What did you do?

• Show an in-app message (either manually or through a campaign)
• Try authenticating via ASWebAuthenticationSession with the in-app message still shown on the screen
• Tap on a text field or do an action to show the keyboard

What did you expect to happen?

• The embedded web view stays opened and the keyboard is shown.

What happened instead?

• As soon as the keyboard is shown, the embedded web view is abruptly closed.

Steps to reproduce

• Show an in-app message
• Initialize a new ASWebAuthenticationSession#init
  • Third party authentication server URL can be used i.e. (https://github.com/login/oauth/authorize?client_id={clientId)
• Load the webpage via ASWebAuthenticationSession#start
• Tap on a text field or do an action to show the keyboard

Code Snippet

Are you doing any feature customizations that may relate to the issue? Can you share the code snippet?

No.

This issue seems to be originating from ABKInAppMessageWindowController#keyboardWasShown.

• When starting the authentication process, the view controller hosting the web view is launched within the in-app message window.
• Tapping on a field in the authentication form causes the keyboard to be shown, which in turn hides the entire window.

Sidenote: I was able to work around this issue in iOS 13 by utilizing a new property (presentationContextProvider) that tells the system in which UIWindow to show the embedded web view in.

Hey @n-p-s,

We recommend to avoid displaying an in-app message and running a web authentication session simultaneously. You may be able to use in-app message delegate methods to work around this issue or can use the workaround you already provided.

Thanks, Daniel
