Request

Request(uri: Uri!)

addRequestHeader

open fun addRequestHeader(
    header: String!, 
    value: String!
): DownloadManager.Request!

Add an HTTP header to be included with the download request. The header will be added to the end of the list.

allowScanningByMediaScanner

open fun allowScanningByMediaScanner(): Unit

Deprecated: Starting in Q, this value is ignored. Files downloaded to directories owned by applications (e.g. Context.getExternalFilesDir(String)) will not be scanned by MediaScanner and the rest will be scanned.

If the file to be downloaded is to be scanned by MediaScanner, this method should be called before DownloadManager.enqueue(Request) is called.

setAllowedNetworkTypes

open fun setAllowedNetworkTypes(flags: Int): DownloadManager.Request!

Restrict the types of networks over which this download may proceed. By default, all network types are allowed. Consider using setAllowedOverMetered(boolean) instead, since it's more flexible.

As of android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#N, setting only the NETWORK_WIFI flag here is equivalent to calling setAllowedOverMetered(boolean) with false.

setAllowedOverMetered

open fun setAllowedOverMetered(allow: Boolean): DownloadManager.Request!

Set whether this download may proceed over a metered network connection. By default, metered networks are allowed.

setAllowedOverRoaming

open fun setAllowedOverRoaming(allowed: Boolean): DownloadManager.Request!

Set whether this download may proceed over a roaming connection. By default, roaming is allowed.

setDescription

open fun setDescription(description: CharSequence!): DownloadManager.Request!

Set a description of this download, to be displayed in notifications (if enabled)

setDestinationInExternalFilesDir

open fun setDestinationInExternalFilesDir(
    context: Context!, 
    dirType: String!, 
    subPath: String!
): DownloadManager.Request!

Set the local destination for the downloaded file to a path within the application's external files directory (as returned by Context.getExternalFilesDir(String).

The downloaded file is not scanned by MediaScanner. But it can be made scannable by calling allowScanningByMediaScanner().

setDestinationInExternalPublicDir

open fun setDestinationInExternalPublicDir(
    dirType: String!, 
    subPath: String!
): DownloadManager.Request!

Set the local destination for the downloaded file to a path within the public external storage directory (as returned by Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(String)).

The downloaded file is not scanned by MediaScanner. But it can be made scannable by calling allowScanningByMediaScanner().

For applications targeting android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#Q or above, WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission is not needed and the dirType must be one of the known public directories like Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS, Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES, Environment.DIRECTORY_MOVIES, etc.

setDestinationUri

open fun setDestinationUri(uri: Uri!): DownloadManager.Request!

Set the local destination for the downloaded file. Must be a file URI to a path on external storage, and the calling application must have the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission.

The downloaded file is not scanned by MediaScanner. But it can be made scannable by calling allowScanningByMediaScanner().

By default, downloads are saved to a generated filename in the shared download cache and may be deleted by the system at any time to reclaim space.

For applications targeting android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#Q or above, WRITE EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission is not needed and the uri must refer to a path within the directories owned by the application (e.g. Context.getExternalFilesDir(String)) or a path within the top-level Downloads directory (as returned by Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(String) with Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS). All non-visible downloads that are not modified in the last 7 days will be deleted during idle runs.

setMimeType

open fun setMimeType(mimeType: String!): DownloadManager.Request!

Set the MIME content type of this download. This will override the content type declared in the server's response.

setNotificationVisibility

open fun setNotificationVisibility(visibility: Int): DownloadManager.Request!

Control whether a system notification is posted by the download manager while this download is running or when it is completed. If enabled, the download manager posts notifications about downloads through the system android.app.NotificationManager. By default, a notification is shown only when the download is in progress.

It can take the following values: VISIBILITY_HIDDEN, VISIBILITY_VISIBLE, VISIBILITY_VISIBLE_NOTIFY_COMPLETED.

If set to VISIBILITY_HIDDEN, this requires the permission android.permission.DOWNLOAD_WITHOUT_NOTIFICATION.

setRequiresCharging

open fun setRequiresCharging(requiresCharging: Boolean): DownloadManager.Request!

Specify that to run this download, the device needs to be plugged in. This defaults to false.

setRequiresDeviceIdle

open fun setRequiresDeviceIdle(requiresDeviceIdle: Boolean): DownloadManager.Request!

Specify that to run, the download needs the device to be in idle mode. This defaults to false.

Idle mode is a loose definition provided by the system, which means that the device is not in use, and has not been in use for some time.

setShowRunningNotification

open fun setShowRunningNotification(show: Boolean): DownloadManager.Request!

Deprecated: use setNotificationVisibility(int)

Control whether a system notification is posted by the download manager while this download is running. If enabled, the download manager posts notifications about downloads through the system android.app.NotificationManager. By default, a notification is shown. If set to false, this requires the permission android.permission.DOWNLOAD_WITHOUT_NOTIFICATION.

setTitle

open fun setTitle(title: CharSequence!): DownloadManager.Request!

Set the title of this download, to be displayed in notifications (if enabled). If no title is given, a default one will be assigned based on the download filename, once the download starts.

setVisibleInDownloadsUi

open fun setVisibleInDownloadsUi(isVisible: Boolean): DownloadManager.Request!

Deprecated: Starting in Q, this value is ignored. Only files downloaded to public Downloads directory (as returned by Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(String) with Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS) will be visible in system's Downloads UI and the rest will not be visible. All non-visible downloads that are not modified in the last 7 days will be deleted during idle runs. (e.g. Context.getExternalFilesDir(String)) will not be visible.

Set whether this download should be displayed in the system's Downloads UI. True by default.
