Usage

🚧

Important

Before launching, make sure you have configured your verification level and access token.

Setup

import 'package:flutter_idensic_mobile_sdk_plugin/flutter_idensic_mobile_sdk_plugin.dart';

void launchSDK() async {

  // From your backend get an access token for the applicant to be verified.
  // The token must be generated with `levelName` and `userId`,
  // where `levelName` is the name of a level configured in your dashboard.
  //
  // The sdk will work in the production or in the sandbox environment
  // depend on which one the `accessToken` has been generated on.
  //
  final String accessToken = "your_access_token";

  // The access token has a limited lifespan and when it's expired, you must provide another one.
  // So be prepared to get a new token from your backend.
  final onTokenExpiration = () async {
    // call your backend to fetch a new access token (this is just an example)
    return Future<String>.delayed(Duration(seconds: 2), () => "your new access token");
  };

  final SNSStatusChangedHandler onStatusChanged = (SNSMobileSDKStatus newStatus, SNSMobileSDKStatus prevStatus) {
    print("The SDK status was changed: $prevStatus -> $newStatus");
  };

  final snsMobileSDK = SNSMobileSDK.init(accessToken, onTokenExpiration)
    .withHandlers( // optional handlers
      onStatusChanged: onStatusChanged
    )
    .withDebug(true) // set debug mode if required
    .withLocale(Locale("en")) // optional, for cases when you need to override the system locale
    .build();

  final SNSMobileSDKResult result = await snsMobileSDK.launch();

  print("Completed with result: $result");
}

The return type of the snsMobileSDK.launch() method is the Future of SNSMobileSDKResult type. Use it to determine the SDK status upon its closure.

Here is an example of the result.

SNSMobileSDKResult(
  success: false,
  status: SNSMobileSDKStatus.Failed,
  errorType: SNSMobileSDKErrorType.Unauthorized,
  errorMsg: "Unauthorized access with accessToken=[your access token]",
  actionResult: null
)

Launch

Next, you are able to use the launchSNSMobileSDK(), as defined above, in order to launch the SDK.

For example:

body: Center(
  child: Column(
    mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
    children: <Widget>[
...
      Container(
        alignment: Alignment.center,
        child: ElevatedButton(onPressed: () => launchSDK(),
        child: Text("Launch Sumsub SDK")),
      ),
...
    ],
  ),
),

Dismissal

By default, once the applicant is approved, the SDK will be dismissed in 3 seconds automatically. You can adjust this time interval or switch the automatic dismissal off by setting the value to zero.

snsMobileSDK.withAutoCloseOnApprove(0)

Also, in case you need to close the SDK programmatically, here is what you can do.

snsMobileSDK.dismiss()

Advanced

Configuration

If it is required, you could provide an email and/or phone number that will be assigned to the applicant initially.

.withApplicantConf({
  "email": "...",
  "phone": "..."
})

Preferred Documents

For IDENTITY* steps, it is possible to specify the preferred country and document type to be selected automatically, bypassing the DocType Selector screen. Note that the parameters provided will be applied only if the corresponding combination of country and idDocType is allowed at the step according to the level configuration.

.withPreferredDocumentDefinitions({
  "IDENTITY": {
    "idDocType":"PASSPORT",
    "country":"USA"
  },
  "IDENTITY2": {
    "idDocType":"DRIVERS",
    "country":"FRA"
  }
})

Disable Google ML Kit

🚧

Important

This is an Android-specific feature.

The SumSub SDK uses Google ML Kit face detection library if it is available with the application, and built-in Android face detection otherwise. You can disable using ML Kit even if it is available.

.withDisableMLKit(true)

Localization

You can customize or localize the texts used within the SDK through the MSDK Translations tool in the dashboard.

The language of the texts will be set according to the system locale, but you could override it with the locale you desire:

.withLocale(Locale("en"))

For a complete list of supported locales, see this article.

Strings

In addition to the MSDK Translations tool and .withLocale, you can use .withStrings option that allows you to define the strings locally.

This may be helpful for iOS apps if you would like to avoid the Wordless Oops screen that could be rendered in case the network happens to be down during the SDK initialization, and force the SDK to draw the Network Oops instead.

.withStrings({
  "sns_oops_network_title": "Oops! Seems like the network is down.",
  "sns_oops_network_html": "Please check your internet connection and try again.",
  "sns_oops_action_retry": "Try again",
})

Note that .withLocale does not affect these strings, thus it is up to you to use the required localization.

Analytics

The SDK collects and sends usage data to Sumsub servers. We do not track any sensitive data. Only general usage statistics are sent to us. It includes screen navigation events, UI controls interaction events, and so on.

We interpret the usage data in order to improve Sumsub. None of the data is sold or transferred to third parties, and we do not use it for advertising.

If you still want to disable this feature, you can use the following to do this.

.withAnalyticsEnabled(false)

Events

Various events happening along the processing could be delivered into an optional onEvent handler.

final SNSEventHandler onEvent = (SNSMobileSDKEvent event) {
  print("onEvent: $event");
};

final snsMobileSDK = SNSMobileSDK.init(accessToken, onTokenExpiration)
  .withHandlers(
    onEvent: onEvent
  )

Each Event has eventType and some parameters packed into payload map, for example.

SNSMobileSDKEvent(
  eventType: "StepInitiated",
  payload: {
    "idDocSetType": "IDENTITY"
  }
)

Possible events

"ApplicantLoaded"

{
  "applicantId": "$applicantId"
}

"StepInitiated"

{
  "idDocSetType": "$idDocSetType"
}

"StepCompleted"

{
  "idDocSetType": "$idDocSetType",
  "isCancelled": false
}

"Analytics"

{
  "eventName": "$eventName",
  "eventPayload": object
}

Applicant Actions

To run the iOS SDK in Applicant actions mode, you need to have:

1. A verification level with the Applicant actions type.
2. An access token created with the userId, levelName, and externalActionId parameters.

Aside from the notes above, use the SDK the same way that you do with regular levels.

🚧

Important

The Payment methods step is not supported at the moment.
