Promise<string>
A promise with the desired value or error if there is some issue. Promise failure reasons can be as follows:
| Code | Description |
|---|---|
USER_CANCELED | User canceled the file selection flow |
INTERNAL_ERROR | PhonePe’s internal error |
Response :
Promise<any> - The promise resolution returns an array of maps describing the files selected by the user.
Promise resolve:
[{
“uri”: “content://main/folder/image.jpeg”,
“fileName”: “image.jpeg”,
“size_in_bytes”: “12345”
}]
Promise reject:
{
'error_code': USER_CANCELED
}
readFile(uri: string, offset:number, length: number) => Promise
Description: This method needs a URI to read a file. This URI must be first returned through the selectFile() method. The file can be read in chunks or can be read in one go based on the offset and length parameters. The size of the file is already returned in the selectFile() method’s response.
Promise – The promise resolution returns a JS object with the URI of the taken image.
Usage:
Suppose the size of the file is 100
You can read whole file together
readFile(uri, 0,100(size))
or Read multipart : You can fetch using the different sizes.
readFile(uri, 0, 10(size)) - In response you will get 0-10
readFile(uri, 10, 90(size)) - In response you will get data from 10-100
PhonePe.PhonePe.build(PhonePe.Constants.Species.web).then((sdk) => {
sdk.readFile(‘uri’,1, 100)
.then((data) => {
console.log('Value received = ' + data)
})
.catch((err) => {})
})

| Parameter Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
uri | string | URI (file path) returned from the selectFile() method call. |
offset | number | This is the offset (in bytes) from starting where the file will be read from. |

Promise<any>
A promise resolution with the grant token. Promise rejection if the grant token fetching failed.
Response :
Promise<any> - The promise resolution returns an array of maps describing the files selected by the user.
Promise resolve:
{
“uri”: “content://main/folder/image.jpeg”,
“base64Data”: “ABCD1234ABCD”
}
Promise reject:
{
'error_code': PERMISSION_DENIED
}
| Code | Description |
|---|---|
PERMISSION_DENIED | This URI was not first retrieved through the selectFile() method call. |
INTERNAL_ERROR | PhonePe’s internal error |
The URIs allowed to be read through the readFile() method should be retrieved from the selectFile() method first. The client should maintain a map to ensure this.
