Adding FoxHat to Your Project#
Step 1: Add the .aar File to Your Project#
1.
Copy the downloaded .aar file into the libs directory of your Android project.
2.
Open your build.gradle file (usually located in the app module) and add the following dependency:
Initializing FoxHat#
Once installed, the SDK needs to be configured using your Publishable Key, which can be found in the Dashboard .Emulator and Root Detection enabled by default
Creating tokens#
The SDK generates a token, which is a required field in the Risk and Filter APIs.It's recommended that you forward the request token as a request header to every request to your API, since then you won't need to update the app whenever you're adding new server-side calls to Castle. The default value of the header is X-FoxHat-Token, but you can specify the header name in the SDK configuration.
Token Expiration#
A new token value should to be generated for each request to your backend. A request token will expire after 60 seconds and should only be used during a single request to your backend. It's recommended that you implement the token generation as a client-side middleware which generates a new request token with each request to your backend.
