Is there a way to filter contacts by "organization" in the agenda of Android contacts, when triggered through other activity?

Question

In one app for Android, I intend to open the contacts agenda from another Activity via Intent, but I would like to see only contacts that bring a specific value in the "Organization" field. There is a way to specify this in the Intent that opens the contacts' agenda? It follows the current code, in which the Intent is started at the click of the button getContactDetails:

getContactDetails.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        //Inicia atividade de lista de contatos, para obter os dados do contato
        Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,
                                   ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
        startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_CONTACT);
    }
});

Answer 1

Exactly this you can do as is done the operation in any database on android.

String[] projection = new String[]{Calls.NUMBER, Calls.DURATION};
Cursor cur = context.getContentResolver().query(Calls.CONTENT_URI, projection, null, null, Calls.DATE +" desc");

In the example above I am taking in my case the links, as you need the contacts just exchange something like:

Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(People.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null); 

Answer 2

There is yes ,here is a more detailed example you can sort by any field you want

Below excerpt directly from the documentation cited above.

Defines the Sort order

Sets a Sort order for the returned Cursor. Since you’re retrieving a specific data type, omit the Sort on MIMETYPE. Instead, if the type of Detail data you’re Searching includes a subtype, Sort on it. For example, for email data you can Sort on Email.TYPE:

private static final String SORT_ORDER = Email.TYPE + " ASC ";
