Steps for Attestation

• Obtain API key from Google Developer Console. The name of the API is Android Device Verification. Get the API_KEY from Credentials Section.
• Generate a nonce server side: This a unique token which should be generated server side. Google recommends atleast 16 byte long token.
• Invoke the cordova method
• Get the result from success callback. Send it to the server
• Send trhe sesult to android check to verify the payload server side.
• After extract the result. Compare the values and base your logic from the result.

Syntax for Attestation

You will need API key from Google APIs Console for initiating attestation.

A nonce security token from server side, is also required.

window.safetynet.attest(nonce ,API_Key ,successCallback ,errorCallback);

Success Callbacks

A JWS string is sent back as success. This is the same data obtained from getJwsResult(). This data should be again cross verified with google.

Syntax for Verify Apps API

Three methods are available for the SafetyNet Verify Apps API.

Check Verify App is Enabled

This method allows a check for Verify App(Play Protect). The result is a boolean in successcallback.

window.safetynet.checkAppVerification(successCallback, errorCallback)

Enable App Verification

This method allows you to enable App Verfication. A dialog is invoked to If the verification is already enabled , the successCallback returns true. successCallback is a boolean. It represnts the state of App verification.

window.safetynet.enableAppVerification(successCallback, errorCallback);

List Harmful Apps

This method lists harmful apps installed in a device. App verification/Play Protect is required to be enabled to process the request. The result is an array of objects in successCallback.

window.safetynet.listHarmfulApps(successCallback, errorCallback);
