openFileFromNotification not working

[xOldeVx]

When download is finished, the notification show a Complete status, when i click on it, it doesn't open the file. Here's my code:

app.dart

      FlutterDownloader.enqueue(
        url: url,
        headers: {'Authorization': user.token},
        fileName: fileName,
        savedDir: localPath,
        showNotification: true,
        openFileFromNotification: true,
      );

AndroidManifest.xml

<manifest>
    <application>
    ....
    ....
        <provider
            android:name="vn.hunghd.flutterdownloader.DownloadedFileProvider"
            android:authorities="${applicationId}.flutter_downloader.provider"
            android:exported="false"
            android:grantUriPermissions="true">
            <meta-data
                android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
                android:resource="@xml/provider_paths"/>
        </provider>
    </application>
</manifest>

What can be the problem?

In Android 11 it doesn't open, but in other versions it's open the file from the notification

[luffy1012]

In android 10 also file is not opening from notification!

[Akshat7321]

Facing the same issue. The file is'nt opening from Notifications. Further there is some issue with the directory in which the file is being stored. I have externally requested permission to write to external storage and have included the relevant tags in Manifest.xml but still I cannot save the downloaded file to some othe external folder.

For Flutter_Downloader

If you are using API 29+(ANDROID 10 and Above) add the below code in AndriodManifest.xml

android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true"

Like this

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">  

    
    ...........
  
    <application
        ..............
        <!-- Add This line -->

        tools:replace="android:label" 
        android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true"> <!-- Add This line if you are targeting android API 29+-->

        <activity>
            ...............
        </activity>
     
    </application>
</manifest>

We're running into the same issue. The recommend solution doesn't seem to work.

[kevin-138]

also having the same issue with android 10, for android 11 and up it's working fine and i can open from notification like normal. my app is targetting API 33. Using manage external storage works but google play console won't tolerate it. The recommend solution doesn't seem to work. Any fix?
