IncdOnboarding SDK Usage
Requirements:​
- iOS 13.0+
- Xcode 15.0.1+
IncdOnboarding SDK can be used in three ways - Standard, Advanced and Capture only. Standard mode starts the Onboarding flow that consists of specified steps and validates user inputs along the way. Advanced mode enables you to fully customize the experience of the flow, ie. by splitting it into multiple sections, adding your own custom screens between some of the steps etc. Capture only mode enables you to just retrieve captured images during ie. ID or Selfie scan, without doing any validations such as ID validation, Face recognition and Liveness detection.
Standard
1. Initialize IncdOnboarding SDK​
Add the following line of code to your AppDelegate
class:
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.initIncdOnboarding(url: url, apiKey: apiKey)
url
and apiKey
will be provided to you by Incode. To initialize the SDK without an apiKey
, please follow the section Using SDK without API key
below.
If you're running the app on a simulator, please set the testMode
parameter to true.
2. Configure the Onboarding session​
Firstly, you should create an instance of IncdOnboardingSessionConfiguration
, which provides a configuration of onboarding session:
let sessionConfig = IncdOnboardingSessionConfiguration()
You can optionally customize the onboarding session by providing these parameters:
- Parameter
regionCode
: Specify the user's region - Parameter
queue:
Specify the queue which the user will enter once the flow is completed. If none specifed user goes to default queue. - Parameter
configurationId
: Specify flow id from the dashboard in order to use configurations applied to that flow. Note that you still have to add onboarding steps viaIncdOnboardingFlowConfiguration
in order to display onboarding flow to the user. - Parameter
validationModules
: List of Onboarding Validation modules to be taken into account for user scoring and approval. By default it is.id
,.liveness
,.faceRecognition
- Parameter
customFields
: Provide a list of custom fields that will be stored for this session - Parameter
interviewId
: ID of the onboarding session. Specify in order to resume existing onboarding session. - Parameter
token
: Token of the onboarding session. Specify in order to resume existing onboarding session. - Parameter
externalId
: Id that is used outside of Incode Omni platform. If a session with the same externalId already exists, it will be resumed instead of creating a new one. - Parameter
externalCustomerId
: Similar to externalId, but instead of restarting the session it will create a new one. - Parameter
e2eEncryptionEnabled
: Enables End-to-end encryption for API requests. - Parameter
mergeSessionRecordings
: A Boolean value that indicates whether the session recordings will be compiled into a single video. If set to true, the recordings from the ID capture and Face capture will be merged.
3. Configure the Onboarding flow​
Depending on your needs you should specify the steps you want to include using IncdOnboardingFlowConfiguration
, ie.:
let flowConfig = IncdOnboardingFlowConfiguration()
flowConfig.addIdScan()
flowConfig.addSelfieScan()
flowConfig.addFaceMatch()
The steps will be executed in the order you added them to the flow config.
4. Start the Onboarding​
In your UIViewController
class where you want to start the onboarding flow you should call startOnboarding
function:
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.presentingViewController = self
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.startOnboarding(sessionConfig: sessionConfig, flowConfig: flowConfig, delegate: self)
You should provide your UIViewController
instance, previosuly created IncdOnboardingSessionConfiguration
, IncdOnboardingFlowConfiguration
and a delegate that conforms to IncdOnboardingDelegate
protocol that will be notified about updates from IncdOnboarding SDK as the user goes through the flow.
// Called when front Id Scan is completed
func onIdFrontCompleted(_ result: IdScanResult)
// Called when back Id Scan is completed
func onIdBackCompleted(_ result: IdScanResult)
// Called when process ID step is completed.
func onIdProcessed(_ result: IdProcessResult)
// ...
// Called when Onboarding flow is finished successfully
func onSuccess()
// Called when some unexpected error occured during Onboarding flow
func onError(_ error: IncdFlowError)
Advanced flow SDK mode
Advanced flow SDK mode enables you to fully customize the experience of the flow, ie. by splitting Onboarding flow into multiple sections, adding your own custom screens between some of the steps etc.
1. Initialize IncdOnboarding SDK​
Add the following line of code to your AppDelegate
class:
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.initIncdOnboarding(url: url, apiKey: apiKey)
url
and apiKey
will be provided to you by Incode. To initialize the SDK without an apiKey
, please follow the section Using SDK without API key
below.
Optionally disable logs, by providing false
for loggingEnabled
parameter.
2. Setup onboarding session​
Before calling other Onboarding SDK components it is nececessary to setup an onboarding session.
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.setupOnboardingSession(sessionConfig: IncdOnboardingSessionConfiguration()) { (sessionResult) in
// Setting up the onboarding session is completed
if sessionResult.result == .success {
// Its now safe to start to call other methods
...
}
}
3. Show Onboarding Sections or call other SDK methods​
After onboarding session is setup you can show Onboarding SDK components based on your need, here's some examples what you can do inside your UIViewController
classes where you would like to show Onboarding SDK components.
If you would like to show multiple steps sequentially, you can specify which ones and their order by creating IncdOnboardingFlowConfiguration
object:
IncdOnboardingFlowConfiguration flowConfig = IncdOnboardingFlowConfiguration()
flowConfig.addIdScan()
flowConfig.addFaceScan()
After you've created the flow configuration, you need to call startOnboardingSection
to start the flow:
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.presentingViewController = self
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.startOnboardingSection(flowConfig: flowConfig, sectionTag: "MySection", delegate: self)
Once the section is completed you'll get notified through the delegate and its onOnboardingSectionCompleted
function:
func onOnboardingSectionCompleted(_ flowTag: String) {
print("onOnboardingSectionCompleted")
// Show custom UI, create and show another Onboarding section or individual screen
}
Separated Front and Back ID Scan​
If you would like to scan the front side of the ID separately from the back side, you need to:
- Specify ScanSide parameter:
firstSection.addIdScan(scanStep: .front)
secondSection.addIdScan(scanStep: .back)
- Add ID Process module (this step is not required if
scanStep
is.both
)
thirdSection.addIdProcess()
Note: firstSection
, secondSection
and thirdSection
are separated to make an example.
They can also be one section but after IdProcess
no more scanning will be possible.
Results will be returned in the same way as before, via:
// Called when front Id Scan is completed
func onIdFrontCompleted(_ result: IdScanResult)
// Called when back Id Scan is completed
func onIdBackCompleted(_ result: IdScanResult)
// Called when process ID step is completed.
func onIdProcessed(_ result: IdProcessResult)
Call individual Onboarding SDK components​
If you would like to show a single step, ie. do a geolocation only, you can call use the API to call individual Onboarding SDK components. To start the geolocatiion:
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.presentingViewController = self
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.geolocation() { (result) in
// geolocation is completed, result is of type `GeolocationResult`
}
4. Finish the session​
Once you're done with all the steps needed from IncdOnboarding SDK it is necessary to flag this session as finished.
To do so you need to call finishFlow
:
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.finishFlow() { success, error in
// Session is now flag as finished
}
If you don't want to flag this session as finished, but still want to perform a session cleanup before using the SDK further, please call deleteLocalUserData
method:
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.deleteLocalUserData()
// Session cleanup completed
}
Capture Only
Full guide for Capture Only SDK mode is available here
Simulator Support:​
To enable simulator support, when initializing the IncdOnboardingManager using the initIncdOnboarding(url:apiKey:token:loggingEnabled:testMode:_:)
method, set the testMode
parameter to true.
On the simulator, onboarding modules which require use of the device camera will show a black or grey background instead of the camera preview. The modules will only last for 2 seconds before returning .simulatorDetected
and then moving on to the next module.
Background conference support​
- In order to enable conference background mode, OpenTok requires a key-value pair to be added to your app. In the Info.plist file for your app, set up the background mode permissions as described in the Apple documentation for creating VoIP apps. The key is
UIBackgroundModes
. Do add theaudio
value to this dictionary.
Other API methods
Get Regions​
To fetch all the regions available use getRegions()
method.
Example usage:
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.getRegions() { regions, error in
var myRegionCode: String?
// Go through the list of available regions to set `myRegionCode`, and the provide it to the `IncdOnboardingSessionConfiguration` to apply it to your onboarding session
let sessionConfig = IncdOnboardingSessionConfiguration(regionCode: myRegionCode)
}
Dismissing Incode UX​
Calling dismiss
method will try to dismiss current flow.
If flow or module is not yet finished nothing will happen.
To force interruption of the flow specify forceInterrupt
to true, which will also mark the session as finished and trigger the callback onError
with the value .interrupted
in case delegate
was provided in startOnboarding
or startOnboardingSection
.
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.dismiss()
or
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.dismiss(forceInterrupt: true)
Force close Incode UX​
Calling the forceInterrupt
method will imediatelly cancel IncdOnboarding simple flow, section flow or individual module.
It will try to mark current session as finished if tryFinishingFlow
is true
, and lastly trigger the callback onError
with the value .interrupted
in case delegate
was provided in startOnboarding
or startOnboardingSection
.
- Parameters:
tryFinishingFlow
: Iftrue
, it will try asynchronously to mark current session as finished. Default isfalse
.interviewId
: OptionalinterviewId
in case you would like to finish a specific user session, instead of the most recent one.completion
: Callback for getting result of this step.- success:
Bool
- error:
IncdError?
- success:
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.forceInterrupt() { success, error in
// if `success` true the flow was successfully interrupted
}
Load machine learning models​
Calling loadModels
method will start loading of image processing models that are used in camera capture modules, ie. Selfie scan.
May be called in advance to minimize delays at corresponding modules initialization and faster startup of these modules.
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.loadModels()
Using SDK without API key
To avoid providing API key to the SDK and actually creating onboarding sessions on your backend, please use the following guide.
Init the SDK without API key​
Provide an URL to the initIncdOnboarding
that ends with an /0
to specify environment that doesn't require API key to function properly.
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.initIncdOnboarding(url: "https://demo-api.incodesmile.com/0") { success,error in
}
Provide a session token​
Create an onboarding session token on your backend using
omni/start
API method that will return atoken
.Pass it to the
IncdOnboardingSessionConfiguration
object before starting the flow:
let sessionConfiguration = IncdOnboardingSessionConfiguration(token: "YOUR_TOKEN_GOES_HERE")
Please note there is no need to specify interviewId
or configurationId
params, only specifying token
is enough and all necessary configurations will be applied to this session.
Start the flow​
- Provide
sessionConfiguration
created in previous step to thestartOnboarding
orsetupOnboardingSession
methods depending if you're usingStandard
orAdvanced
flow.
Example for startOnboarding
:
let flowConfig = IncdOnboardingFlowConfiguration()
flowConfig.addIdScan()
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.startOnboarding(sessionConfig: sessionConfig,
flowConfig: flowConfig,
delegate: self)
Example for setupOnboardingSession
and using sections:
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.setupOnboardingSession(sessionConfig: sessionConfig) { session, error in
guard error == nil else {
// Session couldn't be created due to some error
return
}
let flowConfig = IncdOnboardingFlowConfiguration()
flowConfig.addIdScan()
IncdOnboardingManager.shared.startOnboardingSection(flowConfig: flowConfig, sectionTag: "id", delegate: self)
}
Risk Analysis
To use Risk Analysis feature prerequisite is to use 'd-ra' framework variant.
Once you obtain the token created outside of the native SDK, please follow the guide here how to initialize the SDK and provide the token
Customize Face Capture and Video Selfie text
Follow the custom localization guide here. Define in your Localizable.strings
files the following keys: "incdOnboarding.videoSelfie.customText"
and "incdOnboarding.selfie.customText"
.
E2EE (End-to-end Encryption) for API requests and responses
To enable E2EE for API requests and responses:
- Provide API URL with
e2eeURL
parameter of theinitIncdOnboarding
method. - Set
e2eEncryptionEnabled
flag of theIncdOnboardingSessionConfiguration
model totrue
Full guide for E2EE is available here
