In your XCode project, drag the CardinalMobile.framework
file into the Frameworks group in your Xcode Project. (Create the group if it does not already exist.) In the import dialog box, check the box to Copy items into the destinations group folder (or Destination: Copy items if needed). The iOS SDK files are now available for linking in your project.

Configuring Your Build Environment

Follow these to configure your build environment:

Open Xcode, and in the source list to the left of the main editor area, choose your project.

Under the Targets section, select your application and open the General
tab.

Expand the Embedded Binaries section and click the small plus (+
) at the bottom of the list.

From the list, add the CardinalMobile.framework
file.

Configuring the iOS SDK

Use CardinalSession new
to create a new instance of the cardinal object. Use the default configuration options. Study these examples to complete the iOS SDK configuration.

For more details on configuration options, refer to the table after the examples.

CardinalSession new (iOS SDK - Objective-C)

#import <CardinalMobile/CardinalMobile.h>

CardinalSession *session;

//Setup can be called in viewDidLoad
- (void)setupCardinalSession {
    session = [CardinalSession new]; 
    CardinalSessionConfiguration *config = [CardinalSessionConfiguration new];
    config.deploymentEnvironment = CardinalSessionEnvironmentProduction;
    config.timeout = CardinalSessionTimeoutStandard;
    config.uiType = CardinalSessionUITypeBoth;

    UiCustomization *yourCustomUi = [[UiCustomization alloc] init];
    //Set various customizations here. See "iOS UI Customization" documentation for detail.
    config.uiCustomization = yourCustomUi;
 
    CardinalSessionRenderTypeArray *renderType = [[CardinalSessionRenderTypeArray alloc] initWithObjects:
                               CardinalSessionRenderTypeOTP,
                               CardinalSessionRenderTypeHTML,
                               nil];
    config.renderType = renderType;
 
    config.enableQuickAuth = false;
    [session configure:config];
}

CardinalSession new (iOS SDK - Swift)

import CardinalMobile

var session : CardinalSession!
 
//Setup can be called in viewDidLoad
func setupCardinalSession{
    session = CardinalSession()
    var config = CardinalSessionConfiguration()
    config.deploymentEnvironment = .production
    config.timeout = 8000
    config.uiType = .both
 
    let yourCustomUi = UiCustomization()
    //Set various customizations here. See "iOS UI Customization" documentation for detail.
    config.uiCustomization = yourCustomUi
 
    config.renderType = [CardinalSessionRenderTypeOTP, CardinalSessionRenderTypeHTML]
    config.enableQuickAuth = true
    session.configure(config)
}

Setting Up the Initial Request

Requesting the cardinal session setup
process begins the communication process, authenticates your credentials (server JWT), and completes the data collection process. By the time the customer is ready to check out, all necessary preprocessing is complete.

Each time a user begins a mobile transaction, a unique value is assigned to the

consumerSessionId

API field to identify the session. This value ensures that the correct device data collection results are matched to each user request.

National Australia Bank

uses its

payerAuthEnrollService_referenceID

field to contain Cardinal's

consumerSessionId

value. You must assign the value of the

consumerSessionId

field to the

payerAuthEnrollService_referenceID

field so that

National Australia Bank

can also track the requests for each user session.

Study these code examples to understand how to complete setting up the cardinal session process. The function request must be placed in your Checkout ViewController.

Cardinal session setup (iOS SDK - Objective-C)

NSString *accountNumberString = @"1234567890123456";
NSString *jwtString = @"INSERT_YOUR_JWT_HERE";
 
[session setupWithJWT:jwtString 
          didComplete:^(NSString * _Nonnull consumerSessionId){
//
    // You may have your Submit button disabled on page load. Once you are 
    // setup for CCA, you may then enable it. This will prevent users 
    // from submitting their order before CCA is ready.
    //
} didValidate:^(CardinalResponse * _Nonnull validateResponse) {
    // Handle failed setup
    // If there was an error with setup, cardinal will call this 
    // function with validate response and empty serverJWT
}];

Cardinal session setup (iOS SDK - Swift)

let accountNumberString = "1234567890123456"
let jwtString = "INSERT_YOUR_JWT_HERE"

session.setup(jwtString: jwtString, completed: { (consumerSessionId: String) in
    //
    // You may have your Submit button disabled on page load. Once you 
    // are setup for CCA, you may then enable it. This will prevent 
    // users from submitting their order before CCA is ready.
    //
}) { (validateResponse: CardinalResponse) in
    // Handle failed setup
    // If there was an error with setup, cardinal will call this 
    // function with validate response and empty serverJWT
}
