# PingID SDK (October 19, 2020)

## Enhancements

PingID SDK has been extended with the following features:

### PingID SDK support for custom Syniverse account

PingID SDK has been extended to allow customers to use a custom Syniverse account instead of Ping Identity's account or customer's custom Twilio account, providing the following benefits:

* Avoid manual back-to-back billing (Ping-Customer)

* Cost leverage for customers with massive SMS and Voice usage

* Fallback to Ping Identity's Twilio account, or customers own custom Twilio account

A new PingID SDK Syniverse configuration section was added in the Administration Guide.

See [Configuring a Syniverse account for PingID SDK](../pingid_sdk/pid_configuring_syniverse_account_for_sdk.html).

### PingID SDK support for custom Twilio account

PingID SDK's existing support for custom Twilio accounts has been extended to allow customers to use a custom Syniverse account instead of Ping Identity's account as fallback, in cases of Twilio delivery failure.

See [Configuring a Twilio account for PingID SDK](../pingid_sdk/pid_configuring_twilio_account_pid_sdk.html).

### PingID SDK Admin Activity Report

The PingID SDK Admin Activity Report has been extended, so that SMS and Voice event messages include information about the organization's SMS and Voice provider.

## Deprecated features

The following PingID SDK API parameters are now deprecated.

If encountered, these parameters are ignored (as support for backward compatibility):

* [Offline devices (voice) pairing API](https://apidocs.pingidentity.com/pingid-sdk/guide/server-api/pid_c_SDKvoiceDevicesPair/): `vendor` parameter.

* [Authenticate with Voice](https://apidocs.pingidentity.com/pingid-sdk/guide/server-api/pid_c_SDKvoiceDevicesAuthenticate/): `voiceVendor` parameter.
