I tried to write file to xamarin forms and then copy to clipboard but i have no idea how can i copy file to clipboard any help will be appreciated.

string fileName = Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.LocalApplicationData), "temp.txt");
            File.WriteAllText(fileName, "Hello Wolkhjkhjkrld");
            String file = "";
            using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(fileName))
            {
                file = sr.ReadToEnd();
            }

use Xamarin Essentials Clipboard

await Clipboard.SetTextAsync("Hello World");

var text = await Clipboard.GetTextAsync();

  • Yes but thats will work only for text but for example if i want to copy .html file? – Hristo Ivanov Mar 06 '20 at 17:30
  • an html file is just text. But generally you don't copy and paste files on mobile devices. You can share files, but that does not use the clipboard. – Jason Mar 06 '20 at 17:50
