SENTSDK

The SENTSDK class is the main entry point for interacting with the SDK.

This document refers to deprecated parts of the platform and has been left intact to help customers with legacy integrations. In order to access the latest platform features and documentation, please go to https://docs.sentiance.com.

sharedInstance

Method to call the shared instance of the SDK.

tripDidTimeOut block will be called each time trip will time out

isVehicleCrashDetectionSupported:

Checks if vehicle crash detection is supported on the device for the specified trip type.

The result depends on multiple criteria, such as if vehicle crash detection is enabled for your app, and if the necessary sensors are present on the device.

Parameter
tripType	The type of trip for which you want to check

Parameter

tripType

The type of trip for which you want to check

invokeDummyVehicleCrash

Invokes a dummy vehicle crash event. Use this method to test your vehicle crash detection integration.

Calling this method will invoke the handler from setVehicleCrashHandler:or setCrashListener:depending on which handler was set last.

- (void)invokeDummyVehicleCrash;

This method is intended for testing your integration, and not for production use.

setCrashListener:

Deprecated

setCrashListener: is deprecated. Use setVehicleCrashHandler: instead.

Set vehicle crash detection block.

- (void)setVehicleCrashHandler:(void (^)(SENTVehicleCrashEvent *crashEvent))vehicleCrashHandler;

setUserActivityListener:

This method provides the enclosing app the ability to get SDK detection updates. So when the SDK is in a trip or a stationary, it informs the app via a callback, providing some extra information.

- (void)setUserActivityListerner:(void (^)(SENTUserActivity *userActivity))onChange;

getUserActivity

This method provides the enclosing app the ability to get SDK current user activity state. It is a trip or stationary with some enriched information.

Parameter

success

Success block which is to be called when forced submission completes.

failure

- (BOOL) isInitialised;

getInitState

Return state of inialization of the SDK: SENTNotInitialized, SENTInitInProgress, SENTInitialized

- (SENTSDKInitState) getInitState;

reset: failure:

The reset functionality is intended for removing all data in the device to handle a case such as a user logging out from an app or user requesting data deletion in the local app. It should not be used to reset the internal state of the SDK.

Resets the Sentiance SDK. Calling this method results in stopping of all SDK operations and deleting all SDK user data from the device. Additionally, the SDK will be uninitialized, allowing reinitialization and new Sentiance user creation.

The reset operation may take a while, in which case the SDK's initialization state will be set to InitState SENTResetting until it's complete. Calling any other SDK method during this time will either be ignored or return a default value.

Note that calling this method during intermediate initialization states (i.e. InitState SENTInitInProgress} and InitState SENTResetting will fail.

- (void)reset:(void(^)(void))success failure:(void(^)(SENTResetFailureReason reason))failure;

Parameter
success	Success block callback when reset successfully done
failure	Failure callback when with one of SENTResetFailureReason happened

Parameter

success

Success block callback when reset successfully done

failure

Failure callback when with one of SENTResetFailureReason happened

setTripProfileHandler:

Deprecated

This method was deprecated in v5.12.0, as part of the Trip Profiling feature deprecation.

Sets a block to execute after a trip finishes and is profiled on device. The profiling data is returned with a SENTTripProcessingTripProfile object.

Each SENTTripProcessingTripProfile contains multiple transport segments which each is assigned a SENTTripProcessingVehicleMode. The handler makes sure that only the transport segments that is assigned SENTTripProcessingVehicleModeVehicle are returned.

In order to use this handler, your app configuration must enable the trip profiling feature explicitly. Full trip profiling also needs to be disabled from the SDK. Please see [SENTSDK setFullTripProfilingEnabled:] for more details.

- (void)setTripProfileHandler:(void (^) (SENTTripProcessingTripProfile *tripProfile))tripProfileHandler;

Parameter
tripProfileHandler	The block to execute after a trip finishes and is profiled on device.

Parameter

tripProfileHandler

The block to execute after a trip finishes and is profiled on device.

setFullTripProfilingEnabled:

Deprecated

This method was deprecated in v5.12.0, as part of the Trip Profiling feature deprecation.

Changes the trip profiling mode the SDK is currently using.

Pass YES to let the trips being profiled on the Sentiance platform. If you previously set an on-device trip profiling handler via [SENTSDK setTripProfileHandler:], this also disables that handler. When NO is passed later, the handler continues to be called.

Pass NO to enable on-device trip profiling without uploading trip information to the Sentiance platform.

In order to use this method, your app configuration must enable the trip profiling feature explicitly.

- (void)setFullTripProfilingEnabled:(BOOL)enabled;

Parameter
enabled	The flag that enables or disables trips being profiled on the Sentiance platform

Parameter

enabled

The flag that enables or disables trips being profiled on the Sentiance platform

setSpeedLimit:

Deprecated

This method was deprecated in v5.12.0, as part of the Trip Profiling feature deprecation.

Sets a custom speed limit in m/s that will be used during on-device speeding estimation. Any value that is less than or equal to "0" will be ignored.

If a custom speed limit is not set, the SDK uses a value of 23 m/s as the default speed limit.

In order to use this method, your app configuration must enable the trip profiling feature explicitly.

- (void)setSpeedLimit:(double)speedLimit;

Parameter
speedLimit	The speed limit value that will be used during on-device speeding estimation

Parameter

speedLimit

The speed limit value that will be used during on-device speeding estimation
