didReceiveRemoteNotification

This method is used to handle the received remote notification. Using this method a notification can be sent to the user or to notify the app with changes done on Webex Connect. A delivery report will be sent to the back end.

It is recommended to use the method - (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didReceiveRemoteNotification:(NSDictionary *)userInfo fetchCompletionHandler:(void (^)(UIBackgroundFetchResult result))completionHandler instead of this method. This method will not be invoked when you implement - (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didReceiveRemoteNotification:(NSDictionary *)userInfo fetchCompletionHandler:(void (^)(UIBackgroundFetchResult result))completionHandler .

  Syntax: - (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didReceiveRemoteNotification:(NSDictionary *)userInfo;

ICMessaging

The ICMessaging singleton class facilitates the ability to send and receive RTM messages and update the read status for RTM and Push.

- (void)sendClickedEventForTransactionId:(NSString *)transactionId forButton:(ICButton *)button completionHandler:(void(^)(NSError *error))completionHandler;

This method sends a click event to the messaging manager for the selected button and with the transaction id.

Syntax: - (void)sendClickedEventForTransactionId:(NSString *)transactionId forButton:(ICButton *)button completionHandler:(void(^)(NSError *error))completionHandler;

Parameters:

Return Value: nil

Sample Code:

[[ICMessaging shared] sendClickedEventForTransactionId:_message.transactionId forButton:_buttonObj completionHandler:^(NSError *error) {

NSLog(@"sendClickEvent ICInteractiveDataTypeWebURL error:%@",error);

}];

shared

This method is returns the ICMessaging singleton instance. The instance is created internally on demand.

Syntax: + (instancetype)shared;

Return Value: Returns ICMessaging singleton instance.

connect

Once the RT feature is enabled in the app asset created on Webex Connect and user registration is done, the App Developer can establish a connection between the app and Webex Connect platform by calling the connect method appropriately. This enables the messages sent from Webex Connect to be received on the app. When the application is running in the background, SDK is disconnected from Webex Connect. While in the disconnected state, incoming In-App messages are not received, however when the application comes to foreground again, SDK will establish a connection with the Webex Connect platform and allow messages to be received.

The connect method is used to establish a connection to receive Real-Time Messages from the Webex Connect platform. When the connection is successful, the status events are notified through ICMessagingDelegate didChangeConnectionStatus.

It throws an error as defined if the user is not currently registered to the Webex Connect or if RTM feature is not enabled in the policy.

Syntax: - (BOOL)connect:(NSError **)error;

Example:

NSError * error;
[ICMessaging shared].delegate = self;
[[ICMessaging shared] connect: & error];
if (error) {
    NSLog(@ "Connection Failed. Reason: %@", error.localizedDescription);
}

disconnect

This method is used to disconnect the connection between the app and the Webex Connect platform. If there is no active connection, then this method fails silently. When the disconnection is successful, the status events are notified through ICMessagingDelegate didChangeConnectionStatus.

It throws an error as defined if the user is not currently registered with Webex Connect or if RTM feature is not enabled in the policy.

  Syntax: - (BOOL)disconnect:(NSError **)error;

  Example:

NSError * error;
[[ICMessaging shared] disconnect: & error];
if (error) {
    NSLog(@ "Disconnection failed. Reason: %@", error.localizedDescription);
} else {
    NSLog(@ "Disconnection succeeded.");
}

subscribeTopic

This method is used to subscribe to the passed topic, allowing the SDK to receive messages on that topic. If the subscription succeeds, error in completionHandler will be null. Incoming messages are received through ICMessagingDelegate didReceiveMessage.

  Syntax: - (void)subscribeTopic:(NSString *)topic completionHandler: (void(^)(NSError *error))completionHandler;

  Parameters:

  Example:

[[ICMessaging shared] subscribeTopic:topic completionHandler:^(NSError *error)
{
    if (error)
    {
        NSLog(@"Subscription failed. Reason: %@", error.localizedDescription);
    }
    else
    {
        NSLog(@"Subscription succeeded.");
    }
}];

unsubscribeTopic

This method is used to unsubscribe to the passed topic, preventing the SDK to receive messages on that topic. The messages may still be received until the callback has reported success (error == nil). The results of the operation are reported through the completionHandler.

  Syntax: - (void)unsubscribeTopic:(NSString *)topic completionHandler:(void(^)(NSError *error))completionHandler;

  Parameters:

  Example:

[[ICMessaging shared] unsubscribeTopic:topic
                     	completionHandler:^(NSError *error)
{
    if (error)
    {
        NSLog(@"Unsubscription failed. Reason: %@", error.localizedDescription);
    }
    else
    {
        NSLog(@"Unsubscription succeeded.");
    }
}];

publishMessage

This method is used to publish the passed ICMessage instance through RTM connection. If the message is published, error in completionHandler will be nil.

  Syntax: - (void)publishMessage:(ICMessage *)message completionHandler:(void(^)(NSError *error))completionHandler;

  Parameters:

  Example:

ICMessage *icMessage = [ICMessage new];
icMessage.message = @"My message";
icMessage.thread = thread;
[[ICMessaging shared] publishMessage:icMessage
                       completionHandler:^(NSError *error)
{
    if (error)
    {
        NSLog(@"Publication failed. Reason: %@", error.localizedDescription);
    }
    else
    {
        NSLog(@"Publication succeeded.");
    }
}];

setMessageAsReadForTransactionId

This method is used to update the status of the message identified by transactionId as Read. If the message status is set to read, error in completionHandler will be nil.

  Parameters:

[[ICMessaging shared] setMessageAsReadForTransactionId:message.transactionId
                                     	completionHandler:^(NSError *error)
{
    if (error)
    {
        NSLog(@"Can't set the message: %@ to read. Reason: %@"
                  ,message.transactionId
                  ,error.localizedDescription);

    else
    {
        NSLog(@"Message:%@ has been set as read", message.transactionId);
    }
}];

setMessagesAsReadForTransactionIds

This method is used to update the status of the messages identified by transactionIds array as Read. The results of the operation are reported through the completionHandler.
