IBM Cloud App ID Android SDK
Requirements
- API 27 or above
- Java 8.x
- Android SDK Tools 26.1.1+
- Android SDK Platform Tools 27.0.1+
- Android Build Tools version 27.0.0+
Installing the SDK:
- Add the JitPack repository to the your root
build.gradle
file at the end of the repository.
allprojects {
repositories {
...
maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
}
}
- Add the dependency for the App ID client SDK:
dependencies {
compile 'com.github.ibm-cloud-security:appid-clientsdk-android:6.+'
}
- Within your Android project in Android Studio, open the build.gradle file of your app module (not the project build.gradle), and add the following line to the defaultConfig:
defaultConfig {
...
manifestPlaceholders = ['appIdRedirectScheme': android.defaultConfig.applicationId]
}
Initializing the App ID Client SDK
Initialize the client SDK by passing the context, tenantId and region parameters to the initialize method. A common, though not mandatory, place to put the initialization code is in the onCreate
method of the main activity in your Android application.
AppID.getInstance().initialize(getApplicationContext(), <tenantId>, AppID.REGION_UK);
- Replace "tenantId" with the App ID service tenantId.
- Replace the AppID.REGION_UK with your App ID region (AppID.REGION_US_SOUTH, AppID.REGION_SYDNEY).
Using the Login Widget
Use the LoginWidget
class to start the authorization flow.
LoginWidget loginWidget = AppID.getInstance().getLoginWidget();
loginWidget.launch(this, new AuthorizationListener() {
@Override
public void onAuthorizationFailure (AuthorizationException exception) {
//Exception occurred
}
@Override
public void onAuthorizationCanceled () {
//Authentication canceled by the user
}
@Override
public void onAuthorizationSuccess (AccessToken accessToken, IdentityToken identityToken, RefreshToken refreshToken) {
//User authenticated
}
});
Note:
- By default, App ID is configured to use Facebook, Google, and Cloud Directory as identity providers. If you change your identity provider settings to provide only one option, then the Login Widget is not needed and will not display. The user is directed to your chosen identity provider's authentication screen.
- When using Cloud Directory, and "Email verification" is configured to not allow users to sign-in without email verification, then the "onAuthorizationSuccess" of the "AuthorizationListener" will be invoked without tokens.
Managing Cloud Directory with the Android SDK
Make sure to set Cloud Directory identity provider to ON in AppID dashboard, when using the following APIs.
Sign in using Resource Owner Password
You can obtain access token, id token and refresh token by supplying the end user's username and password.
AppID.getInstance().signinWithResourceOwnerPassword(getApplicationContext(), username, password, new TokenResponseListener() {
@Override
public void onAuthorizationFailure (AuthorizationException exception) {
//Exception occurred
}
@Override
public void onAuthorizationSuccess (AccessToken accessToken, IdentityToken identityToken, RefreshToken refreshToken) {
//User authenticated
}
});
Sign Up
Make sure to set Allow users to sign up and reset their password to ON, in the settings for Cloud Directory. Use the LoginWidget class to start the sign up flow.
LoginWidget loginWidget = AppID.getInstance().getLoginWidget();
loginWidget.launchSignUp(this, new AuthorizationListener() {
@Override
public void onAuthorizationFailure (AuthorizationException exception) {
//Exception occurred
}
@Override
public void onAuthorizationCanceled () {
//Sign up canceled by the user
}
@Override
public void onAuthorizationSuccess (AccessToken accessToken, IdentityToken identityToken, RefreshToken refreshToken) {
if (accessToken != null && identityToken != null) {
//User authenticated
} else {
//email verification is required
}
}
});
Forgot Password
Make sure to set Allow users to sign up and reset their password and Forgot password email to ON, in the settings for Cloud Directory
Use LoginWidget class to start the forgot password flow.
LoginWidget loginWidget = AppID.getInstance().getLoginWidget();
loginWidget.launchForgotPassword(this, new AuthorizationListener() {
@Override
public void onAuthorizationFailure (AuthorizationException exception) {
//Exception occurred
}
@Override
public void onAuthorizationCanceled () {
// Forogt password canceled by the user
}
@Override
public void onAuthorizationSuccess (AccessToken accessToken, IdentityToken identityToken, RefreshToken refreshToken) {
// Forgot password finished, in this case accessToken and identityToken will be null.
}
});
Change Details
Make sure to set Allow users to sign up and reset their password to ON, in Cloud Directory settings that are in AppID dashboard. Use LoginWidget class to start the change details flow. This API can be used only when the user is logged in using Cloud Directory identity provider.
LoginWidget loginWidget = AppID.getInstance().getLoginWidget();
loginWidget.launchChangeDetails(this, new AuthorizationListener() {
@Override
public void onAuthorizationFailure (AuthorizationException exception) {
// Exception occurred
}
@Override
public void onAuthorizationCanceled () {
// Changed details canceled by the user
}
@Override
public void onAuthorizationSuccess (AccessToken accessToken, IdentityToken identityToken, RefreshToken refreshToken) {
// User authenticated, and fresh tokens received
}
});
Change Password
Make sure to set Allow users to sign up and reset their password to ON, in the settings for Cloud Directory.
Use LoginWidget class to start the change password flow. This API can be used only when the user logged in by using Cloud Directory as their identity provider.
LoginWidget loginWidget = AppID.getInstance().getLoginWidget();
loginWidget.launchChangePassword(this, new AuthorizationListener() {
@Override
public void onAuthorizationFailure (AuthorizationException exception) {
// Exception occurred
}
@Override
public void onAuthorizationCanceled () {
// Change password canceled by the user
}
@Override
public void onAuthorizationSuccess (AccessToken accessToken, IdentityToken identityToken, RefreshToken refreshToken) {
// User authenticated, and fresh tokens received
}
});
Anonymous Sign in
AppID.getInstance().signinAnonymously(getApplicationContext(), new AuthorizationListener() {
@Override
public void onAuthorizationFailure(AuthorizationException exception) {
//Exception occurred
}
@Override
public void onAuthorizationCanceled() {
//Authentication canceled by the user
}
@Override
public void onAuthorizationSuccess(AccessToken accessToken, IdentityToken identityToken, RefreshToken refreshToken) {
//User authenticated
}
});
Sign in with refresh token
It is recommended to store the refresh token locally such that it will be possible to sign in with the refresh token without requiring the user to type his credentials again.
AppID.getInstance().signinWithRefreshToken(getApplicationContext(), refreshTokenString, new AuthorizationListener() {
@Override
public void onAuthorizationFailure(AuthorizationException exception) {
//Exception occurred
}
@Override
public void onAuthorizationCanceled() {
//Authentication canceled by the user
}
@Override
public void onAuthorizationSuccess(AccessToken accessToken, IdentityToken identityToken, RefreshToken refreshToken) {
//User authenticated
}
});
Logout
Call the logout function in order to clear the stored tokens.
AppID.getInstance().logout();
Manage User Profiles
Using the App ID UserProfileManager, you are able to create, delete, and retrieve user profile attributes as well as get additional info about a user.
AppID appId = AppID.getInstance();
String name = "name";
String value = "value";
appId.getUserProfileManager().setAttribute(name, value, new UserProfileResponseListener() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(JSONObject attributes) {
// Set attribute "name" to "value" successfully
}
@Override
public void onFailure(UserAttributesException e) {
// Exception occurred
}
});
appId.getUserProfileManager().getAttribute(name, new UserProfileResponseListener() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(JSONObject attributes) {
// Got attribute "name" successfully
}
@Override
public void onFailure(UserAttributesException e) {
// Exception occurred
}
});
appId.getUserProfileManager().getAllAttributes(new UserProfileResponseListener() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(JSONObject attributes) {
// Got all attributes successfully
}
@Override
public void onFailure(UserAttributesException e) {
// Exception occurred
}
});
appId.getUserProfileManager().deleteAttribute(name, new UserProfileResponseListener() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(JSONObject attributes) {
// Attribute "name" deleted successfully
}
@Override
public void onFailure(UserAttributesException e) {
// Exception occurred
}
});
// Retrieve user info using the latest stores access and identity tokens
appId.getUserProfileManager().getUserInfo(new UserProfileResponseListener() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(JSONObject userInfo) {
// retrieved user info successfully
}
@Override
public void onFailure(UserInfoException e) {
// Exception occurred
}
});
// Retrieve user info using your own accessToken.
// Optionally, pass an identityToken for response verification. (recommended)
appId.getUserProfileManager().getUserInfo(accessToken, identityToken, new UserProfileResponseListener() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(JSONObject userInfo) {
// retrieved user info successfully
}
@Override
public void onFailure(UserInfoException e) {
// Exception occurred
}
});
Invoking protected resources
BMSClient bmsClient = BMSClient.getInstance();
bmsClient.initialize(getApplicationContext(), AppID.REGION_UK);
AppIDAuthorizationManager appIdAuthMgr = new AppIDAuthorizationManager(AppID.getInstance())
bmsClient.setAuthorizationManager(appIdAuthMgr);
Request request = new Request("http://my-mobile-backend.mybluemix.net/protected", Request.GET);
request.send(this, new ResponseListener() {
@Override
public void onSuccess (Response response) {
Log.d("Myapp", "onRegistrationSuccess :: " + response.getResponseText());
}
@Override
public void onFailure (Response response, Throwable t, JSONObject extendedInfo) {
if (null != t) {
Log.d("Myapp", "onRegistrationFailure :: " + t.getMessage());
} else if (null != extendedInfo) {
Log.d("Myapp", "onRegistrationFailure :: " + extendedInfo.toString());
} else {
Log.d("Myapp", "onRegistrationFailure :: " + response.getResponseText());
}
}
});
