Can't download Salesforce Snap-Ins SDK for Android from Maven

Question

I am trying to follow this documentation

I tried to install several features:

• 'com.salesforce. service:servicesdk:208.4.0'
• 'com.salesforce.service:chat-ui:1.1.1'
• 'com.salesforce.service:chat-core:1.1.1'

I've set the salesforce maven url:

repositories {
    mavenLocal()
    jcenter()
    maven {
        url "https://salesforcesos.com/android/maven/release"
    }
}

But I keep getting the same error.

Error:Failed to resolve: com.salesforce.service:servicesdk:208.4.0

I'm not under any proxy.

Is the documentation out of date? Or is there a way to get the SDK without Gradle?

Answer 1

The documentation you linked is up to date and is working for me. I verified by using the sample app at the link below. Can you clone that and see if it resolves your dependencies. https://github.com/forcedotcom/ServiceSDK-Android

I would suggest changing line 38 of the apps build.gradle from compile 'com.salesforce.service:servicesdk:+' to compile 'com.salesforce.service:servicesdk:208.4.0' to ensure you always use the same version of the sdk.

I will also note that the full gradle build will fail because there are some lint warnings becuase abortOnError is on. This will be updated in the future.
