- From npm
- npm install @zohocorp/zohodesk-portal-chatkit
- From yarn

If you are using only the Chat SDK, you must ensure that the zohodesk-portal-apikit and zohodesk-portal-configuration packages are also installed.
In app with React Native version <0.60, run the following command to link the library.
- react-native link @zohocorp/zohodesk-portal-core
react-native link @zohocorp/zohodesk-portal-kb
react-native link @zohocorp/zohodesk-portal-community
react-native link @zohocorp/zohodesk-portal-ticket
react-native link @zohocorp/zohodesk-portal-configuration
react-native link @zohocorp/zohodesk-portal-apikit
If zohodesk-portal-core is integrated, all the Desk modules will work. If the SalesIQ chat need to integrate the zohodesk-portal-salesiq along with zohodesk-portal-core plugin.
Please follow either of the following method to perform these steps.
For Android applications, this step involves the use of Maven.
The ASAP SDK for React Native is released at maven.zohodl.com. Therefore, you must mention the URL in your Android Project. To do this, open the Android folder of your React Native project in Android Studio and add the following Maven repository to the project-level build.gradle file:
allprojects{
repositories{
maven { url 'https://maven.zohodl.com/'}
maven { url 'https://downloads.zohocdn.com/wmslibrary' }
}
}
For iOS apps, this step involves the use of CocoaPods.
If the Podfile is already part of your React Native project, run the pod install command.
If the Podfile is not part of your project, run the following command from the iOS folder:
- pod init
If you are using React Native versions < 0.60, add the following code to your iOS Pod file in your_RN_project/ios/Podfile.
- pod 'RNZohoDeskPortalAPIKit', :path => '../node_modules/@zohocorp/zohodesk-portal-apikit/RNZohoDeskPortalAPIKit.podspec'
- pod 'RNZohoDeskPortalConfiguration', :path => '../node_modules/@zohocorp/zohodesk-portal-configuration/RNZohoDeskPortalConfiguration.podspec'
- pod 'RNZohoDeskPortalKB', :path => '../node_modules/@zohocorp/zohodesk-portal-kb/RNZohoDeskPortalKB.podspec'
- pod 'RNZohoDeskPortalTicket', :path => '../node_modules/@zohocorp/zohodesk-portal-ticket/RNZohoDeskPortalTicket.podspec'
- pod 'RNZohoDeskPortalCommunity', :path => '../node_modules/@zohocorp/zohodesk-portal-community/RNZohoDeskPortalCommunity.podspec'
- pod 'RNZohoDeskPortalCore', :path=>'../node_modules/@zohocorp/zohodesk-portal-core/RNZohoDeskPortalCore.podspec'
- #For chats
- pod 'RNZohoDeskPortalSalesIQ', :path => '../node_modules/@zohocorp/zohodesk-portal-salesiq/RNZohoDeskPortalSalesIQ.podspec'
- pod 'RNZohoDeskPortalChatKit', :path => '../node_modules/@zohocorp/zohodesk-portal-chatkit/RNZohoDeskPortalChatKit.podspec'
Then, run the pod install command from the iOS directory.
After installing the pod, open the iOS project in Xcode and navigate to Build Settings → Build Options. Under Build Options, set ALWAYS_EMBED_SWIFT_STANDARD_LIBRARIES to Yes.
Next, include the following keys and their descriptions in the Info.plist file of your app.
1. Privacy - Camera Usage Description,
