Android Question [Solved] Error using intent to share file in Google Drive (Android 13)

I'm testing this code to share a file directly in Google Drive.
B4X: 
File.Copy(File.DirAssets, "1.pdf", Starter.Provider.SharedFolder, "1.pdf")

Dim sendIntent As Intent
sendIntent.Initialize(sendIntent.ACTION_SEND,"")
sendIntent.SetComponent("com.google.android.apps.docs/.common.shareitem.UploadMenuActivity")
sendIntent.PutExtra("android.intent.extra.STREAM", Starter.Provider.GetFileUri("1.pdf"))
StartActivity(sendIntent)

It works fine in Android 10, but in Android 13 I get this error message:
B4X: 
android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to find explicit activity class {com.google.android.apps.docs/com.google.android.apps.docs.common.shareitem.UploadMenuActivity}; have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml, or does your intent not match its declared <intent-filter>?
Do I need declare something in manifest in Android 13 to use the intent?

Google Drive is up to date in both devices and I can see the component string with QueryIntentActivities.

How can I fix it in Android 13?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Yes. You need to declare any other apps you want to interact with. See this thread and especially post #7 and see if that solves your problem

[SOLVED] Alternative to check if WhatsApp is installed without using PackageManager - QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES on + SDK30

Until now I used PackageManager to check which applications were installed (for example WhatsApp) Currently google requires QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES in Manifest in order to have a list of Installed Packages. Is it possible to know if WhatsApp is installed, via tried through some kind of Try-Catch...

I have this permission in manifest:
B4X: 
AddPermission(android.permission.QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES)
and this query too:
B4X: 
<package android:name="com.google.android.apps.docs" />
but works only in Android 10.
In Android 13 I get the error.
Edit: I'm still testing. I can't use the QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES because the app is in Play Store.

Thanks both!
Anyone with a Samsung device with Android 13 to test the code?
The devices which I tested the code - and got the error - was a Samsung A71 and M32.

Just to close this topic.
After a software update in the Galaxy A71, released by Samsung last week, the problem was solved.
