How to open Gmail Compose when a button is clicked in Android App?

Question

I am trying to open up Gmail Compose screen when a button is clicked in my Android App. Do I need some API key for this from Google? or what do I need to do in my button onC

I don't know that you can specifically launch gmail. Have you tried this in your onClickListener

Intent emailIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
emailIntent.setType("text/plain");
startActivity(emailIntent);
