Capacitor plugin to receive content such as text, links, and files from other apps. [ ![Deliver Live Updates to your Capacitor app with Capawesome Cloud](../../../assets/external/cloud.capawesome.io/assets/banners/cloud-build-and-deploy-capacitor-apps.69628c3f.png) ](https://cloud.capawesome.io/) ## Features[ΒΆ](#features "Permanent link") The Capacitor Share Target plugin is one of the most complete solutions for receiving shared content in Capacitor apps. Here are some of the key features: * πŸ–₯️ **Cross-platform**: Supports Android, iOS and Web. * πŸ“ **Multi-content types**: Handle text, URLs, images, videos, and files. * 🌐 **Web Share Target API**: Leverage the native sharing capabilities of the web. * πŸ“¦ **Large File Support**: Efficient file caching without memory limitations. * 🀝 **Compatibility**: Works alongside the [Android Intent Launcher](https://capawesome.io/docs/sdks/capacitor/android-intent-launcher/), [Clipboard](https://capawesome.io/docs/sdks/capacitor/clipboard/) and [File Opener](https://capawesome.io/docs/sdks/capacitor/file-opener/) plugins. * πŸ“¦ **CocoaPods & SPM**: Supports CocoaPods and Swift Package Manager for iOS. * πŸ” **Up-to-date**: Always supports the latest Capacitor version. * ⭐️ **Support**: Priority support from the Capawesome Team. * ✨ **Handcrafted**: Built from the ground up with care and expertise, not forked or AI-generated. Missing a feature? Just [open an issue](https://github.com/capawesome-team/capacitor-plugins/issues) and we'll take a look! ## Use Cases[ΒΆ](#use-cases "Permanent link") The Share Target plugin is typically used whenever an app wants to appear in the share sheet of the operating system, for example: * **Media imports**: Receive images and videos shared from the gallery or other apps. * **Save-for-later apps**: Receive links and text shared from browsers or social media apps, for example in a bookmarking or note-taking app. * **File handling**: Receive documents such as PDFs shared from other apps for further processing. * **PWA share target**: Let your Progressive Web App receive shared content via the Web Share Target API. ## Compatibility[ΒΆ](#compatibility "Permanent link") | Plugin Version | Capacitor Version | Status | | -------------- | ----------------- | -------------- | | 8.x.x | \>=8.x.x | Active support | | 0.2.x | 7.x.x | Deprecated | ## Demo[ΒΆ](#demo "Permanent link") A working example can be found [here](https://github.com/capawesome-team/capacitor-share-target-demo). | Android | iOS | Web | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | ![Android Demo](https://capawesome.io/docs/assets/images/gifs/capacitor-share-target-android.gif) | ![iOS Demo](https://capawesome.io/docs/assets/images/gifs/capacitor-share-target-ios.gif) | ![Web Demo](https://capawesome.io/docs/assets/images/gifs/capacitor-share-target-web.gif) | ## Installation[ΒΆ](#installation "Permanent link") This plugin is only available to [Capawesome Insiders](https://capawesome.io/insiders/). First, make sure you have the Capawesome npm registry set up. You can do this by running the following commands: `[](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-0-1)npm config set @capawesome-team:registry https://npm.registry.capawesome.io [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-0-2)npm config set //npm.registry.capawesome.io/:_authToken ` **Attention**: Replace `` with the license key you received from Polar. If you don't have a license key yet, you can get one by becoming a [Capawesome Insider](https://capawesome.io/insiders/). Next, you can use our **AI-Assisted Setup** to install the plugin. Add the [Capawesome Skills](https://github.com/capawesome-team/skills) to your AI tool using the following command: `[](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-1-1)npx skills add capawesome-team/skills --skill capacitor-plugins ` Then use the following prompt: `` [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-2-1)Use the `capacitor-plugins` skill from `capawesome-team/skills` to install the `@capawesome-team/capacitor-share-target` plugin in my project. `` If you prefer **Manual Setup**, install the plugin by running the following commands and follow the platform-specific instructions below: `[](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-3-1)npm install @capawesome-team/capacitor-share-target [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-3-2)npx cap sync ` ### Android[ΒΆ](#android "Permanent link") #### Intent Filters[ΒΆ](#intent-filters "Permanent link") To enable your app to receive shared content from other apps, you need to add intent filters to your main activity in `AndroidManifest.xml` (usually `android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml`). For example, to handle text, URLs, and other text-based content, add the following intent filter: `[](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-4-1) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-4-2) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-4-3) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-4-4) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-4-5) ` To handle a single image, add the following intent filter: `[](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-5-1) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-5-2) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-5-3) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-5-4) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-5-5) ` To handle multiple images, add the following intent filter: `[](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-6-1) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-6-2) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-6-3) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-6-4) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-6-5) ` You can also add additional intent filters for other MIME types as needed, such as `application/pdf` for PDF files or `video/*` for videos. **Attention**: Make sure to add these intent filters inside the `` tag of your main activity, typically `MainActivity`. Also, make sure the activity has the `android:exported="true"` attribute set, which allows other apps to send intents to it. The `android:launchMode="singleTask"` attribute is recommended to prevent multiple instances of your app from being created when receiving shared content. Here's an example of how your `AndroidManifest.xml` might look like: `[](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-7-1) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-7-5) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-7-6) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-7-7) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-7-8) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-7-9) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-7-10) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-7-11) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-7-12) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-7-13) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-7-14) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-7-15) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-7-16) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-7-17) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-7-18) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-7-19) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-7-20) ` #### Proguard[ΒΆ](#proguard "Permanent link") If you are using Proguard, you need to add the following rules to your `proguard-rules.pro` file: `[](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-8-1)-keep class io.capawesome.capacitorjs.plugins.** { *; } ` #### Variables[ΒΆ](#variables "Permanent link") If needed, you can define the following project variable in your app's `variables.gradle` file to change the default version of the dependency: * `$androidxExifInterfaceVersion` version of `androidx.exifinterface:exifinterface` (default: `1.4.2`) This can be useful if you encounter dependency conflicts with other plugins in your project. ### iOS[ΒΆ](#ios "Permanent link") On iOS, it's not possible to receive shared content directly in the main app. Instead, you need to create a share extension that can handle the shared content and then communicate it back to your main app. This involves setting up a URL scheme and configuring the share extension to handle the shared content. The communication between the share extension and the main app is done using URL schemes, which allows the share extension to open the main app with the shared content as parameters in the URL. #### URL Scheme[ΒΆ](#url-scheme "Permanent link") To enable your app to be opened by the share extension, you need to set up a URL scheme in your iOS app. This is done by adding a URL type in your app's `Info.plist` file. Add the following code to your `Info.plist` file: `[](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-9-1)CFBundleURLTypes [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-9-2) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-9-3) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-9-4) CFBundleURLSchemes [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-9-5) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-9-6) YOUR_URL_SCHEME [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-9-7) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-9-8) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-9-9) ` **Attention**: Replace `YOUR_URL_SCHEME` with your desired URL scheme (e.g. `myapp`). This will allow your app to be opened with URLs like `myapp://?text=Hello%20World`. #### Share Extension[ΒΆ](#share-extension "Permanent link") To enable your app to receive shared content from other apps on iOS, you need to create a share extension. First, you need to add a new target to your Xcode project: 1. Open your Xcode project. 2. Go to `File` \> `New` \> `Target...`. 3. Select `Share Extension` from the list of templates. 4. Name your extension `AppShare` and click `Finish`. This will create a new target in your Xcode project with the necessary files for a share extension. If you see a prompt to activate the new scheme, choose "Don't Activate". There is one file called `MainInterface.storyboard` that you should delete **via Xcode**, as we will not need it. After this, you need to configure the share extension to handle the shared content. Open the `Info.plist` file of your share extension **in a text editor of your choice** and replace its content with the following: `[](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-1) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-2) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-3) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-4) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-5) NSExtension [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-6) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-7) NSExtensionAttributes [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-8) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-9) NSExtensionActivationRule [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-10) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-11) NSExtensionActivationDictionaryVersion [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-12) 2 [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-13) NSExtensionActivationSupportsWebURLWithMaxCount [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-14) 1 [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-15) NSExtensionActivationSupportsText [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-16) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-17) NSExtensionActivationSupportsWebURLWithMaxCount [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-18) 10 [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-19) NSExtensionActivationSupportsFileWithMaxCount [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-20) 10 [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-21) NSExtensionActivationSupportsImageWithMaxCount [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-22) 10 [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-23) NSExtensionActivationSupportsMovieWithMaxCount [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-24) 10 [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-25) NSExtensionActivationSupportsWebPageWithMaxCount [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-26) 1 [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-27) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-28) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-29) NSExtensionPrincipalClass [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-30) AppShare.ShareViewController [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-31) NSExtensionPointIdentifier [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-32) com.apple.share-services [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-33) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-34) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-10-35) ` Feel free to adjust the `NSExtensionActivationRule` keys to match the types of content you want to support. The example above supports text, web URLs, files, images, and movies. Next, you need to update the `ShareViewController.swift` file in your share extension target and replace its content with the following code: `[](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-11-1)import MobileCoreServices [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-11-2)import Social [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-11-3)import UIKit [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-11-4)import UniformTypeIdentifiers [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-11-5) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-11-6)struct SharedFileData { [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-11-7) let uri: String [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-11-8) let name: String?

This allows both targets to share files in a common container. To do this, follow these steps: 1. Open your Xcode project. 2. Select your app target. 3. Go to the "Signing & Capabilities" tab. 4. Click the "+" button to add a new capability. 5. Select "App Groups" from the list. 6. Create a new app group using the format `group.` (e.g., `group.com.example.app`). 7. Repeat the same steps for your share extension target, ensuring that both targets use the same app group identifier. If you don't want to receive files, you can skip this step. ## Configuration[ΒΆ](#configuration "Permanent link") No configuration required for this plugin. ## Web[ΒΆ](#web "Permanent link") To use this plugin on the web, you need to set up a **Progressive Web App (PWA)** with a web manifest and service worker that handles share targets. ### Manifest[ΒΆ](#manifest "Permanent link") To allow your PWA to act as a share target, you need to add a `share_target` configuration to your web manifest (`manifest.json`): `[](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-1){ [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-2) "share_target": { [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-3) "action": "/_share-target", [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-4) "method": "POST", [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-5) "enctype": "multipart/form-data", [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-6) "params": { [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-7) "title": "title", [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-8) "text": "text", [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-9) "url": "url", [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-10) "files": [ [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-11) { [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-12) "name": "files", [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-13) "accept": ["*/*"] [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-14) } [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-15) ] [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-16) } [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-17) } [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-13-18)} ` For more information on setting up the share target for your PWA, refer to the [Web Share Target documentation](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Manifest/share%5Ftarget). ### Service Worker[ΒΆ](#service-worker "Permanent link") Since service workers are the only way to intercept network requests in a PWA, you'll need to create one to handle the share target requests. Just create a file named `sw.js` in your project's root directory and add the following code: `` [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-1)self.addEventListener('fetch', event => { [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-2) const url = new URL(event.request.url); [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-3) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-4) if (event.request.method === 'POST' && url.pathname === '/_share-target') { [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-5) event.respondWith(handleShareTarget(event.request)); [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-6) } else if (url.pathname.startsWith('/_share-file/')) { [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-7) event.respondWith(handleFileRequest(event.request)); [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-8) } [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-9)}); [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-10) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-11)async function handleFileRequest(request) { [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-12) try { [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-13) const url = new URL(request.url); [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-14) const fileId = url.pathname.substring(13); // Remove '/_share-file/' prefix [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-15) const cache = await caches.open('share-target-files'); [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-16) const cacheKey = `/${fileId}`; [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-17) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-18) const response = await cache.match(cacheKey); [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-19) if (response) { [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-20) return response; [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-21) } else { [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-22) return new Response('File not found', { status: 404 }); [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-23) } [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-24) } catch (error) { [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-25) console.error('Error serving file:', error); [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-26) return new Response('Internal error', { status: 500 }); [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-27) } [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-28)} [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-29) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-30)async function handleShareTarget(request) { [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-31) try { [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-32) const formData = await request.formData(); [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-33) const title = formData.get('title') || ''; [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-34) const text = formData.get('text') || ''; [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-35) const url = formData.get('url') || ''; [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-36) const files = formData.getAll('files'); [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-37) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-38) const texts = []; [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-39) if (text) texts.push(text); [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-40) if (url) texts.push(url); [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-41) [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-42) const shareData = { [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-43) title: title, [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-14-44) texts: texts.length > 0 ?

To resolve this issue, you need to manually revert the `objectVersion` value to a previous version that is compatible with your Xcode version. ## FAQ[ΒΆ](#faq "Permanent link") ### What types of content can my app receive?[ΒΆ](#what-types-of-content-can-my-app-receive "Permanent link") The plugin can handle text, URLs, images, videos, and other files. Which content types your app actually receives depends on your configuration: the intent filters in your `AndroidManifest.xml` on Android, the `NSExtensionActivationRule` of your share extension on iOS, and the `share_target` configuration in your web manifest for Progressive Web Apps. See the [Installation](#installation) section for details. ### Why do I need a share extension on iOS?[ΒΆ](#why-do-i-need-a-share-extension-on-ios "Permanent link") On iOS, it's not possible to receive shared content directly in the main app. Instead, a share extension handles the shared content and communicates it back to your main app via a URL scheme. The [Installation](#installation) section walks you through creating the share extension, setting up the URL scheme, and handling the URLs in your `AppDelegate.swift`. ### How do I read the files that were shared?[ΒΆ](#how-do-i-read-the-files-that-were-shared "Permanent link") Each shared file contains a `uri` property. On Android and iOS, this contains the file path or a base64 encoded data URL of the shared file, which you can load using `Capacitor.convertFileSrc(...)` and the Fetch API. On the web, the `uri` contains a cached file URL that can be fetched directly. See the [usage example](#listen-for-shared-content) above. ### Why does my app not appear in the share sheet on Android?[ΒΆ](#why-does-my-app-not-appear-in-the-share-sheet-on-android "Permanent link") Make sure you have added the appropriate intent filters inside the `` tag of your main activity in `AndroidManifest.xml` for the MIME types you want to receive. Also, the activity must have the `android:exported="true"` attribute set so that other apps can send intents to it, as described in the [Installation](#installation) section. ### Does the plugin work in a Progressive Web App?[ΒΆ](#does-the-plugin-work-in-a-progressive-web-app "Permanent link") Yes, the plugin leverages the Web Share Target API. You need to add a `share_target` configuration to your web manifest and register a service worker that handles the share target requests, as described in the [Web](#web) section. ### Can I use this plugin with Ionic, React, Vue or Angular?[ΒΆ](#can-i-use-this-plugin-with-ionic-react-vue-or-angular "Permanent link") Yes, the plugin is framework-agnostic. It works in any Capacitor app regardless of the web framework, including Ionic with Angular, React, or Vue, as well as plain JavaScript projects. ## Related Plugins[ΒΆ](#related-plugins "Permanent link") * [Android Intent Launcher](https://capawesome.io/docs/sdks/capacitor/android-intent-launcher/): Launch arbitrary Android intents, for example to share content with other apps. * [Clipboard](https://capawesome.io/docs/sdks/capacitor/clipboard/): Read from and write to the system clipboard. * [File Opener](https://capawesome.io/docs/sdks/capacitor/file-opener/): Open a received file with the default application. * [File Picker](https://capawesome.io/docs/sdks/capacitor/file-picker/): Let the user select a file, directory, image, or video from the device. ## Newsletter[ΒΆ](#newsletter "Permanent link") Stay up to date with the latest news and updates about the Capawesome, Capacitor, and Ionic ecosystem by subscribing to our [Capawesome Newsletter](https://cloud.capawesome.io/newsletter/). ## Changelog[ΒΆ](#changelog "Permanent link") See [CHANGELOG.md](https://github.com/capawesome-team/capacitor-plugins/blob/main/packages/share-target/CHANGELOG.md). ## Breaking Changes[ΒΆ](#breaking-changes "Permanent link") See [BREAKING.md](https://github.com/capawesome-team/capacitor-plugins/blob/main/packages/share-target/BREAKING.md). ## License[ΒΆ](#license "Permanent link") See [LICENSE](https://github.com/capawesome-team/capacitor-plugins/blob/main/packages/share-target/LICENSE).

See the Installation section for details."}}, {"@type": "Question", "name": "Why do I need a share extension on iOS?", "acceptedAnswer": {"@type": "Answer", "text": "On iOS, it's not possible to receive shared content directly in the main app. Instead, a share extension handles the shared content and communicates it back to your main app via a URL scheme. The Installation section walks you through creating the share extension, setting up the URL scheme, and handling the URLs in your AppDelegate.swift."}}, {"@type": "Question", "name": "How do I read the files that were shared?", "acceptedAnswer": {"@type": "Answer", "text": "Each shared file contains a uri property. On Android and iOS, this contains the file path or a base64 encoded data URL of the shared file, which you can load using Capacitor.convertFileSrc(...) and the Fetch API. On the web, the uri contains a cached file URL that can be fetched directly. See the usage example above."}}, {"@type": "Question", "name": "Why does my app not appear in the share sheet on Android?", "acceptedAnswer": {"@type": "Answer", "text": "Make sure you have added the appropriate intent filters inside the tag of your main activity in AndroidManifest.xml for the MIME types you want to receive. Also, the activity must have the android:exported=\"true\" attribute set so that other apps can send intents to it, as described in the Installation section."}}, {"@type": "Question", "name": "Does the plugin work in a Progressive Web App?", "acceptedAnswer": {"@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes, the plugin leverages the Web Share Target API. You need to add a share_target configuration to your web manifest and register a service worker that handles the share target requests, as described in the Web section."}}, {"@type": "Question", "name": "Can I use this plugin with Ionic, React, Vue or Angular?", "acceptedAnswer": {"@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes, the plugin is framework-agnostic. It works in any Capacitor app regardless of the web framework, including Ionic with Angular, React, or Vue, as well as plain JavaScript projects."}}], "url": "https://capawesome.io/docs/sdks/capacitor/share-target/"} ```
