How to launch Android Calendar application using Intent (Froyo)

Question

I want to open up the Calendar application from an android application. When i searched online, all i got is to create new events using intent. I could find Intents to open

Answer 1

You can open Calendar View by two means:

1) by particular date 2) by particular event

For this you have to add following two permissions

1) by particular date:

Uri.Builder builder = CalendarContract.CONTENT_URI.buildUpon();
builder.appendPath("time");
ContentUris.appendId(builder, Calendar.getInstance().getTimeInMillis());
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW)
    .setData(builder.build());
startActivity(intent);

2) by particular event:

long eventID = 200;

Uri uri = ContentUris.withAppendedId(Events.CONTENT_URI, eventID);
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW).setData(uri);
startActivity(intent);

Note: CalendarContract content provider was added to the Android SDK in API Level 14. For more information you can visit this link
