Instrument Mode

In “Instrument Mode” the Payment Menu will display only one specific payment instrument instead of all configured on your merchant account. Please refer to the Payment Menu documentation for more information on when you should use this feature.

To use Instrument Mode with a Merchant Backend, set the instrument field of your payment order to a non-null value.

On Android, instrument is a String, but some common instruments are available int the PaymentInstruments class:

val paymentOrder = PaymentOrder(
    ...,
    instrument = PaymentInstruments.CREDIT_CARD,
    ...
)

val otherPaymentOrder = paymentOrder.copy(
    instrument = "SomeInstrument"
)

On iOS, instrument is an struct that wraps a String, and provides common instruments as static constants:

paymentOrder.instrument = .creditCard
paymentOrder.instrument = Instrument(rawValue: "SomeInstrument")

Changing The Instrument

If a payment order is created in instrument mode, the Merchant Backend Configuration will populate the instrument and availableInstruments fields of the ViewPaymentOrderInfo. This is also recommended to do if using instrument mode with a custom Configuration. This way, the containing application can observe the payment process and determine if it is in instrument mode, and display additional UI accordingly.

// paymentViewModel is a property of FragmentActivity
// lifecycleOwner should usually be viewLifecycleOwner if we are in a Fragment
paymentViewModel.richState.observe(this) { richState ->
    if (richState?.viewPaymentOrderInfo?.instrument != null) {
        // show instrument mode UI
    }
}

func paymentOrderDidShow(info: SwedbankPaySDK.ViewPaymentOrderInfo) {
    if info.instrument != nil {
        // show instrument mode UI
    }
}

To change the instrument of an ongoing payment order, call the updatePaymentOrder method. Its argument is passed to your Configuration, which must know how to interpret it. If using the Merchant Backend Configuration, the argument should be the new instrument to set.

Your Configuration should report the valid instruments for the ongoing payment order in the ViewPaymentOrderInfo.availableInstruments property. Your UI can observe this property to show only valid options to the user. The Merchant Backend Configuration populates this field when.

// On Android, updatePaymentOrder is part of PaymentViewModel
paymentViewModel.updatePaymentOrder(PaymentInstruments.INVOICE)

iOS

// On iOS, updatePaymentOrder is part of SwedbankPaySDKController
swedbankPaySDKController.updatePaymentOrder(SwedbankPaySDK.Instrument.invoice)

You should, of course, then observe when the update completes, and update your UI accordingly.
