Debugging Features

To help with investigating problematic scenarios, the SDK has some debugging features.

Android

The SDK normally attempts to keep the payment flow inside a WebView as far as possible. In case some payment instrument fails to work properly, it may be helpful to see if it is related to the WebView. To allow this, you can set a flag to immediately move the payment process to the browser app when it navigates away from the payment menu. In particular, if some card issuer’s flow opens a third-party application, but the process fails to return to your app, you should see if this option makes any difference.

Testing your application with this option enabled can also be useful in ascertaining that your “Android Intent callback” endpoint is working properly.

    .useBrowser(true)
    .build()

val manualArguments = Bundle()
manualArguments.putBoolean(
    PaymentFragment.ARG_USE_BROWSER,
    true
)

If a payment flow should open a third-party application, but this does not happen as expected, you can set a flag to display error dialogs when web content attempts to start an Activity, but it fails.

    true

iOS

As explained in the iOS documentation, the iOS SDK will, in some cases, open navigations out of the payment menu in Safari rather than the WKWebView. The SDK contains a list of redirects that we have tested to be working, but, of course, this list can be neither complete nor correct for all time. If you encounter a payment flow that opens in the WKWebView (i.e. does not open in Safari), but does not work correctly, you can make all navigations go to Safari to check if the flow has become incompatible with WKWebView. On the other hand, if you encounter a payment flow that opens in Safari and wish to investigate if it would work in the web view instead, you can make all navigations open in the web view.

swedbankPaySDKController.webRedirectBehavior = .AlwaysUseWebView

swedbankPaySDKController.webRedirectBehavior = .AlwaysUseBrowser

If you have set .AlwaysUseBrowser and discovered a site that works with WKWebView, you can set a webNavigationLogger to your SwedbankPaySDKController and make note of the URL. Then, modify your Configuration to allow that URL to be opened in the WKWebView. If using the Merchant Backend Configuration, add a additionalAllowedWebViewRedirects argument to your initializer. If using a custom Configuration, change your decidePolicyForPaymentMenuRedirect implementation accordingly.

let configuration = SwedbankPaySDK.MerchantBackendConfiguration(
    backendUrl: backendUrl,
    additionalAllowedWebViewRedirects: [.Domain("example.com")]
)

After you have verified that a domain works with WKWebView, please file an issue to have it added to the SDK’s bundled list.
