This sample app will show you how Link Android SDK can integrate with your own app in both Kotlin and Java. Check out the benefits of using the SDK.
Detailed instructions on how to integrate with Plaid Link for Android in your app can be found in our main documentation.
To run the sample app, you'll need a Plaid account. You can create one on our website.

Our change log has release history.
We create release candidates (e.g. 3.2.0-rc1) as beta previews for developers. These are helpful for customers who either are 1. waiting for a specific fix or 2. extremely eager for specific features. They do not hold the same quality guarantee as our official releases, and should NOT be used in production. The official releases come ~2 weeks after the first release candidate (rc1).
The latest version of Plaid Link is .
implementation("com.plaid.link:sdk-core:<insert latest version>")
R8 and ProGuard rules are already bundled in our AAR and will be used automatically.
Plaid releases updates to the SDK approximately every few months. For the best user experience, we recommend using the latest version of the SDK.
Major SDK versions are released annually. SDK versions are supported for two years; with each major SDK release, Plaid will stop officially supporting any previous SDK versions that are more than two years old.
While these older versions are expected to continue to work without disruption, Plaid will not provide assistance with unsupported SDK versions.
BREAKING: Removed deprecated support for public key authentication.
If your integration is using public key authentication, it's essential to migrate to Link Tokens. This change does not affect you if you've already made this transition. For detailed instructions, refer to Plaid's migration guide.
BREAKING: Removed extraParams(extraParams: Map<String, String>)
setter method from LinkTokenConfiguration#Builder
.
If your integration relies on extraParams
, you must now configure these parameters while creating your Link Tokens. Update your implementation accordingly.
The Link Android SDK version of Kotlin has been upgraded to 1.8 and may need to be updated in your project.
