Sample apps

You can use the sample apps available in the

BlackBerry Dynamics SDK for Android

to help you plan the development of your apps. The source code samples demonstrate how to apply

BlackBerry Dynamics

functionality. The most basic is the skeleton app, which can be used as a starting point for implementing your own projects with

BlackBerry Dynamics

using Enterprise Simulation Mode.

The samples are located in <sdk_install_directory>/samples/, or you can download them from the BlackBerry Developers for Enterprise Apps site.

All sample apps have

Android

Gradle configurations. You can load any of the apps in

Android Studio

. When you troubleshoot a

BlackBerry Dynamics

app, you should enable detailed logging from theconsole or build configuration.

It is recommended to make a copy of the source code in another location before making any changes. Reinstalling or upgrading will overwrite or even remove the sample apps in the default location.

Sample app	Description
Apache HTTP client	Provides an example of how to use BlackBerry Dynamics Secure Communication APIs to access resources behind the enterprise firewall. These secure communication APIs can be used to exchange data between the mobile app on the device and an application server using the secure BlackBerry Dynamics proxy infrastructure. In 4.0.0 and later, this sample supports HTTP PATCH requests.
AppBasedCertImport	Demonstrates how to create an app that can import a user's PKI credentials using the BlackBerry Dynamics Certificate Credential Import API. For more information, see Package com.good.gd.pki and Creating user credential profiles for app-based certificates in the UEM Administration Guide.
AppKinetics Shared Services	Provides three examples of how to use the BlackBerry Dynamics Shared Services Framework.
App policy	Provides an example of how to use application-specific policy APIs. App policies control specific features of a single app, compared to built-in policies that apply to all apps. This app also demonstrates how to support Night Mode.
Bypass Unlock	Illustrates how to program for the Bypass Unlock feature. For more information about Bypass Unlock, see User authentication.
Interaction	Provides an example of how to interact with the BlackBerry Dynamics Library and use the Remote Settings API. Displays which BlackBerry Dynamics events are happening. This can be helpful when using BlackBerry Dynamics for the first time. This app also demonstrates the use of the GDAndroid.executeBlock and GDAndroid.executeUnblock APIs that can be used to locally block or unblock a user’s access to the UI of a BlackBerry Dynamics app.
Greetings client/server	Demonstrates how to write a client and server that use the BlackBerry Dynamics Inter Container Communications (ICC) API. The ICC system exchanges data securely between two BlackBerry Dynamics applications running on the same mobile device so that data is not compromised during the exchange. As of the BlackBerry Dynamics SDK for Android 11.2 release, the Greetings Client sample app was updated to include Play Integrity attestation. For more information on Play Integrity , see Implementing Play Integrity attestation for BlackBerry Dynamics apps. The Greetings server app demonstrates how to support Night Mode.
Push channel	Demonstrates how to use the BlackBerry Dynamics Push infrastructure, including how to control the connection, create channels, and send messages in a loopback manner to the client. The Push Channel framework is a BlackBerry Dynamics feature used to receive real-time notifications from an application server.
Secure copy-cut-paste	Compares the use of secured BlackBerry Dynamics UI text controls (GDTextView, GDEditText, GDAutoCompleteTextView, GDSearchView, GDWebView) and the corresponding default UI text controls. Text data is encrypted or decrypted before copy or paste operations are performed. As of the BlackBerry Dynamics SDK for Android 11.2 release, new AppCompat compatible widgets (GDAppCompatTextView, GDAppCompatCheckedTextView, GDAppCompatAutoCompleteTextView, GDAppCompatMultiAutoCompleteTextView, GDAppCompatEditText, GDAppCompatSearchView) and a view class inflater (GDAppCompatViewInflater) were introduced to automatically inflate widgets, specified in layout files, into the correct BlackBerry Dynamics widget classes. For more information, see Data Leakage Prevention.
Secure SQL	Demonstrates how to use the secure SQL database, showing how to add, edit, delete, and list contacts. All data stored in the secure SQL database is encrypted on the device by the BlackBerry Dynamics Runtime.
Skeleton	Provides a basic skeleton application that you can use as a starting point for application development.
