Security Provider Support
Support For KitKat devices
Devices running Android KitKat need to update their security provider to be compatible with Airship services. This can be accomplished either by patching the security provider directly, or by having the Airship SDK apply the patch automatically before the next network request.
To apply the patch directly:
- Follow the Google Documentation outlining the Security Provider update process.
To apply the patch via the Airship manifest:
- Add a metadata entry with the
com.urbanairship.INSTALL_NETWORK_SECURITY_PROVIDER
key set totrue
to yourAndroidManifest.xml
. This will prompt Airship to attempt to download the latest security provider the next time a network request is attempted.
<!-- Optional: Automatically install Google's secure network provider before any Airship request -->
