Get Started

Project Requirements

  • Android SDK 26+ Set defaultConfig's minSDK to 26+ in build.gradle:

Groovy:

android {
    defaultConfig {
        minSdk 26
    }
}

Kotlin:

android {
    defaultConfig {
        minSdk = 26
    }
}
  • Java 8+ Set target java 8 byte code for Android and Kotlin plugins respectively build.gradle:

Groovy:

android {
    compileOptions {
        sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    }

    kotlinOptions {
        jvmTarget = '1.8'
    }
}

Kotlin:

  android {
    compileOptions {
        sourceCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
     	targetCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
  	}

    kotlinOptions {
        jvmTarget = "1.8"
    }
	}

Prepare Frontegg workspace

Navigate to Frontegg Portal Settings, If you don't have application follow integration steps after signing up. Copy FronteggDomain to future steps from Frontegg Portal Domain

Setup Hosted Login

  • Navigate to Login Method Settings
  • Toggle Hosted login method
  • Add {{ANDROID_PACKAGE_NAME}}://{{FRONTEGG_BASE_URL}}/android/oauth/callback (for custom scheme)
  • Add https://{{FRONTEGG_BASE_URL}}/oauth/account/redirect/android/{{ANDROID_PACKAGE_NAME}} (for assetlinks)
  • Add {{FRONTEGG_BASE_URL}}/oauth/authorize
  • Replace ANDROID_PACKAGE_NAME with your application identifier
  • Replace FRONTEGG_BASE_URL with your Frontegg base url

Add Frontegg package to the project

  • Open you project
  • Find your app's build.gradle file
  • Add the following to your dependencies section:

Groovy:

    dependencies {
    // Add the Frontegg Android Kotlin SDK
    implementation 'com.frontegg.sdk:android:LATEST_VERSION'
    // Add Frontegg observables dependency
    implementation 'io.reactivex.rxjava3:rxkotlin:3.0.1'
}

Kotlin:

    dependencies {
    // Add the Frontegg Android Kotlin SDK
    implementation ("com.frontegg.sdk:android:LATEST_VERSION")
    // Add Frontegg observables dependency
    implementation 'io.reactivex.rxjava3:rxkotlin:3.0.1'
}

Set minimum sdk version

To set up your Android minimum sdk version, open the root gradle file atandroid/build.gradle, and add/edit the minSdkVersion under buildscript.ext:

Groovy:

buildscript {
    ext {
        minSdk = 26
        // ...
    }
}

Kotlin:

android {
    defaultConfig {
       minSdk = 26
       // ...
    }
}

Configure build config fields

To set up your Android application on to communicate with Frontegg, you have to add buildConfigField property the gradle android/app/build.gradle. This property will store frontegg hostname (without https) and client id from previous step:

Groovy:

def fronteggDomain = "FRONTEGG_DOMAIN_HOST.com" // without protocol https://
def fronteggClientId = "FRONTEGG_CLIENT_ID"

android {
    defaultConfig {

        manifestPlaceholders = [
                "package_name"      : applicationId,
                "frontegg_domain"   : fronteggDomain,
                "frontegg_client_id": fronteggClientId
        ]

        buildConfigField "String", 'FRONTEGG_DOMAIN', "\"$fronteggDomain\""
        buildConfigField "String", 'FRONTEGG_CLIENT_ID', "\"$fronteggClientId\""
    }


}

Kotlin:

val fronteggDomain = "FRONTEGG_DOMAIN_HOST.com" // without protocol https://
val fronteggClientId = "FRONTEGG_CLIENT_ID"

android {
    defaultConfig {

        manifestPlaceholders["package_name"] = applicationId.toString()
        manifestPlaceholders["frontegg_domain"] = fronteggDomain
        manifestPlaceholders["frontegg_client_id"] = fronteggClientId

        buildConfigField("String", "FRONTEGG_DOMAIN", "\"$fronteggDomain\"")
        buildConfigField("String", "FRONTEGG_CLIENT_ID", "\"$fronteggClientId\"")
    }

}

Add bundleConfig=true if not exists inside the android section inside the app gradle android/app/build.gradle

Groovy:

android {
    buildFeatures {
        buildConfig = true
    }
}

Kotlin:

android {
    buildFeatures {
        buildConfig = true
    }
}

Permissions

Add INTERNET permission to the app's manifest file.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS"/>

Initialize FronteggApp

Create a custom App class that extends android.app.Application to initialize FronteggApp:

package com.frontegg.demo

import android.app.Application
import com.frontegg.android.FronteggApp

class App : Application() {

    override fun onCreate() {
        super.onCreate()

        FronteggApp.init(
            BuildConfig.FRONTEGG_DOMAIN,
            BuildConfig.FRONTEGG_CLIENT_ID,
            this, // Application Context
        )
    }
}

Register the custom App in the app's manifest file

AndroidManifest.xml:

<application android:name=".App">
    <!--  ... -->
</application>

Enabling Chrome Custom Tabs for Social Login

To enable social login via Chrome Custom Tabs, set the useChromeCustomTabs flag to true during the initialization of FronteggApp. By default, the SDK uses the Chrome browser for social login.

  FronteggApp.init(
      BuildConfig.FRONTEGG_DOMAIN,
      BuildConfig.FRONTEGG_CLIENT_ID,
      this, // Application Context
      // ...
      useChromeCustomTabs = true
  )

Embedded Webview vs Custom Chrome Tab

Frontegg SDK supports two authentication methods:

  • Embedded Webview
  • Custom Chrome Tab

By default Frontegg SDK will use Embedded Webview, to use Custom Chrome Tab you have to set remove embedded activity by adding below code to the application manifest:

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
          xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
    <application>
        <!-- ... -->

        <activity
            android:name="com.frontegg.android.EmbeddedAuthActivity"
            android:enabled="false"
            tools:replace="android:enabled" />
        
        <activity
            android:name="com.frontegg.android.HostedAuthActivity"
            android:enabled="true"
            tools:replace="android:enabled" />

        <!-- ... -->
    </application>
</manifest>

Config Android AssetLinks

Configuring your Android AssetLinks is required for Magic Link authentication / Reset Password / Activate Account / login with IdPs.

To add your AssetLinks to your Frontegg application, you will need to update in each of your integrated Frontegg Environments the AssetLinks that you would like to use with that Environment. Send a POST request to https://api.frontegg.com/vendors/resources/associated-domains/v1/android with the following payload:

{
    "packageName": "YOUR_APPLICATION_PACKAGE_NAME",
    "sha256CertFingerprints": ["YOUR_KEYSTORE_CERT_FINGERPRINTS"]
}

Each Android app has multiple certificate fingerprint, to get your DEBUG sha256CertFingerprint you have to run the following command:

For Debug mode, run the following command and copy the SHA-256 value

NOTE: make sure to choose the Variant and Config equals to debug

./gradlew signingReport

###################
#  Example Output:
###################

#  Variant: debug
#  Config: debug
#  Store: /Users/davidfrontegg/.android/debug.keystore
#  Alias: AndroidDebugKey
#  MD5: 25:F5:99:23:FC:12:CA:10:8C:43:F4:02:7D:AD:DC:B6
#  SHA1: FC:3C:88:D6:BF:4E:62:2E:F0:24:1D:DB:D7:15:36:D6:3E:14:84:50
#  SHA-256: D9:6B:4A:FD:62:45:81:65:98:4D:5C:8C:A0:68:7B:7B:A5:31:BD:2B:9B:48:D9:CF:20:AE:56:FD:90:C1:C5:EE
#  Valid until: Tuesday, 18 June 2052

For Release mode, Extract the SHA256 using keytool from your Release keystore file:

keytool -list -v -keystore /PATH/file.jks -alias YourAlias -storepass *** -keypass ***

In order to use our API’s, follow this guide to generate a vendor token.

Multi-apps Support

This guide outlines the steps to configure your Android application to support multiple applications.

Step 1: Modify the Build.gradle file

Add FRONTEGG_APPLICATION_ID buildConfigField into the build.gradle file:

Groovy:

def fronteggApplicationId = "your-application-id-uuid"
...
android {
    ...
    buildConfigField "String", 'FRONTEGG_APPLICATION_ID', "\"$fronteggApplicationId\""
}

Kotlin:

val fronteggApplicationId = "your-application-id-uuid"
...
android {
    ...
    buildConfigField("String", "FRONTEGG_APPLICATION_ID", "\"$fronteggApplicationId\"")
}

Step 2: Modify the App File

Add BuildConfig.FRONTEGG_APPLICATION_ID to FronteggApp.init.

Example App.kt code:

class App : Application() {

    companion object {
        lateinit var instance: App
    }

    override fun onCreate() {
        super.onCreate()
        instance = this
        FronteggApp.init(
            BuildConfig.FRONTEGG_DOMAIN,
            BuildConfig.FRONTEGG_CLIENT_ID,
            this,
            BuildConfig.FRONTEGG_APPLICATION_ID, // here
        )
    }
}

Multi-Region Support

This guide outlines the steps to configure your Android application to support multiple regions.

Step 1: Modify the Build.gradle file

First, remove buildConfigFields from your build.gradle file:

Groovy:

android {
    //  remove these lines:
    //  buildConfigField "String", 'FRONTEGG_DOMAIN', "\"$fronteggDomain\""
    //  buildConfigField "String", 'FRONTEGG_CLIENT_ID', "\"$fronteggClientId\""
}

Kotlin:

android {
    //  remove these lines:
    //  buildConfigField("String", "FRONTEGG_DOMAIN", "\"$fronteggDomain\"")
    //  buildConfigField("String", "FRONTEGG_CLIENT_ID", "\"$fronteggClientId\"")
}

Step 2: Modify the App File

First, adjust your App.kt/java file to handle multiple regions:

Modifications:

  • Remove the existing FronteggApp.init function.
  • Add Call FronteggApp.initWithRegions with array of regions. This array will hold dictionaries for each region.

Example App.kt code:

class App : Application() {

    companion object {
        lateinit var instance: App
    }

    override fun onCreate() {
        super.onCreate()
        instance = this

        FronteggApp.initWithRegions(
            listOf(
                RegionConfig(
                    "eu",
                    "auth.davidantoon.me",
                    "b6adfe4c-d695-4c04-b95f-3ec9fd0c6cca"
                ),
                RegionConfig(
                    "us",
                    "davidprod.frontegg.com",
                    "d7d07347-2c57-4450-8418-0ec7ee6e096b"
                )
            ),
            this
        )
    }
}

Step 2: Add AssetLinks for Each Region

For each region, configuring your Android AssetLinks. This is vital for proper API routing and authentication. Follow Config Android AssetLinks to add your Android domains to your Frontegg application.

Step 3: Add Intent-Filter in Manifest.xml

The first domain will be placed automatically in the AndroidManifest.xml file. For each additional region, you will need to add an intent-filter. Replace ${FRONTEGG_DOMAIN_2} with the second domain from the previous step.

NOTE: if you are using Custom Chrome Tab you have to use android:name com.frontegg.android.HostedAuthActivity instead of com.frontegg.android.EmbeddedAuthActivity

<application>
    <activity android:exported="true" android:name="com.frontegg.android.EmbeddedAuthActivity"
              tools:node="merge">
        <intent-filter android:autoVerify="true">
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/>

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"/>

            <data android:scheme="https"/>
            <!-- DONT NOT COMBINE THE FOLLOWING LINES INTO ONE LINE-->
            <data android:host="${FRONTEGG_DOMAIN_2}"
                  android:pathPrefix="/oauth/account/activate"/>
            <data android:host="${FRONTEGG_DOMAIN_2}"
                  android:pathPrefix="/oauth/account/invitation/accept"/>
            <data android:host="${FRONTEGG_DOMAIN_2}"
                  android:pathPrefix="/oauth/account/reset-password"/>
            <data android:host="${FRONTEGG_DOMAIN_2}"
                  android:pathPrefix="/oauth/account/login/magic-link"/>
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>

    <activity android:exported="true" android:name="com.frontegg.android.AuthenticationActivity"
              tools:node="merge">
        <!-- DONT NOT COMBINE THE FOLLOWING FILTERS INTO ONE LINE-->
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/>

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"/>

            <data android:host="${FRONTEGG_DOMAIN_2}"
                  android:pathPrefix="/oauth/account/redirect/android/${package_name}"
                  android:scheme="https"/>
        </intent-filter>
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/>

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"/>

            <data android:host="${FRONTEGG_DOMAIN_2}" android:scheme="${package_name}"/>
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>
</application>

Step 3: Implement Region Selection UI

The final step is to implement a UI for the user to select their region. This can be done in any way you see fit. The example application uses a simple picker view to allow the user to select their region.

Important Considerations

  • Switching Regions: To switch regions, update the selection in Shared Preferences. If issues arise, a re-installation of the application might be necessary.
  • Data Isolation: Ensure data handling and APIs are region-specific to prevent data leakage between regions.
Select EU Region Select US Region
eu-region-example.gif us-region-example.gif

Example Region Selection UI: example code

package com.frontegg.demo

import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity
import android.os.Bundle
import android.widget.LinearLayout
import com.frontegg.android.FronteggApp

class RegionSelectionActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_region_selection)
    }


    override fun onResume() {
        super.onResume()

        val euButton = findViewById<LinearLayout>(R.id.euButton)
        val usButton = findViewById<LinearLayout>(R.id.usButton)

        euButton.setOnClickListener {
            FronteggApp.getInstance().initWithRegion("eu")
            finish()
        }

        usButton.setOnClickListener {
            FronteggApp.getInstance().initWithRegion("us")
            finish()
        }
    }
}

Setup for Gradle8+

Enable buildconfig feature:

  1. Add the below line to your gradle.properties:
android.defaults.buildfeatures.buildconfig=true
  1. Add the below lines to your app/build.gradle:

Groovy:

android {
    ...
    buildFeatures {
        buildConfig = true
    }
    ...
}

Kotlin:

android {
    ...
    buildFeatures {
        buildConfig = true
    }
    ...
}

Proguard setup (Optional)

If minifyEnabled and shrinkResources is true follow the instruction below:

Modify proguard-rules.pro:

# Gson relies on generic type information stored in class files when working with fields. 
# ProGuard removes this information by default, so we need to retain it.
-keepattributes Signature

# according to https://stackoverflow.com/a/76224937
# This is also required for R8 in compatibility mode, as several optimizations 
# (such as class merging and argument removal) may remove the generic signature.
# For more information, see:
# https://r8.googlesource.com/r8/+/refs/heads/main/compatibility-faq.md#troubleshooting-gson-gson
-keep class com.google.gson.reflect.TypeToken { *; }
-keep class * extends com.google.gson.reflect.TypeToken

# Retain GSON @Expose annotation attributes
-keepattributes AnnotationDefault,RuntimeVisibleAnnotations
-keep class com.google.gson.reflect.TypeToken { <fields>; }
-keepclassmembers class **$TypeAdapterFactory { <fields>; }

# Keep Frontegg classes
-keep class com.frontegg.android.utils.JWT { *; }
-keep class com.frontegg.android.models.** { *; }

# Retain Tink classes used for shared preferences encryption
-keep class com.google.crypto.tink.** { *; }

Usage

Login with Frontegg

In order to login with Frontegg, you have to call FronteggAuth.instance.login method with activtity context. Login method will open Frontegg hosted login page, and will return user data after successful login.

import com.frontegg.android.FronteggAuth

class FirstFragment : Fragment() {
    // ...

    override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {

        binding.loginButton.setOnClickListener {
            FronteggAuth.instance.login(requireActivity())
        }
    }
    // ...
}

Logout user

In order to logout user, you have to call FronteggAuth.instance.logout method. Logout method will clear all user data from the device.

import com.frontegg.android.FronteggAuth

class FirstFragment : Fragment() {
    // ...

    override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {

        binding.logoutButton.setOnClickListener {
            FronteggAuth.instance.logout()
        }
    }
    // ...
}

Switch Tenant

In order to switch tenant, you have to call FronteggAuth.instance.switchTenant method with activtity context.

import com.frontegg.android.FronteggAuth

class FirstFragment : Fragment() {
    // ...

    override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {

        val tenantIds = FronteggAuth.instance.user.value?.tenantIds ?: listOf()

        /**
         *  pick one from `tenantIds` list:
         */
        val tenantToSwitchTo = tenantIds[0]

        binding.switchTenant.setOnClickListener {
            FronteggAuth.instance.switchTenant(tenantToSwitchTo)
        }
    }
    // ...
}
