Android SDK Guide

This guide provides detailed instructions for integrating the Scanovate Colombia SDK into your Android application, enabling robust identity validation processes through facial biometric verification.

Requirements and Compatibility

Before starting the integration process, ensure your development environment meets the following requirements:

• Android Studio: The latest version is recommended for optimal compatibility.
• Minimum SDK Version: Android SDK version 21 (Lollipop) or higher.
• Target SDK Version: Android SDK version 34 (Android 14) to ensure your app is compatible with the latest Android OS.
• Compile SDK Version: Android SDK version 34.

Installation

1. Add the library

Download the "hybridComponent_3_0_0_15.aar" library and add it to your project's libs folder. Ensure you configure your project's build.gradle file to include the library as a dependency:

dependencies {
    implementation(name: 'hybridComponent_3_0_0_15', ext: 'aar')
}

2. Import Required Libraries

Add the following imports in your activity or fragment where you intend to use the Scanovate SDK:

Java

import mabel_tech.com.scanovate_demo.ScanovateHandler;
import mabel_tech.com.scanovate_demo.ScanovateSdk;
import mabel_tech.com.scanovate_demo.model.CloseResponse;
import mabel_tech.com.scanovate_demo.network.ApiHelper;
import mabel_tech.com.scanovate_demo.network.RetrofitClient;

The CloseResponse object will contain the results of the transaction, providing detailed feedback on the validation process.

Example Implementation

For a practical example of how to implement the Scanovate SDK in your Android application, refer to the following steps:

• Setup UI Elements: Initialize buttons, text views, and other UI elements in your activity's onCreate method. This setup includes buttons for starting the enrollment and verification processes, a text view for displaying results, and an edit text for user input.
• Invoke the SDK: Use the HybridComponent.start method to launch the Scanovate SDK. This method requires several parameters, including language, project name, API key, product ID, and the SDK URL. It also allows you to specify the type of capture (e.g., liveness detection, document capture) and whether to capture the front or back side of a document.
• Handle Callbacks: Implement ScanovateHandler to manage success and failure callbacks. On success, process the CloseResponse object to display the transaction result. On failure, handle errors accordingly.

Example

// Example capture method implementation

    public void capture() {
                HybridComponent.start(this,
                "documentType"                     //Tipo de Documento "VerificarID en Documentación de ADO"
                "es",                              //language: "en") // en (para ingles) es (para español)
                "lulobankqa"                        //ProyectName
                "db92efc69991",                      //ApiKey        
                "1",                                 //ProductId

                 "https://api-dev.ado-tech.com/api/EventTracer/",         //Url_TracerBackendServices       (Servicio Proporcionado Por nosotros para la Flujo de los LOGS o TAGS del proceso.) ** Opcional**   
                 "true"                        //ImmersiveMode   
                "f47ac10b-58cc-4372-a567-0e02b2c3d479",                  //ProcessID (ID creado con el servicio de CreateProccees para trasa de eventos)         **Opcional**     
                functionCapture,                      1  Livennes ,  2 CardCapture
                isFrontSide,                          // Captura de Documento (True captura Frontal)(False Captura Trasera)
                null,                                  //Token
                "null",                                
                new ScanovateHandler() {
                    @Override
                    public void onSuccess(CloseResponse response, int code, String uuidDevice) {
                        progress.show();
                        String calificacion = response.getExtras().getStateName();
                        evaluateTransaction(response.getTransactionId());
                    }

                    @Override
                    public void onFailure(CloseResponse closeResponse) {
                        String calificacion = closeResponse.getExtras().getStateName() +" "+ closeResponse.getExtras().getAdditionalProp1() ;
                    }


                });
    }

• completionHandler: Closure that handles the response or error from the SDK.

Process Transaction Results

After capturing the necessary data, use the RetrofitClient to send the data for validation and display the final state of the transaction to the user.

State Codes Reference

Be aware of the following state codes when processing responses:

• 200: "SUCCESS"
• 201: "THE_NUMBER_OF_CONFIGURED_ATTEMPTS_WAS_EXCEEDED_AND_NO_LIFE_WAS_FOUND_IN_THESE"
• 203: "TIMEOUT"
• 302: "INTERNAL_ERROR"
• 204: "CANCELED_PROCED"
