PingID SDK Integration Kit 1.9 (PingID SDK 1.13 package) for PingFederate

Mobile device access support for PingFederate Authentication API

  • PingID SDK’s integration with the PingFederate Authentication API for end-user interactions now supports mobile device access flows. See Integration with the PingFederate Authentication API in the PingID SDK documentation.

  • PingID SDK adapter core contract attributes have been extended with new values for pingid.sdk.status and related values for pingid.sdk.status.reason, for integration with the PingFederate Authentication API. New values for pingid.sdk.status:

    • com.pingidentity.pingidsdk.device_paired

    • com.pingidentity.pingidsdk.device_access_allowed

Push notification categories

  • Categories can be defined, so that any type of notification can be sent according to a category.

  • Similar to iOS push notification categories, from PingID SDK adapter for PingFederate 1.8 onwards, the 'category' attribute is sent in the push payload. This attribute can be used for creating different types of push notifications, as defined in the adapter.

  • The PingID SDK Authentication API has been extended with a new parameter:

    • pushCategory

  • Dynamic parameter support has been extended with a new parameter:

    • pingIdSdkCategory

  • PingID SDK CIBA Authenticator 1.1 (included in PingID SDK adapter for PingFederate 1.8), now supports push notification categories. See Configuring the CIBA Authenticator for PingID SDK.
