Tealium for Android (Kotlin) release notes (By Date)

• HttpClient now supports only retrying on response codes that support retries.
• Fix: ResourceRetriever refresh interval affecting library settings being fetched too often.
• Fix: Reinstated missing ResourceEntity class

• Adding a RemoteCommand with a remote URL config now supports falling back to loading from an Asset named {command id}.json on the first launch.
  • If a file name is also provided, then it will use that name to lookup the Asset.
  • It is now safe to omit the .json extension on the filename parameter when adding a new remote command, although the .json extension of the actual file should still be present.
  • Fix: Refresh interval was not being adhered to
• Updated the module dependency minimum on com.tealium:kotlin-core to 1.6.0.

• The webview is refreshed on new sessions to ensure that the latest IQ configuration is available.

• Session data expiration bug fix: fixes an issue whereby session scoped data may not be expired on launch

• Database lock crash bug fix: Some uncaught exceptions in persistence led to possible crashes
• ProGuard rules updates to reinstate incorrectly obfuscated BatchDispatch class

• Fix: Data layer writes moved onto Tealium background thread

• Deep link handling limited to activities launched with intents where action == Intent.ACTION_VIEW

• New config option remoteApiEnabled to permit disabling of remote_api events when using the RemoteCommands and TagManagement modules.
