Requirements
Learn about the requirements for the Kustomer Chat iOS SDK.
This guide covers everything you need before you can install and use the Kustomer Chat iOS SDK.
Apple iOS development requirements
The Kustomer Chat iOS SDK requires the following minimum Apple iOS and Xcode versions:
Given Apple's deprecation of Xcode 12 & lower, all Kustomer iOS SDKs can only be built using Xcode 13 starting in version 2.6.2 of our SDK.
Kustomer platform permissions
To work with the Kustomer Chat SDK, you'll need at least Administrator-level permission sets to create API keys and to access the chat settings for your Kustomer organization.
Kustomer API Key
The Kustomer Chat SDK requires an API key with the org.tracking
role for your Kustomer organization.
You can manually generate an API key in your Kustomer Security settings.
Manually generate the API key
To generate the API key manually:
-
Go to Settings in your Kustomer app, and select Security > API Keys > Add API Key.
-
Enter a descriptive name for your API key. Set Roles to
org.tracking
and Expires (in days) to "No Expiration". -
Select Create to generate a new API Key. Save your API key in a secure location.
To learn more about Kustomer API keys, see API keys in the Kustomer Help Center.
Optional: Building your own UI
You can also disable all of our UI, and use the iOS Chat SDK with your own custom view controllers and interface. The
ChatProvider
andChatListener
classes let you interact with our API directly.See Build your own UI for more.
