentiate between full-size photos and thumbnail photos, PHOTO_THUMBNAIL_URI and PHOTO_URI can contain the same value, but either both shall be null or both not null. Type: TEXT String PHOTO_URI A URI that can be used to retrieve the contact's full-size photo. If PHOTO_FILE_ID is not null, this will be populated with a URI based off ContactsContract.DisplayPhoto#CONTENT_URI. Otherwise, this will be populated with the same value as PHOTO_THUMBNAIL_URI. A photo can be referred to either by a URI (this field) or by ID (see PHOTO_ID). If either PHOTO_FILE_ID or PHOTO_ID is not null, PHOTO_URI and PHOTO_THUMBNAIL_URI shall not be null (but not necessarily vice versa). Thus using PHOTO_URI is a more robust method of retrieving contact photos. Type: TEXT
From class ContactOptionsColumns String CUSTOM_RINGTONE URI for a custom ringtone associated with the contact. If null or missing, the default ringtone is used. Type: TEXT (URI to the ringtone) String LAST_TIME_CONTACTED The last time a contact was contacted. Caution: If you publish your app to the Google Play Store, this field is obsolete, regardless of Android version. For more information, see the Contacts Provider page. Type: INTEGER String PINNED The position at which the contact is pinned. If PinnedPositions#UNPINNED, the contact is not pinned. Also see PinnedPositions. Type: INTEGER String SEND_TO_VOICEMAIL Whether the contact should always be sent to voicemail. If missing, defaults to false. Type: INTEGER (0 for false, 1 for true) String STARRED Is the contact starred? Type: INTEGER (boolean) String TIMES_CONTACTED The number of times a contact has been contacted. Caution: If you publish your app to the Google Play Store, this field is obsolete, regardless of Android version. For more information, see the Contacts Provider page. Type: INTEGER
From class ContactNameColumns String DISPLAY_NAME_ALTERNATIVE An alternative representation of the display name, such as "family name first" instead of "given name first" for Western names. If an alternative is not available, the values should be the same as DISPLAY_NAME_PRIMARY. A contacts provider is free to provide alternatives as necessary for its target market. For example the default Android Open Source Project contacts provider currently provides an alternative in a single case: if the display name is based on the structured name and the structured name follows the Western full name style, then the field contains the "family name first" version of the full name. Other cases may be added later. String DISPLAY_NAME_PRIMARY The standard text shown as the contact's display name, based on the best available information for the contact (for example, it might be the email address if the name is not available). The information actually used to compute the name is stored in DISPLAY_NAME_SOURCE. A contacts provider is free to choose whatever representation makes most sense for its target market. For example in the default Android Open Source Project implementation, if the display name is based on the structured name and the structured name follows the Western full-name style, then this field contains the "given name first" version of the full name. String DISPLAY_NAME_SOURCE The kind of data that is used as the display name for the contact, such as structured name or email address. See DisplayNameSources. String PHONETIC_NAME Pronunciation of the full name in the phonetic alphabet specified by PHONETIC_NAME_STYLE. The value may be set manually by the user. This capability is of interest only in countries with commonly used phonetic alphabets, such as Japan and Korea. See PhoneticNameStyle. String PHONETIC_NAME_STYLE The phonetic alphabet used to represent the PHONETIC_NAME. See PhoneticNameStyle. String SORT_KEY_ALTERNATIVE Sort key based on the alternative representation of the full name, DISPLAY_NAME_ALTERNATIVE. Thus for Western names, it is the one using the "family name first" format. String SORT_KEY_PRIMARY Sort key that takes into account locale-based traditions for sorting names in address books. The default sort key is DISPLAY_NAME_PRIMARY. For Chinese names the sort key is the name's Pinyin spelling, and for Japanese names it is the Hiragana version of the phonetic name.
From class BaseColumns String _COUNT The count of rows in a directory. Type: INTEGER String _ID The unique ID for a row. Type: INTEGER (long)

Properties

CONTENT_FILTER_URI

Added in API level 5

static val CONTENT_FILTER_URI: Uri!

The content:// style URI used for "type-to-filter" functionality on the CONTENT_URI URI. The filter string will be used to match various parts of the contact name. The filter argument should be passed as an additional path segment after this URI.

CONTENT_FREQUENT_URI

Added in API level 21
Deprecated in API level 29

static val CONTENT_FREQUENT_URI: Uri!

Deprecated: Frequent contacts are no longer supported as of Android version android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#Q. This URI always returns an empty cursor.

Caution: If you publish your app to the Google Play Store, this field doesn't sort results based on contacts frequency. For more information, see the Contacts Provider page.

The content:// style URI for showing a list of frequently contacted people.

CONTENT_GROUP_URI

Added in API level 5

static val CONTENT_GROUP_URI: Uri!

CONTENT_LOOKUP_URI

Added in API level 5

static val CONTENT_LOOKUP_URI: Uri!

A content:// style URI for this table that should be used to create shortcuts or otherwise create long-term links to contacts. This URI should always be followed by a "/" and the contact's LOOKUP_KEY. It can optionally also have a "/" and last known contact ID appended after that. This "complete" format is an important optimization and is highly recommended.

As long as the contact's row ID remains the same, this URI is equivalent to CONTENT_URI. If the contact's row ID changes as a result of a sync or aggregation, this URI will look up the contact using indirect information (sync IDs or constituent raw contacts).

Lookup key should be appended unencoded - it is stored in the encoded form, ready for use in a URI.

CONTENT_MULTI_VCARD_URI

Added in API level 21

static val CONTENT_MULTI_VCARD_URI: Uri!

Base Uri for referencing multiple Contacts entry, created by appending LOOKUP_KEY using Uri#withAppendedPath(Uri, String). The lookup keys have to be joined with the colon (":") separator, and the resulting string encoded. Provides OpenableColumns columns when queried, or returns the referenced contact formatted as a vCard when opened through ContentResolver#openAssetFileDescriptor(Uri, String).

Usage example:

The following code snippet creates a multi-vcard URI that references all the contacts in a user's database.

public Uri getAllContactsVcardUri() {
      Cursor cursor = getActivity().getContentResolver().query(Contacts.CONTENT_URI,
          new String[] {Contacts.LOOKUP_KEY}, null, null, null);
      if (cursor == null) {
          return null;
      }
      try {
          StringBuilder uriListBuilder = new StringBuilder();
          int index = 0;
          while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
              if (index != 0) uriListBuilder.append(':');
              uriListBuilder.append(cursor.getString(0));
              index++;
          }
          return Uri.withAppendedPath(Contacts.CONTENT_MULTI_VCARD_URI,
                  Uri.encode(uriListBuilder.toString()));
      } finally {
          cursor.close();
      }
  }
  

CONTENT_STREQUENT_FILTER_URI

Added in API level 5

static val CONTENT_STREQUENT_FILTER_URI: Uri!

The content:// style URI used for "type-to-filter" functionality on the CONTENT_STREQUENT_URI URI. The filter string will be used to match various parts of the contact name. The filter argument should be passed as an additional path segment after this URI.

Caution: If you publish your app to the Google Play Store, this field doesn't sort results based on contacts frequency. For more information, see the Contacts Provider page.

CONTENT_STREQUENT_URI

Added in API level 5

static val CONTENT_STREQUENT_URI: Uri!

The content:// style URI for this table joined with useful data from ContactsContract.Data, filtered to include only starred contacts. Frequent contacts are no longer included in the result as of Android version android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#Q.

Caution: If you publish your app to the Google Play Store, this field doesn't sort results based on contacts frequency. For more information, see the Contacts Provider page.

CONTENT_URI

Added in API level 5

static val CONTENT_URI: Uri!

The content:// style URI for this table

CONTENT_VCARD_URI

Added in API level 5

static val CONTENT_VCARD_URI: Uri!

Base Uri for referencing a single Contacts entry, created by appending LOOKUP_KEY using Uri#withAppendedPath(Uri, String). Provides OpenableColumns columns when queried, or returns the referenced contact formatted as a vCard when opened through ContentResolver#openAssetFileDescriptor(Uri, String).

ENTERPRISE_CONTENT_FILTER_URI

Added in API level 24

static val ENTERPRISE_CONTENT_FILTER_URI: Uri!

It supports the similar semantics as CONTENT_FILTER_URI and returns the same columns. This URI requires ContactsContract#DIRECTORY_PARAM_KEY in parameters, otherwise it will throw IllegalArgumentException. The passed directory can belong either to the calling user or to a managed profile that is linked to it.

ENTERPRISE_CONTENT_URI

Added in API level 34

static val ENTERPRISE_CONTENT_URI: Uri

URI used for getting all contacts from both the calling user and the managed profile that is linked to it.

It supports the same semantics as CONTENT_URI and returns the same columns.
If the calling user has no managed profile, it behaves in the exact same way as CONTENT_URI.
If there is a managed profile linked to the calling user, it will return merged results from both.

Note: this query returns the calling user results before the managed profile results, and this order is not affected by the sorting parameter.

If a result is from the managed profile, the following changes are made to the data:

• PHOTO_THUMBNAIL_URI and PHOTO_URI will be rewritten to special URIs. Use android.content.ContentResolver#openAssetFileDescriptor or its siblings to load pictures from them.
• PHOTO_ID and PHOTO_FILE_ID will be set to null. Don't use them.
• _ID and LOOKUP_KEY will be replaced with artificial values. These values will be consistent across multiple queries, but do not use them in places that do not explicitly say they accept them. If they are used in the selection param in android.content.ContentProvider#query, the result is undefined.
• In order to tell whether a contact is from the managed profile, use ContactsContract.Contacts#isEnterpriseContactId(long).
