Before you start

Make sure you've obtained a token, server URL, and auth key from credolab

1. Declare dependencies

CocoaPods

📘

See this page for details on installing CocoaPods and creating your first pod file if you haven't already.

Now, modify your pod file

source 'https://token:[email protected]/basic/credolab/proxyen-sdk/cocoapods/index.git'
target 'YourApplication' do
  pod 'CredoAppCore', 'X.Y.Z'
  pod 'CredoAppCalendarEvents', 'X.Y.Z'
  pod 'CredoAppCalendarReminders', 'X.Y.Z'
  pod 'CredoAppContacts', 'X.Y.Z'
  pod 'CredoAppMusic', 'X.Y.Z'
  pod 'CredoAppMedia', 'X.Y.Z'
  pod 'CredoAppApplication', 'X.Y.Z'
  pod 'CredoAppBehavioral', 'X.Y.Z'
  pod 'CredoAppLocation', 'X.Y.Z'
  pod 'CredoAppTelephony', 'X.Y.Z'

  # Optional: if you want to use logging plugin
  pod 'CredoAppLogging', 'X.Y.Z'
  pod 'Sentry', :git => 'https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-cocoa.git', :tag => '8.36.0'
End

🚧

Note

Please, replace X.Y.Z with module versions from SDK Versions page.
The final result should look like this:

	pod 'CredoAppModule', '1.0.0'

Once added, the cocoa pods tool will download the dependency to the Pods directory in your project and update the Podfile.lock after running the following command:

pod install

Swift Package Manager (SPM)

📘

See this page for details about SPM

1. Create a new Swift package by running the following command if it doesn't already exist
   Shell

   mkdir CredoAppPackage && cd CredoAppPackage && swift package init --type library

2. Set registry for the project by running the following command in the terminal
   Shell

   swift package-registry set https://swift.cloudsmith.io/credolab/proxyen-sdk/ --scope credolab

📘

Note

This command is used to assign registry at user-level

Shell

swift package-registry set https://swift.cloudsmith.io/credolab/proxyen-sdk/ --scope credolab --global

1. Login to private Credolab Swift registry by executing the following command in the terminal
   Shell

   swift package-registry login https://swift.cloudsmith.io/credolab/proxyen-sdk/ --token $TOKEN

👍

Note

Replace $TOKEN placeholder with the token provided by the Credolab team

Setting Up Dependencies

A package dependency is defined in the Package.swift file. To update the dependencies used in your project, open the Package.swift file located in your application's project folder.

In the dependencies section of Package.swift, add the desired modules by specifying their identifiers and versions. The identifier consists of the scope and package name, separated by a period. Refer to the code example below:

// swift-tools-version: 5.10
// The swift-tools-version declares the minimum version of Swift required to build this package.
import PackageDescription

let package = Package(
    name: "CredoAppPackage",
    products: [
        .library(
            name: "CredoAppPackage",
            targets: ["CredoAppPackage"]),
    ],
    dependencies: [
                .package(id: "credolab.CredoAppCore", exact: "X.Y.Z"),
                .package(id: "credolab.CredoAppIovation", exact: "X.Y.Z"),
                .package(id: "credolab.CredoAppMusic", exact: "X.Y.Z"),
                .package(id: "credolab.CredoAppCalendarReminders", exact: "X.Y.Z"),
                .package(id: "credolab.CredoAppCalendarEvents", exact: "X.Y.Z"),
                .package(id: "credolab.CredoAppMedia", exact: "X.Y.Z"),
                .package(id: "credolab.CredoAppBehavioral", exact: "X.Y.Z"),
                .package(id: "credolab.CredoAppApplication", exact: "X.Y.Z"),
                .package(id: "credolab.FraudForce", exact: "X.Y.Z"),
                .package(id: "credolab.CredoAppContacts", exact: "X.Y.Z"),
                .package(id: "credolab.CredoAppLocation", exact: "X.Y.Z")
                .package(id: "credolab.CredoAppTelephony", exact: "X.Y.Z")
    ],
    targets: [
        .target(
            name: "CredoAppPackage", dependencies: [
                .product(name: "CredoAppCore", package: "credolab.CredoAppCore"),
                .product(name: "CredoAppIovation", package: "credolab.CredoAppIovation"),
                .product(name: "FraudForce", package: "credolab.FraudForce"),
                .product(name: "CredoAppMusic", package: "credolab.CredoAppMusic"),
                .product(name: "CredoAppContacts", package: "credolab.CredoAppContacts"),
                .product(name: "CredoAppCalendarReminders", package: "credolab.CredoAppCalendarReminders"),
                .product(name: "CredoAppCalendarEvents", package: "credolab.CredoAppCalendarEvents"),
                .product(name: "CredoAppMedia", package: "credolab.CredoAppMedia"),
                .product(name: "CredoAppBehavioral", package: "credolab.CredoAppBehavioral"),
                .product(name: "CredoAppApplication", package: "credolab.CredoAppApplication"),
                .product(name: "CredoAppLocation", package: "credolab.CredoAppLocation")
              	.product(name: "CredoAppTelephony", package: "credolab.CredoAppTelephony")
            ]),
    ]
)

🚧

Note

Please, replace X.Y.Z with module versions from SDK Versions page.

CredoAppLogging plugin is not available via SPM

Resolving Dependencies

1. Clear Build Products and Cache (Optional)
   Shell

   swift package reset
   swift package purge-cache

2. Resolve dependencies:
   Shell

   swift package resolve

   
   

Integrate the package into an Xcode project (Optional: Only necessary if package has not been integrated previously)

1. To integrate package into Xcode project using Swift Package Manager (SPM), open your App in Xcode and open File > Add Package Dependencies.... Click on Add Local... button and select the package

2) Declare permissions

Please declare permissions according to the "permissions" in Modules section

Enable "Keychain Sharing"

To enable sharing the Device ID across apps and ensure it survives app reinstalls, we recommend additionally configuring "Keychain Sharing" in the app.

1. Add com.credolab to its list of Keychain Groups:
   

2. Check that added value is reflected in the entitlements file:

   $(AppIdentifierPrefix)com.credolab

   

3. Add the key AppIdentifierPrefix with the string value $(AppIdentifierPrefix) to your app's Info.plist

3) Build and use CredoAppService

To start, you need to add the following snippet to your code

import CredoAppCore
import CredoAppMusic
import CredoAppContacts
import CredoAppCalendarReminders
import CredoAppCalendarEvents
import CredoAppMedia
import CredoAppBehavioral
import CredoAppLogging
import CredoAppApplication
import CredoAppLocation
import CredoAppTelephony
// if you use BehavioralModule
// credolab recommends to use logging in behavioral module
BehavioralModule.setLogger(plugin: LoggingPlugin()) 
// run can tracking in any place in your code
BehavioralModule.startTracking() 
	
let credoAppService = CredoAppService.Builder()
    .addModule(BehavioralModule())
    .addModule(CalendarEventsModule())
    .addModule(CalendarRemindersModule())
    .addModule(ContactsModule())
    .addModule(MediaModule())
    .addModule(MusicModule())
    .addModule(ApplicationModule())
    .addModule(LocationModule())
    .addModule(TelephonyModule())
    .addPlugin(LoggingPlugin())
    .build()

// stop tracking on a particular screen or app condition
BehavioralModule.stopTracking()

📘

Note

Please refer to BehavioralModule section for additional information about module integration.

Application module

🚧

To integarte CredoAppApplication module, the initial step involves adding URL Schemas into the Info.plist file within your project (maximum 50 schemas are allowed).

Below is a list of common app schemas along with a detailed guide on how to declare them in the Info.plist file.

Now, use the service

	let credoAppResult = credoAppService.collect()

	switch credoAppResult {
		case .success(let value):
			log(value)
            
		case .error(let errorCode, let errorMsg):
			log("Err: \(Date().timeIntervalSince1970); code - \(errorCode); msg - \(errorMsg);")
	}

❗

Note

Remember that you always must call collect method on a background thread DispatchQueue.global(qos: .background).async.

If collect method is successful then dataset is returned.

❗️

Behavioral data is cleared on collect() method call

Once collect() method is called BehavioralModule clears its data stored on user the device.

Thus, for data consistency, our strong recommendation is to call the method only once: at the end of the user flow.

4. Upload from an iOS Device (Testing purposes only)

🚧

Direct Upload Note:

In a production environment, datasets should only be uploaded via your organization's proxy server.

For testing, integration, or generating insights, you may use the following code snippet:

Next Steps

After successfully integrating our SDK, it is recommended to proceed with the following steps to utilise our platform effectively:

1. Setting up your Reverse Proxy
2. Uploading your Dataset. Once the server is configured, you can upload your dataset using the server address.
3. Collecting your Dataset Insight or TruValidate(formerly known as iovation) Fraud Check. With the dataset uploaded, you can now get insights or perform TruValidate Fraud Checks to assess risk based on the device and transaction details provided.
