Deeplinking Squareup pos app is not working

The documentation link: https://developer.squareup.com/docs/pos-api/build-mobile-web#step-5-test-your-code suggest straight forward code like this:
<a href="intent:#Intent;
action=com.squareup.pos.action.CHARGE;
package=com.squareup;
S.browser_fallback_url=https://my.website.com/index.html;
S.com.squareup.pos.WEB_CALLBACK_URI=https://my.website.com/index.html;
S.com.squareup.pos.CLIENT_ID=sq0ids-yourClientId;
S.com.squareup.pos.API_VERSION=v2.0;
i.com.squareup.pos.TOTAL_AMOUNT=100;
S.com.squareup.pos.CURRENCY_CODE=USD;
S.com.squareup.pos.TENDER_TYPES=com.squareup.pos.TENDER_CARD,com.squareup.pos.TENDER_CASH;
end">Start Transaction</a>
I tested it and it does not open any link, my devide already have app installed.
When I try this code:
Take a QR code 2
It open play store app with squareup pos app information, I need to directly open the app and not play store screen of the app, is there any way?

*UPDATE:
I got transactions to work after adding S.com.squareup.pos.LOCATION_ID={{ my_location_id }}. The location ID can be found in Square Developer Portal > Locations. Also if the POS app is passcode protected, you have to open and login with passcode before sending transaction.
*END UPDATE
I've been working through this same issue. I still haven't gotten a transaction to work, but have at least gotten the app to open.
Make sure the CLIENT ID is your production application ID. NOT sandbox.
The WEB_CALLBACK_URI needs to match the Web Callback URL defined in your Square Developer Portal > Point Of Sale API.
I hope this helps. If you do figure this out and get transactions to work, please post your solution for me and others who are sure to run into this issue since the documentation is lacking.

Disable user login from multiple devices at the sametime, in Ejabberd/XMPP

Environment:
Ejabberd Version : 16.04
Smack-android-4.1.0
I'm working on an Android chat application. Currently, same user credentials can be used login from multiple devices.
The current scenario is as follows:
1. User logs in into the app in device A
2. Using the same username and password, the user logs successfully into the app in device B
3. Now device A says, it is disconnected, but continue the chat in device B
However, according to the given requirement, it should behave like this:
1. User logs in into the app in device A
2. Using the same username and password, when the user tries to log in from device B, it should not allow it.
(Since he is already logged in from device A)
Would be glad to hear your solutions/ideas on this. Thanks in advance.

So I managed to resolve the problem using the option resource_conflict
According to Ejabberd Configuring Docs
The option resource_conflict defines the action when a client attempts
to login to an account with a resource that is already connected. The
option syntax is:
resource_conflict: setresource|closenew|closeold: The possible values
match exactly the three possibilities described in XMPP Core: section
7.7.2.2. The default value is closeold. If the client uses old Jabber Non-SASL authentication (XEP-0078), then this option is not respected,
and the action performed is closeold.
So open ejabberd.yml and add the following line to that file.
resource_conflict: closenew
Then restart the ejabberd server.
Now it will disallow the resource binding attempt of the newly connecting client and maintain the session of the currently connected client.
References:
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6120#section-7.7.2.2
Read #rubycon's answer on this- https://stackoverflow.com/a/51860779/5361779

From XMPP spec:
"If there is already an active resource of the same name, the server MUST either (1) terminate the active resource and allow the newly-requested session, or (2) disallow the newly-requested session and maintain the active resource. Which of these the server does is up to the implementation, although it is RECOMMENDED to implement case #1."
More info here https://xmpp.org/rfcs/rfc3921.html#session
So your current scenario is a recommended one.
However, I have quickly checked for ejabberd src code and found it can be configured somehow (closeold -> closenew)
https://github.com/processone/ejabberd/blob/master/src/ejabberd_c2s.erl#L964
https://github.com/processone/ejabberd/blob/master/src/ejabberd_c2s.erl#L873
I'm not an Erlang specialist, but looks like it can be achieved by modifying the source code

If device B sets as resource one different than device A, both can be connected to the same account correctly. In your tests, device B sets the exact same resource than device A, and then ejabberd kicks the older session.
I see there's an option to limit the number of sessions an account can have active in the server. The problem is that it kicks the older session, but you would like to disallow the new login. See
https://docs.ejabberd.im/admin/configuration/#limiting-opened-sessions-with-acl

In web-based apps, how do I call a user's IMEI / UDID to the end of my web-based app's URL?

I'm making a pair of website-based apps for both Android and iOS interfaces, and I'm struggling with a part of it. Perhaps you guys could help me out!
I'm using Android Studio and Xcode, and launching the website through WebKit and WK WebView respectively. It's super simple, just an app which calls a website into it directly. No external navigation, nothing but a full-page website. And this part is working great!
But I do have one problem! I don't want my users to get consistently logged out if they close the app, or after a few hours of not using it. I'd like it to stay logged in for them, or to automatically log-in when they use it.
The maker of the website has given me a way to do this through the URL.
Basically, my URL currently is set up like "https://URL.com/x/y/z" and it goes to the website, and that is great, but I need to set it up to be "https://url.com/x/y/z/[insert user's IMEI or UDID here]". That unique ID from their Android device will keep them logged in. I've tested it using my own device with my own IMEI and it works great, but obviously using one specific identifier for everyone will not work. I just need it to call the specific user's IMEI or UDID into the URL, to complete it.
How should I go about this?

I am assuming that you are talking about an Android app that visualizes a website in an activity. On Android, you can retrieve the device's IMEI OR MEID string by calling:
android.telephony.TelephonyManager.getDeviceId().
But be warned, this requires that you add a permission to your manifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
You should inform your users why you are requesting this permission.

For iOS/Xcode, you can get the device UUID via UIDevice:
// Swift 4
let uuid = UIDevice.current.identifierForVendor!.uuidString
If you are targeting iOS 11 or newer, Apple introduced Device Check to get a device specific token. I personally haven't used it, but it sounds like it's use case is similar to what you're looking for.
Update:
From your comment, here is how'd you include it in the url string.
let urlString = "url.com/x/y/z/" + uuid

Integrating Air Watch Android Studio

I am very much new to AirWatch Concept but had gone thoroughly about AirWatch. I have gone through the following links,
http://developer.air-watch.com/android/application-configuration-with-the-android-sdk/
http://developer.air-watch.com/android/android-sdk-setup/
but in vain.
Could anyone please help me regarding the integration of Air Watch in Android ?
Things i have done so far,
I have created app in the https://apidev.awmdm.com, and i have added assignemnts. The question here is, How can i get the assignment details in my android application that were added in the Air Watch Console.
Help is really appreciated.
Update:
I am able to create and push the application from AIR WATCH CONSOLE to my Device. Now, the issue i am facing is, If i am adding some application configuration in the AIR WATCH CONSOLE, i am not able to get those details in my application.
I have gone through the below Url for the above scenario,
https://appconfig.org/android/ which is very much similar to https://appconfig.org/ios/
I have implemented those things that were mentioned in the above url but still then i am not able to get those details.Please let me know if i am wrong anywhere.
I got to know that the key value pairs that were being passed in Air watch console will be coming into com.apple.configuration.managed key in iOS. Does any one have an idea that how these key value pairs will come. As far as i know, they will be handled via Restriction Manager. But no idea/clue how to handle in Android.

Created a sample app and published to Play Store. App link as follows,
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.manu.samplemdm
Now, its a play store app. When I am sending Application Configuration but unable to receive it in the Application. Its giving me still empty bundle from the application.
Help would be really appreciated.
Help is really appreciated

Beside AirWatch Resources, which tells you how you can create an app and set the app configurations,key-value pairs, to push to your devices, You need to check out Android Restriction Manager API. Follow the steps described in the link.
How the whole process works is, AirWatch controls AndroidForWork environment after you set your MDM as AirWatch. And then, AirWatch manages the device from AirWatch console and it pushes the App Configuration to AndroidForWork in your device. You need to implement Android Restriction Manager to access to these data passed you by your MDM. It goes same for all of the MDMs in the Market.
Update:
In order to install your app into Work Container in the development phase, you can use adb to copy it from Personal Container to Work Container.
First, list all of the active users in the device:
./adb shell pm list users
And later, find the Work User's ID from the List of Users and set it in the command below along with your app's package name and App's Main Activity.
./adb shell am start —user 13 -n “your.apps.package.name/your.main.activity.package.name”
13 up there in the command is the Work User's ID. In my case, it's 13.
For more information about ./adb commands in Managed Profiles, see this link and check the most bottom of the page.

There are a couple of different approaches to integrating with AirWatch. It depends on the technology set you're trying to use. I think these are the 2 that are most relevant to you based on what I see in your post:
AirWatch SDK
AppConfig Standard
Both these approaches can accomplish similar functionality but each have different deployment requirements. It sounds like you have gone with the second approach which is using the AppConfig standard and the native APIs provided by Google to have an app read configuration values delivered through AirWatch.
One important thing to note is the AppConfig standard approach on Android requires the device to support "Android for Work" enrollment which is a relatively newer management protocol released by Google. It's worth noting that AirWatch does support Android for Work enrollment so it may just be a matter of getting your AirWatch test instance configured for "Android for Work enrollment" instead of the traditional older Android enrollment protocol. More information about Android for Work can be found here:
https://enterprise.google.com/android/solutions/personal/
If you're already a customer of AirWatch, it may be helpful to create an account here on their resource portal if you haven't done so already to get access to documentation about how you can setup Android for Work within AirWatch. https://resources.air-watch.com
I hope this helps.

How to integrate mirrorlink common api in android Application

friends I am new in mirrorlink common Api.I don't know to enable mirror link service in android application.Please anyone tell me steps and any tutorial link.
I already do following things :-
I get developer account from mirrorlink.com.
I attached certificate with my app(that get from software that available from https://causeway.carconnectivity.org) Documents.
I saved device EMI number in my ACMS account (https://acms.carconnectivity.org)
Now I know I missing mirror link code for launching and terminate all this code and permission in manifest file.
Actually, I don't know how to code in the application for mirrorlink. please help me for step no.4

The launch and terminate UPnP code should be placed in the MainActivity. For certification purposes, your app needs to handle the Terminate intent without coming to the foreground (if it is in the background). Even if you don't respond to the intents, the app should be usable in MirrorLink.
You don't need to do anything extra to enable framebuffer streaming, or audio streaming. (Though providing context information via IContextManager.setFramebufferContextInformation and IContextManager.setAudioContextInformation is needed to make sure that the head unit knows what is being provided to it.)
