  • kotlin-parcelize and kotlinx-serialization plugins, as well as the following dependencies have been removed:

  • org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-serialization-core:1.0.0
  • org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-serialization-json:1.0.0

Initialization Updates

  • ~~apiToken~~ and ~~apiSecret~~ are replaced by one-time sdk.token

Default UI Updates

As of SDK version 4.0.0, a lot of SDK parameters that previously could be set in the actual code are now contained within and provided by the sdk.token. These parameters have to be configured beforehand, during the API call that requests the token.

Please refer to the Configuration section of our integration guides for a detailed description of all Default UI changes and updates.

Information about which user journey (ID Verification, Identity Verification, Authentication, ...) the SDK is going to provide now also has to be specified during the API call that request the sdk.token.

For more details on individual Jumio workflows, please refer to Workflow Descriptions in our guides.

Custom UI Updates

As of SDK version 4.0.0, Custom UI workflow has been completely restructured.

Please refer to the Custom UI section of our integration guides for a detailed description of all Custom UI changes and updates.

     */
    void startScan();

Jetifier adaptions

Due to a bug in the Jetifier, the Bouncycastle library needs to be added to the Jetifiers ignorelist in the gradle.properties
