How to add image to emulator's gallery in HarmonyOS?

I am testing a HarmonyOS application and want to add an image to the emulator's gallery.

In Android Studio, we can send any file into the android emulator via drag-n-drop action, but drag-n-drop isn't working here.

What is the alternative for this in HarmonyOS?

Currently, drag-and-drop is not supported. You can run the following HDC command to transfer files:

hdc file send D:/a.jpg /sdcard

Steps:

  1. Make sure the device (Simulator / Phone) is running.

  2. Run DevEcoStudio -> Open Terminal.
