Urban Airship SDK version 9.7.1
Hi Team,
Currently we are using Compile time SDK 27 and UrbanAirship SDK version 9.5.5 in our application
1. For updating UrbanAirship SDK version to 9.7.1 do we need to updated our Compile time SDK 28 as UrbanAirship targeting to 28?
2. Do we need to update our play services versions as well to the latest version as UrbanAirship SDK(playservices version is 16) using?

Hi Team,
When I tried below the solution given by your team for security patch fix for sdk
<activity
android:name="com.urbanairship.actions.RateAppActivity"
android:exported="false"
tools:node="merge-only-attributes" />
We are getting below error
No enum constant com.android.manifmerger.NodeOperationType.MERGE-ONLY-ATTRIBUTES
Dependency :
implementation 'com.urbanairship.android:urbanairship-fcm:9.5.5'
Can you try the follow:
<activity
android:name="com.urbanairship.actions.RateAppActivity"
android:exported="false"
tools:node="remove" />
After adding tools:node="remove" , our app is building.
Is this is the fix for that security fix?
The fix is updating to 9.7.1, if you did this, you should be good.

Hi,
Our application compile and taget sdk is 26, as UrbanAirship need sdk version 28. In our app we have lot of module not migrated to 28 so we cannot taget to 28 as we have dependency . so we want to go with alternative solution as previous fix.
Just need clarification like if we are not updating UrbanAirship sdk version to 9.7.1 the solution would be adding below code in our manifest file. Is my understanding is correct?
<activity
android:name="com.urbanairship.actions.RateAppActivity"
android:exported="false"
tools:node="remove" />
Above code should be alternative for not updating UA library to 9.7.1?
Yes, that should be fine for now, but work towards updating as soon as you can.
