- Documentation
Changes
- Reduced the SDK footprint: AAR library has decreased in size by 6,86 %
- Significantly improved stability by refactoring transport layer to eliminate race conditions by design
- Added retrier logic for commands (like sendMessage, createConversation etc. which re-sends command in case when connection lost before reply for command arrived)
Breaking Changes
- For the
UNAUTHORIZED
error theErrorInfo.code
is now 5 (was 1) - In edge cases error codes and messages changed to more informative. So if your app relies on any specific error codes and/or messages - these cases should be double checked after updating to this version.

f746e085d3e95d45f98a4489a49080347cf0bf05850f0695243224b38b219d9d
- Documentation
Breaking changes
- Major under-the-hood improvement (the “Sessionless” protocol). This improvement is designed primarily for improved reliability. While this is not a breaking code change, it does carry a meaningful impact on timing:
- SDK commands will return success or failure up to ~10% more quickly than before.
- Real-time updates of data are now likely to arrive after the command completes. For example,
Conversation.updateAttributes()
will resolve successfully whileConversation#attributes
still contains the old value. To see the new value, we recommend waiting for an#updated
event.
- Some error messages have changed. For example, trying to leave a conversation you’re not part of will return error
50432, Participant not found
instead of50400, User not member of channel
. - Passing
null
toConversation.sendMessage
will result in the message body being an empty string. User.updateFriendlyName
no longer acceptsnull
as the value.Conversation.updateFriendlyName
no longer acceptsnull
as the value.
