Why the version bump to 8.x.x?
- This SDK has two sets of changes that require work by partner teams, we have increased the version number to reflect this. We have done our best to minimize the amount of work partners need to do in order to take this drop, the coding effort for both sets of changes should be less than a week for a developer familiar with the product. First we will discuss the feature work that requires app changes and then we will list the bug fixes and internal work that does require any app participation. Because this SDK has GDPR changes, please make sure that this SDK is in your app store apps by May.
New Features
- GDPR support: In order to meet MSFT's GDPR compliance requirement, we've made two sets of changes. The first is to rely in Powerlift's anonymizing functions to scrub EUPII (end user personally identifiable information) and PII. The second is that we're moving to use the ARIA framework for internal apps and pipeline for telemetry. Finally, this privacy link is the MAM/Intune Privacy link, please make sure that it is accessible from the app.
- To support our migration of the Intune Managed Browser to Edge, please add
microsoft-edge-http-intunemamandmicrosoft-edge-https-intunemamtoLSApplicationQueriesSchemesin the app's info.plist. - Additional frameworks: Please make sure to link against WebKit.framework and LocalAuthentication.framework, we now depend on these frameworks.
- Feature: Hook and managed Safari View controllers - no app uses this presently, this is a defensive fix. Please add
NSAllowsArbitraryLoadsInWebContentto your info.plist, otherwise some sites like Bing will not load correctly. - Improved Open-In Sharing support: iOS 11 changed so that we could no longer filter out unmanaged apps when you share content. In order to recapture this experience, which customers ask about monthly, we're asking apps to implement the Sharing Data via UIActivityViewController section of our integration guide as a whole since some apps will have to add an Action extension.
