Intent from notification does not have extras

Question

This seem to be a common problem and I went through all the related questions I could find already: Activity isn't picking up new intent, Why extra data (integer) is not

Answer 1

You can send extras in intent following way

PendingIntent contentIntent ;
Intent intent = new Intent(this,TestActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("extra","Test");
TaskStackBuilder stackBuilder = TaskStackBuilder.create(this);

stackBuilder.addParentStack(ArticleDetailedActivity.class);

contentIntent = stackBuilder.getPendingIntent(0,PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);

To Get Intent extra value in Test Activity class you need to write following code :

Intent intent = getIntent();
 String extra = intent.getStringExtra("extra") ;
