This release contains a regression that causes slower scans when in photo mode. Video source is not affected.
We're working on a fix for this issue.
This release moves BlinkID Web to v8003.0.0, and BlinkID Android and BlinkID iOS to v8002.0.0.
Simplified integration & settings presets
Global barcode & document expansion
documentAdditionalNumber replaced by cardAccessNumber:
documentOptionalAdditionalNumber replaced by cardAccessNumber:
documentAdditionalNumber replaced by passportNumber:
Added parentInfo support:
Added support for extracting Cyrillic firstName, lastName, nationality, and sex:
The following document/field combinations are now redacted by default, and you must explicitly unredact if you wish to maintain previous behavior:
This release includes one breaking change: the British Virgin Islands country identifier has been renamed from "Virgin Islands, British" to "British Virgin Islands".
The settings presets described above are exposed as four factories on the session settings, each returning a fully configured settings object:
The document video and document photo presets accept an optional use case object with these settings:
Other additions:
vehicleNumber, passportNumber, and trafficParticipantNumber.For exact identifiers and platform-specific changes, see the SDK release notes linked below, and each SDK's API reference.
These documents may not have a matching enum value in your SDK version.
To handle them, read the rawValue field, as described in Parse document class info.
Accelerated support for newly issued documents
Enhanced frame selection & image quality
Enhanced photo mode intelligence
Expanded & improved barcode capabilities
Parsing & extraction improvements
As part of the mandatory data redaction we have expanded the list with Netherlands DL QR code being redacted
parentInfo).sex, address, issuingAuthority, lastName and firstName, and latin sex.documentSubtype and specificDocumentValidity.lastName, firstName, placeOfBirth; added dateOfBirth.documentAdditionalNumber, cardAccessNumber should now be used.This release includes a small number of breaking changes.
The primary change that you will observe is that the documentClassInfo result object has changed its shape:
type subfield is now documentType on all platforms.id field that's an enum, that behaves in the same way as country, region and type used to behave in v8000rawValue field that's a string, and which allows over-the-air updates of the SDKFor most purposes, keep using the enum as you did before.
When a new document is supported, you can issue a quick patch by parsing it through rawValue.
For the exact values corresponding to such documents, look at our supported documents list and the associated JSON files.
Among other breaking changes, the document capture module settings no longer have inputImageCropped as a boolean; they now contain a cropType setting which accepts different values based on whether or not an input image is cropped (and how confident you are that it will be).
There are also some new fields: an aztecScanningEnabled setting has been added to barcode module settings, which allows you to scan Aztec barcodes; an ethnicity field is now extracted from documents; the parent info field now contains a fullName field where it has been extracted, and more.
For more detail, look at the SDK release notes linked below, and each SDK's API reference.
This is a major release with numerous breaking changes.
