...
When using the SDK for the first time, you need to obtain an API key. To do this, follow the steps below:
1.1 Obtaining a key using ApiCredentials
Create an instance of NMApiCredentials
with mandatory parameters (account ID, password, email ID, service ID) with one of the methods provided.
Call the + (void)obtainApiKeyWithCredentials:apiKeyType:completion:
method, to request a new API Key. A result is expected to come in the completion block. A requested API Key Type should be specified. To request a key for general SDK usage, use NMApiKeyTypeDefault
API key type. Optionally, map tiles service may require separate authentication, in this case NMApiKeyTypeTiles
API key type should be used.
Check received API Key and NSError
object. Non-empty error instance indicates a failed request. A type of received error. It’s error code corresponds an error type, specified in NMApiKeyObtainError
.
...
Code Block |
---|
|
NMApiCredentials *credentials = [NMApiCredentials alloc] initWithAccountId:@"yourAccountIdaccountId"
emailId:@"yourEmailyour@email.com"
password:@"yourPAsswordpassword"
serviceId:@(1234123);
[NMSdk obtainApiKeyWithCredentials:credentials apiKeyType:NMApiKeyTypeDefault completion:^(NSString * _Nullable apiKey, NSString * _Nullable newApiToken, NSError * _Nullable error) {
// if (error) {
// Handle error
// }
// if (apiKey && [apiKey lenght] > 0) {
// Store the received API key securely
// Now you can start the SDK
// [navmiiSDK startWithSettings:configurationSettings completion:nil];
// }
// Next time pass the key to the SDK via NMConfigurationSettings object
// NMConfigurationSettings *configurationSettings = [NMConfigurationSettings new];
// configurationSettings.apiKeyapiKeys = @{@(NMApiKeyTypeDefault): apiKey};
// [navmiiSDK startWithSettings:configurationSettings completion:nil];
}];
}); |
...
Code Block |
---|
|
func setupSdk() async {
do {
let apiKey = try await requestApiKey()
// Store the received API key securely
try await startSDK(with: apiKey)
} catch {
// Handle error
print(error)
}
}
func requestApiKey() async throws -> String {
let credentials = NMApiCredentials(accountId: "12345678accountId",
emailId: "your@email.com",
password: "Passwordpassword",
serviceId: 123456)
return try await NMSdk.obtainApiKey(withCredentials: credentials, apiKeyType: .default)
}
func startSDK(with apiKey: String) async throws {
let settings = NMConfigurationSettings()
settings.apiKey = apiKey
return try await sdk.start(withSettings: settings)
} |
If you need to use a separate key for tile servers, it can be obtained using the same method:
Objective-C
Code Block |
---|
[NMSdk obtainApiKeyWithCredentials:credentials apiKeyType:NMApiKeyTypeTiles completion:^(NSString * _Nullable apiKey, NSString * _Nullable newApiToken, NSError * _Nullable error) {
}); |
Swift
Code Block |
---|
|
func requestApiKey() async throws -> String {
return try await NMSdk.obtainApiKey(withCredentials: credentials, apiKeyType: .tiles)
} |
1.2 Obtaining a key for the offline SDK
To obtain a key for the offline SDK call the
+(void)obtainApiKeyWithAccountAuthenticationToken:completion:
static method, passing the account authentication token and a completion to receive a new API key and a new account token.
Example:
Objective-C
Code Block |
---|
|
NSString *token = @"your-api-token";
[NMSdk obtainApiKeyWithAccountAuthenticationToken:token completion:^(NSString * _Nullable apiKey, NSString * _Nullable newAccountAuthenticationToken, NSError * _Nullable error) {
// if (error) {
// Handle error
// }
// if (apiKey && [apiKey lenght] > 0) {
// Store the received API key securely
// Now you can start the SDK
// [navmiiSDK startWithSettings:configurationSettings completion:nil];
// }
// Next time pass the key to the SDK via NMConfigurationSettings object
// NMConfigurationSettings *configurationSettings = [NMConfigurationSettings new];
// configurationSettings.apiKeys = @{@(NMApiKeyTypeDefault): apiKey};
// [navmiiSDK startWithSettings:configurationSettings completion:nil];
// An optional parameter `newAccountAuthenticationToken` returned in cases
// where the account authentication token is near expiry or explicitly changed by the customer.
// The SDK must update its internal state to use this new account authentication token
// for subsequent API key requests (if applicable). This behavior aligns with the security policy
// to maintain secure interactions.
}];
}); |
2. Storing the API Key Securely
...
When initializing the SDK, pass the stored API key to the NMConfigurationSettings
. To update the key after the SDK has been initialized, use the - (void)updateApiKey:withType:
method:
Objective-C
Code Block |
---|
|
NSString *storedApiKey = // Retrieve the stored API key
[navmiiSDK updateApiKey:storedApiKey withType:NMApiKeyTypeDefault]; |
Swift
Code Block |
---|
|
let storedApiKey = // Retrieve the stored API key
sdk.updateApiKey(apiKey, withType: .default) |
If you have a separate key for tile servers, call this method again, passing NMApiKeyTypeTiles
as the second argument:
Objective-C
Code Block |
---|
|
NSString *storedApiKey = // Retrieve the stored API key
[navmiiSDK updateApiKey:storedApiKey withType:NMApiKeyTypeTiles]; |
Swift
Code Block |
---|
|
let storedApiKey = // Retrieve the stored API key
sdk.updateApiKey(apiKey, withType: .tiles) |
4. Handling API Key Expiration
...
For SDK methods explicitly called by users that require authentication, handle the ApiKeyExpired
status by obtaining a new API key as described in step 1.
For methods that implicitly make online requests, set up a listener to be notified of API key expiration. Follow the steps below:
Create a class that extends NMApiKeyExpiredListener
.
Implement the - (void)onApiKeyExpired:
method to handle the expiration event.
Add the listener using the - (void)addApiKeyExpiredListener
method.
When the listener is triggered, obtain a new API key as described in step 1.
Example:
Objective-C
Code Block |
---|
|
@interface MyApiKeyExpiredListener: NSObject<NMApiKeyExpireListener>
@end
@implementation MyApiKeyExpiredListener
- (void)onApiKeyExpired:(NMApiKeyType)apiKeyType {
}
@end
MyApiKeyExpiredListener *listener = [[MyApiKeyExpiredListener alloc] init];
[navmiiSDK addApiKeyExpiredListener: listener]; |
Swift
Code Block |
---|
|
class MyApiKeyExpiredListener: NSObject, NMApiKeyExpireListener {
func onApiKeyExpired(_ apiKeyType: NMApiKeyType) {
}
}
let listener = MyApiKeyExpiredListener()
sdk.addListener(listener: listener) |
The listener object retains when passed to the method. It you need to remove it when it's no longer needed using the - (void)removeApiKeyExpiredListener:
method:
Objective-C
Code Block |
---|
|
[navmiiSDK removeApiKeyExpiredListener: listener]; |
Swift
Code Block |
---|
|
sdk.removeListener(listener: listener) |
...
The API Key expiration status can be checked with - (BOOL)isApiKeyExpiredWithTypeisApiKeyExpiredForType:
method.
Objective-C
Code Block |
---|
|
BOOL isApiKeyExpired = [navmiiSDK isApiKeyExpiredWithTypeisApiKeyExpiredForType: NMApiKeyTypeDefault]; |
Swift
Code Block |
---|
|
let isApiKeyExpired = sdk.isApiKeyExpired(withTypeforType: .default) |
