Resolved Issues¶

none

Known Issues¶

• Instrumented URLConnection Classes network request elapsed time inaccurate.
• Application Lifecycle Breadcrumbs for “Foreground”, “Background” events may be inaccurate.

Omnissa Intelligence SDK 24.8.0 for Android - September 16, 2024¶

Minimum Requirements¶

• Android 5.0 or later (Android 7.0+ recommended)
• API Level 21 or later (API Level 24+ recommended)
• Workspace ONE UEM Console 2109 or later
• Android Studio with the Gradle Android Build System (Gradle) 8.2.2 or later

New Features¶

• CrittercismConfig Configuration APIs around blocking the reporting of specified URL patterns when sending Network Events have been updated:

  CrittercismConfig:
  public void setURLBlacklistPatterns(java.util.List) -> public void setURLDenylistPatterns(java.util.List);
  public java.util.List getURLBlacklistPatterns() -> public java.util.List getURLDenylistPatterns();
  

• Android NDK Crash Events have been re-worked. Native and NDK crashes originating from C/C++ code will now be reported to the Intelligence Console if enabled through the CrittercismConfig:

• NOTE: Default enablement value for NDK Crash events: False

      CrittercismConfig:
      public void setNdkCrashEnabled(boolean);
      public boolean isNdkCrashEnabled();
  

• New SDK API, setPrivacyConfiguration, has been introduced which helps inject privacy configuration to control transmission of certain TelemetrySDK attributes.

  /**
   * Asynchronously set the privacy configuration for a specific TelemetrySDK Feature.
   * IntelligenceSDK is agnostic to the configuration delivery mechanism as long as the payload conforms to
   * the required format.
   * Example of a privacy configuration:
   *  "DEXData": {
   *      "Version": 1.0,
   *      "BatteryData": {
   *          "DisableAll": false,
   *          "AttributesToDisable": ["plugged_type", "battery_charging_rate"],
   *          "EventsToDisable": []
   *      },
   *      "DeviceData": {
   *          "DisableAll": false,
   *          "AttributesToDisable": ["location_latitude", "location_longitude"],
   *          "EventsToDisable": []
   *      },
   *      "NetworkData": {
   *          "DisableAll": false,
   *          "AttributesToDisable": ["jitter", "latency"],
   *          "EventsToDisable": []
   *      }
   *  }
   *
   * @param privacyConfig Map containing the necessary key value pairs for parsing the privacy config. If the privacy
   *                      config is fetched via WS1 UEM SDK, then it is in the JSON format. Apps / SDK's are expected
   *                      to fetch the value for key "DEXData" and convert it into a map. If the property "DEXData"
   *                      and its value does not exist, apps are still required to call this API with a null value for
   *                      the privacyConfig parameter.
   * @param feature       The Feature classification of the data to be exported, eg. DEX, ZeroTrust.
   */
  public static void setPrivacyConfiguration(Map<String, Object> privacyConfig, @NonNull TelemetryFeature feature);
  

• New “DEX” Telemetry Feature Event: Network State Change.

• Event name: network_change
• This event is triggered when there is a switch in network SSID, cellular type, ethernet, or a disconnection. Disconnections are reported if 5 seconds have surpassed and a reconnection of the same network type has not occurred.

Known Issues¶

• Instrumented URLConnection Classes network request elapsed time inaccurate.

Omnissa Intelligence SDK 24.6.1 for Android - August 9, 2024¶

Minimum Requirements¶

• Android 5.0 or later
• API Level 21 or later
• Workspace ONE UEM Console 2109 or later
• Android Studio with the Gradle Android Build System (Gradle) 8.2.2 or later

New Features¶

• SDK Integration through Local Repository

The IntelligenceSDK and it’s dependencies will now be hosted in a Maven folder structure found in the Release section of our public Github Page: https://github.com/euc-releases/ws1-intelligencesdk-sdk-android

After downloading and unzipping the following repository folder, you can now reference and pull the IntelligenceSDK using the following structure:

   // App level Build.Gradle Configuration (Groovy)

   repositories {
       maven {
           url uri("/PATH/TO/FOLDER/ws1-intelligence-sdk-repository")
       }
       mavenCentral()
       google()
   }

   android {
      packagingOptions {
           pickFirst '**/libc++_shared.so'
           pickFirst '**/libcrypto.1.0.2.so'
           pickFirst '**/libssl.1.0.2.so'
       }
   }

   def ws1IntelSdkVersion = "24.11.0"

   dependencies {
       // Declare a dependency on the Intelligence SDK
       implementation "com.ws1:ws1intelligencesdk:$ws1IntelSdkVersion"
   }

Resolved Issues¶

• Protobuf Dependency upgraded from older protobuf-java implementation to protobuf-javalite.
• This allows for greater compatibility within projects that import other dependencies that rely on Protobuf, such as Google’s Firestore.

Known Issues¶

none

Omnissa Intelligence SDK 24.6.0 for Android - July 2024¶

Minimum Requirements¶

• Android 5.0 or later
• API Level 21 or later
• Workspace ONE UEM Console 2109 or later
• Android Studio with the Gradle Android Build System (Gradle) 8.2.2 or later

New Features¶

• Opt-Int and Out status APIs have been refactored to separate SDK and Telemetry Feature interaction.
• The following have been added or refactored in the Crittercism singleton:

Refactored:
// Used to get/set SDK Opt-In / Opt-Out Status
void setOptInStatus(Crittercism.TelemetryType telemetryType, boolean optIn) -> void setSdkOptInStatus(boolean optIn)
boolean getOptInStatus(Crittercism.TelemetryType telemetryType) -> boolean getSdkOptInStatus()
Added:
// Used to get/set Telemetry Feature Opt-In Status
boolean getTelemetryOptInStatus(TelemetryFeature)
// Used to Opt-Out of all Telemetry Features
void telemetryOptOut();

• New API introduced to export data collected through our Telemetry Features! Users are now able to export data collected from the Telemetry Features they have Opted-Into. Use the following API to get Feature, Event, and Export formatted specific data in an Asynchronous fashion!

  /**
  * Interface for handling Telemetry Feature exported data.
  */
  interface TelemetryExportHandler {
      /**
      * Callback when data export has completed.
      * @param data String which will contain exported Telemetry Feature data,
      * null if error occurs.
      */
      fun onDataExport(data: String?)
  }
  /**
    * Asynchronously Export Data collected through enabled Telemetry Features.
    * @param feature Telemetry Feature to query data for.
    * @param eventType Type of Telemetry Event data to query for: Attributes, Events, or All.
    * @param exportType Format of the data exported, currently offering JSON support only.
    * @param dataHandler Interface called when data is ready to be exported.
    */
  public static void exportTelemetryFeatureData( @NonNull TelemetryFeature feature,
                                                  @NonNull TelemetryEventType eventType,
                                                  @NonNull TelemetryExportType exportType,
                                                  @NonNull TelemetryExportHandler dataHandler) 
  Example: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // Implement the TelemetryExportHandler Interface to reach exported data asynchronously.
  val dataHandler = object:TelemetryExportHandler { 
    // Callback method for export. Data parameter will either have formatted Telemetry
    // data or be null if an issue occurs. 
    override fun onDataExport(data: String?) {
        Log.d(TAG, "Here is my exported data: ${data ?: "An issue has occurred."}")
      } 
  }
  Crittercism.exportTelemetryFeatureData(
            TelemetryFeature.All, // Query data from all enabled features.
            TelemetryEventType.ALL, // Returns values for all data types.
            TelemetryExportType.JSON, // Format to export data in.
            dataHandler) // Exported data handler callback.
