v4.5.1

What's new

• The mimeType property in the ContentData class was added to enforce the Mime-Type for media content.

What's changed

• Removed FOREGROUND_SERVICE and FOREGROUND_SERVICE_DATA_SYNC permissions from the SDK's AndroidManifest.xml file.
  • These permissions were previously declared inside the SDK AAR and automatically merged into the host app's manifest via Android Manifest Merger, causing Google Play review rejections for apps that do not use the download feature.
  • Starting from this version, apps that use the download feature must declare these permissions explicitly in their own AndroidManifest.xml.
  • Apps that do not use the download feature are not affected and do not need to declare these permissions.
  • See the Download Feature Setup section in the QuickStart guide for details.
