Use BBM Enterprise SDK to develop real-time, end-to-end secure messaging capabilities in your own product or service.

Getting Started With BlackBerry Messenger Enterprise SDK

Preface

You can integrate the BBM Enterprise SDK into your Android, iOS , JavaScript ( Web or Node.js ) application by following the steps outlined in the platform specific guides below. You can download the SDK from the developer resources page .

Getting Started

The BBM Enterprise SDK does not manage user identities or contact relationships for applications. The user accounts in the BBM Enterprise SDK represent users in the SDK only. The SDK leverages OAuth and OpenID Connect so it can easily authenticate and associate users to their BBM Enterprise SDK accounts.

Identity Management

The BBM Enterprise SDK does not manage user identities or contact relationships for applications. The user accounts in the BBM Enterprise SDK represent users in the SDK only. Your application can reuse existing user accounts and social networks by associating those application accounts with BBM Enterprise SDK accounts.

User Management Service

A central feature of the BBM Enterprise SDK is the ability to allow applications to create chats and share rich messaging experiences. The following section highlights many of the features of those chats.

Chats

The BBM Enterprise SDK allows your application to have multiple instances running and connected at the same time for the same user. This ability is referred to as having Multiple Points of Presence , or MPoP .

Multiple Points of Presence

On Android and iOS devices, the BBM Enterprise SDK records statistics as it operates. Applications can collect these stats from the SDK and export them via any compatible statistics aggregation system. The SDK records stats that can be export by applications for offline analysis and reporting.

Statistics Collection

With the BB M Enterprise SDK, you can create true peer-to-peer connections that securely carry encrypted custom application data between two endpoints. These high-bandwidth connections allow you to create secure, real-time, and custom media streams or send application-specific protocol messages between endpoints for any purpose.

Peer-to-Peer Data Streams

The BBM Enterprise SDK provides secure messaging and encryption for chats, voice calls, and video calls. While the BBM Enterprise SDK encrypts and signs data before it leaves the endpoint, your application is responsible for distributing security keys.
