    <p>I don't know if I'm understanding you correctly, but perhaps you aren't really looking for an API reference so much as a reference to <strong>Intents</strong> which can be started/called from your app? If so, take a look at the <a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent.html" rel="nofollow">Intent documentation</a> on the developer site. You can use an <a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent.html" rel="nofollow"><code>Intent</code></a> to launch activities from other applications, sometimes with the ability to retrieve a result using <a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Activity.html#startActivityForResult%28android.content.Intent,%20int%29" rel="nofollow"><code>startActivityForResult</code></a> (such as launching the Contacts list to pick a contact, the ID for which will be returned to your app), or the ability to view or edit things like contacts or phone numbers in their respective default apps.</p> <p>For example, you can create an Intent that uses the <a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent.html#ACTION_DIAL" rel="nofollow"><code>"ACTION_DIAL"</code></a> action parameter along with the data parameter <code>"content://contacts/people/1"</code> to launch the phone's Dialer with the number for a contact already filled in. Take a look at the <a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/components/intents-filters.html" rel="nofollow">Intents and Intent Filters guide</a> for more information that goes beyond the general API reference.</p> <p>Not all of the built-in apps support every action, nor do they all support startActivityForResult (Calendar, for example, does not allow you to launch it to use it as a date or event picker if I recall correctly). So it's worth doing some research outside of the documentation too.</p>
