Here are details on adding the Oracle Android SDK to your project.

To add the SDK using the Arctic Fox version of Android Studio or higher:
  1. Download the ODA Client SDK for Android and extract it to your local system.
  2. In Android Studio, select your project's app directory.
  3. Select the libs directory.
  4. Add com.oracle.bots.client.sdk.android.core-24.04.aar and com.oracle.bots.client.sdk.android.ui-24.04.aar to the libs folder.
  5. Add the following to the dependencies to the build.gradle (Module: app) file. These dependencies include:
    • The SDK library dependency
    • Core and UI dependencies - Used by the SDK library for the smooth functioning of library features.
      // SDK
implementation files('libs/com.oracle.bots.client.sdk.android.ui-24.04.aar')
implementation files('libs/com.oracle.bots.client.sdk.android.core-24.04.aar')

// Core dependencies
implementation 'androidx.room:room-runtime:2.4.2'
implementation 'io.socket:socket.io-client:0.8.3'
implementation 'androidx.core:core:1.8.0'

//UI dependencies
implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.4.2'
implementation 'androidx.constraintlayout:constraintlayout:2.1.4'
implementation 'androidx.webkit:webkit:1.4.0'
implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.6.1'
implementation 'com.intuit.sdp:sdp-android:1.0.6'
implementation 'com.squareup.picasso:picasso:2.5.2'
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:20.0.0'
For prior versions for Android Studio:
  1. Select your project's app directory and then click File > New > New Module.
  2. Choose Import JAR/.AAR Package and then click Next.
  3. Navigate to, and select, com.oracle.bots.client.sdk.android.core-24.04.aar. Click Finish.
  4. Repeat these steps to import com.oracle.bots.client.sdk.android.ui-24.04.aar.
    Note

    You don't need to import this package if you're using the SDK in headless mode.
  5. Ensure that these libraries are listed at the top of project's settings.gradle file. For example:
     include ':app', ':com.oracle.bots.client.sdk.android.core-24.04', ':com.oracle.bots.client.sdk.android.ui-24.04'
    rootProject.name = 'ODASDKSample'
  6. Add the following to the dependencies in the build.gradle (Module: app) file. These dependencies include:
    • The SDK library dependency
    • Core and UI dependencies which are used by the SDK library for the smooth functioning of library features.
       // SDK
       implementation files('libs/com.oracle.bots.client.sdk.android.ui-24.04.aar')
       implementation files('libs/com.oracle.bots.client.sdk.android.core-24.04.aar')

       // Core dependencies
       implementation 'androidx.room:room-runtime:2.5.1'
       implementation 'io.socket:socket.io-client:0.8.3'
