There is Cordova example app inside the example-cordova directory and Ionic example app inside the example-ionic-capacitor directory. In there you can check how to integrate the Adjust SDK into your app.
These are the minimal steps required to integrate the Adjust SDK into your Cordova project.
You can get the latest version of the Adjust SDK from the npm repository or download the it from our releases page.
You can download our SDK directly as the plugin from npm repository. In order to do that, just execute this command in your project folder:
> cordova plugin add com.adjust.sdk
Fetching plugin "com.adjust.sdk" via npm
Installing "com.adjust.sdk" for android
Installing "com.adjust.sdk" for ios
In case you are using Ionic to build your app, you can add our SDK from awesome-cordova-plugins repo:
> npm install @awesome-cordova-plugins/adjust --save
> ionic cordova plugin add com.adjust.sdk
The Adjust SDK automatically registers with the Cordova events deviceready, resume and pause.
In your index.js file after you have received the deviceready event, add the following code to initialize the Adjust SDK:
var adjustConfig = new AdjustConfig("{YourAppToken}", AdjustConfig.EnvironmentSandbox);
Adjust.create(adjustConfig);Replace {YourAppToken} with your app token. You can find this in your dashboard.
Depending on whether you build your app for testing or for production, you must set environment with one of these values:
AdjustConfig.EnvironmentSandbox
AdjustConfig.EnvironmentProductionImportant: This value should be set to AdjustConfig.EnvironmentSandbox if and only if you or someone else is testing your app. Make sure to set the environment to AdjustConfig.EnvironmentProduction just before you publish the app. Set it back to AdjustConfig.EnvironmentSandbox when you start developing and testing it again.
We use this environment to distinguish between real traffic and test traffic from test devices. It is very important that you keep this value meaningful at all times! This is especially important if you are tracking revenue.
You can increase or decrease the amount of logs you see in tests by calling setLogLevel on your AdjustConfig instance with one of the following parameters:
adjustConfig.setLogLevel(AdjustConfig.LogLevelVerbose); // enable all logging
adjustConfig.setLogLevel(AdjustConfig.LogLevelDebug); // enable more logging
adjustConfig.setLogLevel(AdjustConfig.LogLevelInfo); // the default
adjustConfig.setLogLevel(AdjustConfig.LogLevelWarn); // disable info logging
adjustConfig.setLogLevel(AdjustConfig.LogLevelError); // disable warnings as well
adjustConfig.setLogLevel(AdjustConfig.LogLevelAssert); // disable errors as well
adjustConfig.setLogLevel(AdjustConfig.LogLevelSuppress); // disable all loggingOnce the Adjust SDK has been added to your app, certain tweeks are being performed so that the Adjust SDK can work properly. Everything that is being done in this process is written in the plugin.xml file of the Adjust SDK plugin. Below you can find a description of every additional thing that the Adjust SDK performs after you've added it to your app.
The Adjust SDK adds three permissions to your Android manifest file: INTERNET and ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE. You can find this setting in the plugin.xml file of the Adjust SDK plugin:
<config-file target="AndroidManifest.xml" parent="/manifest">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>
</config-file>INTERNETpermission is the permission that our SDK might need at any point in time.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATEis needed for reading MMC and MNC parameters.
If you are targeting Android 12 and above (API level 31), you need to add the com.google.android.gms.AD_ID permission to read the device's advertising ID. Add the following line to your plugin.xml to enable the permission:
<config-file target="AndroidManifest.xml" parent="/manifest">
<uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID"/>
</config>Important: The Adjust SDK includes the
com.google.android.gms.AD_IDpermission by default in version 4.32.0 and above.
You can remove the com.google.android.gms.AD_ID permission by adding a remove directive. Do this if need to make your app COPPA-compliant or if you do not target the Google Play Store.
<uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID" tools:node="remove"/>For more information, see Google's AdvertisingIdClient.Info documentation.
Since the August 1, 2014, apps in the Google Play Store must use the Google Advertising ID to uniquely identify each device. To allow the Adjust SDK to use the Google Advertising ID, you must add the Google Play Services dependency which allows reading of this parameter.
The Adjust SDK adds this dependency by default to your app. This is done with this line in the plugin.xml file:
<framework src="com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads-identifier:18.0.1" />To check whether the analytics part of the Google Play Services library has been successfully added to your app so that the Adjust SDK can read it properly, you should start your app by configuring the SDK to run in sandbox mode and set the log level to verbose. After that, track a session or some events in your app and observe the list of parameters in the verbose logs which are being read once the session or event has been tracked. If you see a parameter called gps_adid in there, you have successfully added the analytics part of the Google Play Services library to your app and our SDK is reading the necessary information from it.
If you are using Proguard, add these lines to your Proguard file:
-keep class com.adjust.sdk.** { *; }
-keep class com.google.android.gms.common.ConnectionResult {
int SUCCESS;
}
-keep class com.google.android.gms.ads.identifier.AdvertisingIdClient {
com.google.android.gms.ads.identifier.AdvertisingIdClient$Info getAdvertisingIdInfo(android.content.Context);
}
-keep class com.google.android.gms.ads.identifier.AdvertisingIdClient$Info {
java.lang.String getId();
boolean isLimitAdTrackingEnabled();
}
-keep public class com.android.installreferrer.** { *; }
If you are not publishing your app in the Google Play Store, use the following com.adjust.sdk package rules:
-keep public class com.adjust.sdk.** { *; }
In order to correctly attribute an install of your Android app to its source, Adjust needs information about the install referrer. This can be obtained by using the Google Play Referrer API or by catching the Google Play Store intent with a broadcast receiver.
Important: The Google Play Referrer API is newly introduced by Google with the express purpose of providing a more reliable and secure way of obtaining install referrer information and to aid attribution providers in the fight against click injection. It is strongly advised that you support this in your application. The Google Play Store intent is a less secure way of obtaining install referrer information. It will continue to exist in parallel with the new Google Play Referrer API temporarily, but it is set to be deprecated in future.
In order to support this in your app, the Adjust SDK adds support for it by default to your app. This is done with this line in the plugin.xml file:
<framework src="com.android.installreferrer:installreferrer:2.2" />installreferrer library is part of Google Maven repository, so in order to be able to build your app, you need to add Google Maven repository to your app's build.gradle file if you haven't added it already:
allprojects {
repositories {
jcenter()
maven {
url "https://maven.google.com"
}
}
}Also, make sure that you have paid attention to the Proguard settings chapter and that you have added all the rules mentioned in it, especially the one needed for this feature:
-keep public class com.android.installreferrer.** { *; }
This feature is supported if you are using the Adjust SDK v4.12.0 or above.
The Google Play Store INSTALL_REFERRER intent should be captured with a broadcast receiver. The Adjust install referrer broadcast receiver is added to your app by default. For more information, you can check our native Android SDK README. You can find this setting in the plugin.xml file of the the Adjust SDK plugin:
<config-file target="AndroidManifest.xml" parent="/manifest/application">
<receiver
android:name="com.adjust.sdk.AdjustReferrerReceiver"
android:exported="true">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.android.vending.INSTALL_REFERRER" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
</config-file>Please bear in mind that, if you are using your own broadcast receiver which handles the INSTALL_REFERRER intent, you don't need the Adjust broadcast receiver to be added to your manifest file. You can remove it, but inside your own receiver add the call to the Adjust broadcast receiver as described in our Android guide.
As of v4.21.1, the Adjust SDK supports install tracking on Huawei devices with Huawei App Gallery version 10.4 and higher. No additional integration steps are needed to start using the Huawei Referrer API.
Adjust SDK plugin adds these iOS frameworks to your generated Xcode project:
AdSupport.framework- This framework is needed so that SDK can access to IDFA value and (prior to iOS 14) LAT information.AdServices.framework- For devices running iOS 14.3 or higher, this framework allows the SDK to automatically handle attribution for ASA campaigns. It is required when leveraging the Apple Ads Attribution API.StoreKit.framework- This framework is needed for access toSKAdNetworkframework and for Adjust SDK to handle communication with it automatically in iOS 14 or later.AppTrackingTransparency.framework- This framework is needed in iOS 14 and later for SDK to be able to wrap user's tracking consent dialog and access to value of the user's consent to be tracked or not.
Settings for this can also be found in plugin.xml file of the Adjust SDK plugin:
<framework src="AdSupport.framework" weak="true" />
<framework src="StoreKit.framework" weak="true" />
<framework src="AdServices.framework" weak="true" />
<framework src="AppTrackingTransparency.framework" weak="true" />You can take advantage of the following features once the Adjust SDK is integrated into your project.
Note: This feature exists only in iOS platform.
For each package sent, the Adjust backend receives one of the following four (4) states of consent for access to app-related data that can be used for tracking the user or the device:
- Authorized
- Denied
- Not Determined
- Restricted
After a device receives an authorization request to approve access to app-related data, which is used for user device tracking, the returned status will either be Authorized or Denied.
Before a device receives an authorization request for access to app-related data, which is used for tracking the user or device, the returned status will be Not Determined.
If authorization to use app tracking data is restricted, the returned status will be Restricted.
The SDK has a built-in mechanism to receive an updated status after a user responds to the pop-up dialog, in case you don't want to customize your displayed dialog pop-up. To conveniently and efficiently communicate the new state of consent to the backend, Adjust SDK offers a wrapper around the app tracking authorization method described in the following chapter, App-tracking authorization wrapper.
Note: This feature exists only in iOS platform.
Adjust SDK offers the possibility to use it for requesting user authorization in accessing their app-related data. Adjust SDK has a wrapper built on top of the requestTrackingAuthorizationWithCompletionHandler: method, where you can as well define the callback method to get information about a user's choice. Also, with the use of this wrapper, as soon as a user responds to the pop-up dialog, it's then communicated back using your callback method. The SDK will also inform the backend of the user's choice. Integer value will be delivered via your callback method with the following meaning:
- 0:
ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatusNotDetermined - 1:
ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatusRestricted - 2:
ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatusDenied - 3:
ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatusAuthorized
To use this wrapper, you can call it as such:
Adjust.requestTrackingAuthorizationWithCompletionHandler(function(status) {
switch (status) {
case 0:
// ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatusNotDetermined case
break;
case 1:
// ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatusRestricted case
break;
case 2:
// ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatusDenied case
break;
case 3:
// ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatusAuthorized case
break;
}
});Note: This feature exists only in iOS platform.
To get the current app tracking authorization status you can call getAppTrackingAuthorizationStatus method of Adjust class that will return one of the following possibilities:
0: The user hasn't been asked yet1: The user device is restricted2: The user denied access to IDFA3: The user authorized access to IDFA-1: The status is not available
In cases where you are not using Adjust app-tracking authorization wrapper, Adjust SDK will not be able to know immediately upon answering the dialog what is the new value of app-tracking status. In situations like this, if you would want Adjust SDK to read the new app-tracking status value and communicate it to our backend, make sure to make a call to this method:
Adjust.checkForNewAttStatus();Note: This feature exists only in iOS platform.
If you have implemented the Adjust iOS SDK v4.23.0 or above and your app is running on iOS 14 and above, the communication with SKAdNetwork will be set on by default, although you can choose to turn it off. When set on, Adjust automatically registers for SKAdNetwork attribution when the SDK is initialized. If events are set up in the Adjust dashboard to receive conversion values, the Adjust backend sends the conversion value data to the SDK. The SDK then sets the conversion value. After Adjust receives the SKAdNetwork callback data, it is then displayed in the dashboard.
In case you don't want the Adjust SDK to automatically communicate with SKAdNetwork, you can disable that by calling the following method on configuration object:
adjustConfig.deactivateSKAdNetworkHandling();Note: This feature exists only in iOS platform.
You can use Adjust SDK wrapper method updateConversionValue to update SKAdNetwork conversion value for your user:
Adjust.updateConversionValue(6);Note: This feature exists only in iOS platform.
You can register callback to get notified each time when Adjust SDK updates conversion value for the user.
var adjustConfig = new AdjustConfig(appToken, environment);
adjustConfig.setConversionValueUpdatedCallbackListener(function(conversionValue) {
console.log("Conversion value updated callback recveived");
console.log("Conversion value: " + conversionValue);
});
Adjust.create(adjustConfig);You can use Adjust to track all kinds of events. Let's say you want to track every tap on a button. Simply create a new event token in your dashboard. Let's say that event token is abc123. You can add the following line in your button’s click handler method to track the click:
var adjustEvent = new AdjustEvent("abc123");
Adjust.trackEvent(adjustEvent);If your users can generate revenue by tapping on advertisements or making In-App Purchases, then you can track those revenues with events. Let's say a tap is worth €0.01. You could track the revenue event like this:
var adjustEvent = new AdjustEvent("abc123");
adjustEvent.setRevenue(0.01, "EUR");
Adjust.trackEvent(adjustEvent);When you set a currency token, Adjust will automatically convert the incoming revenues into a reporting revenue of your choice. Read more about currency conversion here.
You can also add an optional transaction ID to avoid tracking duplicate revenues. The last ten transaction IDs are remembered, and revenue events with duplicate transaction IDs are skipped. This is especially useful for In-App Purchase tracking. You can see an example below.
If you want to track in-app purchases, please make sure to call the trackEvent only if the transaction is finished and an item is purchased. That way you can avoid tracking revenue that is not actually being generated.
var adjustEvent = new AdjustEvent("abc123");
adjustEvent.setRevenue(0.01, "EUR");
adjustEvent.setTransactionId("{YourTransactionId}");
Adjust.trackEvent(adjustEvent);Note: Transaction ID is the iOS term, unique identifier for successfully finished Android In-App-Purchases is named Order ID.
You can also register a callback URL for that event in your dashboard and we will send a GET request to that URL whenever the event gets tracked. In that case you can also put some key-value pairs in an object and pass it to the trackEvent method. We will then append these named parameters to your callback URL.
For example, suppose you have registered the URL http://www.adjust.com/callback for your event with event token abc123 and execute the following lines:
var adjustEvent = new AdjustEvent("abc123");
adjustEvent.addCallbackParameter("key", "value");
adjustEvent.addCallbackParameter("foo", "bar");
Adjust.trackEvent(adjustEvent);In that case we would track the event and send a request to:
http://www.adjust.com/callback?key=value&foo=bar
It should be mentioned that we support a variety of placeholders like {idfa} for iOS or {gps_adid} for Android that can be used as parameter values. In the resulting callback the {idfa} placeholder would be replaced with the ID for Advertisers of the current device for iOS and the {gps_adid} would be replaced with the Google Advertising ID of the current device for Android. Also note that we don't store any of your custom parameters, but only append them to your callbacks. If you haven't registered a callback for an event, these parameters won't even be read.
You can read more about using URL callbacks, including a full list of available values, in our callbacks guide.
Similarly to the callback parameters mentioned above, you can also add parameters that Adjust will transmit to the network partners of your choice. You can activate these networks in your Adjust dashboard.
This works similarly to the callback parameters mentioned above, but can be added by calling the addPartnerParameter method on your AdjustEvent instance.
var adjustEvent = new AdjustEvent("abc123");
adjustEvent.addPartnerParameter("key", "value");
adjustEvent.addPartnerParameter("foo", "bar");
Adjust.trackEvent(adjustEvent);You can read more about special partners and networks in our guide to special partners.
You can also add custom string identifier to each event you want to track. This identifier will later be reported in event success and/or event failure callbacks to enable you to keep track on which event was successfully tracked or not. You can set this identifier by calling the setCallbackId method on your AdjustEvent instance:
var adjustEvent = new AdjustEvent("abc123");
adjustEvent.setCallbackId("Your-Custom-Id");
Adjust.trackEvent(adjustEvent);Note: This feature is only available in the SDK v4.22.0 and above.
You can track App Store and Play Store subscriptions and verify their validity with the Adjust SDK. After a subscription has been successfully purchased, make the following call to the Adjust SDK:
For App Store subscription:
var subscription = new AdjustAppStoreSubscription(price, currency, transactionId, receipt);
subscription.setTransactionDate(transactionDate);
subscription.setSalesRegion(salesRegion);
Adjust.trackAppStoreSubscription(subscription);For Play Store subscription:
var subscription = new AdjustPlayStoreSubscription(price, currency, sku, orderId, signature, purchaseToken);
subscription.setPurchaseTime(purchaseTime);
Adjust.trackPlayStoreSubscription(subscription);Subscription tracking parameters for App Store subscription:
- price
- currency (you need to pass currencyCode of the priceLocale object)
- transactionId
- receipt
- transactionDate
- salesRegion (you need to pass countryCode of the priceLocale object)
Subscription tracking parameters for Play Store subscription:
Note: Subscription tracking API offered by Adjust SDK expects all parameters to be passed as string values. Parameters described above are the ones which API exects you to pass to subscription object prior to tracking subscription. There are various libraries which are handling in app purchases in Cordova and each one of them should return information described above in some form upon successfully completed subscription purchase. You should locate where these parameters are placed in response you are getting from library you are using for in app purchases, extract those values and pass them to Adjust API as string values.
Just like with event tracking, you can attach callback and partner parameters to the subscription object as well:
For App Store subscription:
var subscription = new AdjustAppStoreSubscription(price, currency, transactionId, receipt);
subscription.setTransactionDate(transactionDate);
subscription.setSalesRegion(salesRegion);
// add callback parameters
subscription.addCallbackParameter("key", "value");
subscription.addCallbackParameter("foo", "bar");
// add partner parameters
subscription.addPartnerParameter("key", "value");
subscription.addPartnerParameter("foo", "bar");
Adjust.trackAppStoreSubscription(subscription);For Play Store subscription:
var subscription = new AdjustPlayStoreSubscription(price, currency, sku, orderId, signature, purchaseToken);
subscription.setPurchaseTime(purchaseTime);
// add callback parameters
subscription.addCallbackParameter("key", "value");
subscription.addCallbackParameter("foo", "bar");
// add partner parameters
subscription.addPartnerParameter("key", "value");
subscription.addPartnerParameter("foo", "bar");
Adjust.trackPlayStoreSubscription(subscription);Some parameters are saved to be sent in every event and session of the Adjust SDK. Once you have added any of these parameters, you don't need to add them every time, since they will be saved locally. If you add the same parameter twice, there will be no effect.
These session parameters can be called before the Adjust SDK is launched to make sure they are sent even on install. If you need to send them with an install, but can only obtain the needed values after launch, it's possible to delay the first launch of the Adjust SDK to allow this behaviour.
The same callback parameters that are registered for events can be also saved to be sent in every event or session of the Adjust SDK.
The session callback parameters have a similar interface of the event callback parameters. Instead of adding the key and its value to an event, it's added through a call to method addSessionCallbackParameter of the Adjust instance:
Adjust.addSessionCallbackParameter("foo", "bar");The session callback parameters will be merged with the callback parameters added to an event. The callback parameters added to an event have precedence over the session callback parameters. Meaning that, when adding a callback parameter to an event with the same key to one added from the session, the value that prevails is the callback parameter added to the event.
It's possible to remove a specific session callback parameter by passing the desiring key to the method removeSessionCallbackParameter of the Adjust instance:
Adjust.removeSessionCallbackParameter("foo");If you wish to remove all key and values from the session callback parameters, you can reset it with the method resetSessionCallbackParameters of the Adjust instance:
Adjust.resetSessionCallbackParameters();In the same way that there are session callback parameters that are sent for every event or session of the Adjust SDK, there are also session partner parameters.
These will be transmitted to network partners, for the integrations that have been activated in your Adjust dashboard.
The session partner parameters have a similar interface to the event partner parameters. Instead of adding the key and its value to an event, it's added through a call to method addSessionPartnerParameter of the Adjust instance:
Adjust.addSessionPartnerParameter("foo", "bar");The session partner parameters will be merged with the partner parameters added to an event. The partner parameters added to an event have precedence over the session partner parameters. Meaning that, when adding a partner parameter to an event with the same key to one added from the session, the value that prevails is the partner parameter added to the event.
It's possible to remove a specific session partner parameter by passing the desiring key to the method removeSessionPartnerParameter of the Adjust instance:
Adjust.removeSessionPartnerParameter("foo");If you wish to remove all keys and values from the session partner parameters, you can reset it with the method resetSessionPartnerParameters of the Adjust instance:
Adjust.resetSessionPartnerParameters();Delaying the start of the Adjust SDK allows your app some time to obtain session parameters, such as unique identifiers, to be sent on install.
Set the initial delay time in seconds with the setDelayStart field of the AdjustConfig instance:
adjustConfig.setDelayStart(5.5);In this case this will make the Adjust SDK not send the initial install session and any event created for 5.5 seconds. After this time is expired or if you call sendFirstPackages() of the Adjust instance in the meanwhile, every session parameter will be added to the delayed install session and events and the Adjust SDK will resume as usual.
The maximum delay start time of the Adjust SDK is 10 seconds.
You can register a listener to be notified of tracker attribution changes. Due to the different sources considered for attribution, this information cannot by provided synchronously. The simplest way is to create a single anonymous listener which is going to be called each time your user's attribution value changes:
With the AdjustConfig instance, before starting the SDK, add the anonymous listener:
var adjustConfig = new AdjustConfig(appToken, environment);
adjustConfig.setAttributionCallbackListener(function(attribution) {
// Printing all attribution properties.
console.log("Attribution changed!");
console.log(attribution.trackerToken);
console.log(attribution.trackerName);
console.log(attribution.network);
console.log(attribution.campaign);
console.log(attribution.adgroup);
console.log(attribution.creative);
console.log(attribution.clickLabel);
console.log(attribution.adid);
console.log(attribution.costType);
console.log(attribution.costAmount);
console.log(attribution.costCurrency);
});
Adjust.create(adjustConfig);Within the listener function you have access to the attribution parameters. Here is a quick summary of its properties:
trackerTokenthe tracker token of the current attribution.trackerNamethe tracker name of the current attribution.networkthe network grouping level of the current attribution.campaignthe campaign grouping level of the current attribution.adgroupthe ad group grouping level of the current attribution.creativethe creative grouping level of the current attribution.clickLabelthe click label of the current attribution.adidthe Adjust device identifier.costTypethe cost type.costAmountthe cost amount.costCurrencythe cost currency.
Please make sure to consider our applicable attribution data policies.
Note: The cost data - costType, costAmount & costCurrency are only available when configured in AdjustConfig by calling setNeedsCost method. If not configured or configured, but not being part of the attribution, these fields will have value null. This feature is available in SDK v4.26.0 and above.
You can register a callback to be notified of successful and failed tracked events and/or sessions.
Follow the same steps as for attribution callback to implement the following callback function for successfully tracked events:
var adjustConfig = new AdjustConfig(appToken, environment);
adjustConfig.setEventTrackingSucceededCallbackListener(function(eventSuccess) {
// Printing all event success properties.
console.log("Event tracking succeeded!");
console.log(eventSuccess.message);
console.log(eventSuccess.timestamp);
console.log(eventSuccess.eventToken);
console.log(eventSuccess.callbackId);
console.log(eventSuccess.adid);
console.log(eventSuccess.jsonResponse);
});
Adjust.create(adjustConfig);The following callback function for failed tracked events:
var adjustConfig = new AdjustConfig(appToken, environment);
adjustConfig.setEventTrackingFailedCallbackListener(function(eventFailure) {
// Printing all event failure properties.
console.log("Event tracking failed!");
console.log(eventFailure.message);
console.log(eventFailure.timestamp);
console.log(eventFailure.eventToken);
console.log(eventFailure.callbackId);
console.log(eventFailure.adid);
console.log(eventFailure.willRetry);
console.log(eventFailure.jsonResponse);
});
Adjust.create(adjustConfig);For successfully tracked sessions:
var adjustConfig = new AdjustConfig(appToken, environment);
adjustConfig.setSessionTrackingSucceededCallbackListener(function(sessionSuccess) {
// Printing all session success properties.
console.log("Session tracking succeeded!");
console.log(sessionSuccess.message);
console.log(sessionSuccess.timestamp);
console.log(sessionSuccess.adid);
console.log(sessionSuccess.jsonResponse);
});
Adjust.create(adjustConfig);And for failed tracked sessions:
var adjustConfig = new AdjustConfig(appToken, environment);
adjustConfig.setSessionTrackingFailedCallbackListener(function(sessionFailure) {
// Printing all session failure properties.
console.log("Session tracking failed!");
console.log(sessionFailure.message);
console.log(sessionFailure.timestamp);
console.log(sessionFailure.adid);
console.log(sessionFailure.willRetry);
console.log(sessionFailure.jsonResponse);
});
Adjust.create(adjustConfig);The callback functions will be called after the SDK tries to send a package to the server. Within the callback you have access to a response data object specifically for the callback. Here is a quick summary of the session response data properties:
var messagethe message from the server or the error logged by the SDK.var timestamptimestamp from the server.var adida unique device identifier provided by Adjust.var jsonResponsethe JSON object with the response from the server.
Both event response data objects contain:
var eventTokenthe event token, if the package tracked was an event.var callbackIdthe custom defined callback ID set on event object.
And both event and session failed objects also contain:
var willRetryindicates there will be an attempt to resend the package at a later time.
You can disable the Adjust SDK from tracking by invoking the method setEnabled of the Adjust instance with the enabled parameter as false. This setting is remembered between sessions, but it can only be activated after the first session.
Adjust.setEnabled(false);You can verify if the Adjust SDK is currently active with the method isEnabled of the Adjust instance. It is always possible to activate the Adjust SDK by invoking setEnabled with the parameter set to true.
You can put the Adjust SDK in offline mode to suspend transmission to our servers while retaining tracked data to be sent later. When in offline mode, all information is saved in a file, so be careful not to trigger too many events while in offline mode.
You can activate offline mode by calling the method setOfflineMode of the Adjust instance with the parameter true.
Adjust.setOfflineMode(true);Conversely, you can deactivate offline mode by calling setOfflineMode with false. When the Adjust SDK is put back in online mode, all saved information is send to our servers with the correct time information.
Unlike disabling tracking, this setting is not remembered between sessions. This means that the SDK is in online mode whenever it is started, even if the app was terminated in offline mode.
If your app makes heavy use of event tracking, you might want to delay some HTTP requests in order to send them in one batch every minute. You can enable event buffering with your AdjustConfig instance by calling setEventBufferingEnabled method:
var adjustConfig = new AdjustConfig(appToken, environment);
adjustConfig.setEventBufferingEnabled(true);
Adjust.create(adjustConfig);In accordance with article 17 of the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you can notify Adjust when a user has exercised their right to be forgotten. Calling the following method will instruct the Adjust SDK to communicate the user's choice to be forgotten to the Adjust backend:
Adjust.gdprForgetMe();Upon receiving this information, Adjust will erase the user's data and the Adjust SDK will stop tracking the user. No requests from this device will be sent to Adjust in the future.
You can notify Adjust when a user disables, enables, and re-enables data sharing with third-party partners.
Call the following method to instruct the Adjust SDK to communicate the user's choice to disable data sharing to the Adjust backend:
var adjustThirdPartySharing = new AdjustThirdPartySharing(false);
Adjust.trackThirdPartySharing(adjustThirdPartySharing);Upon receiving this information, Adjust will block the sharing of that specific user's data to partners and the Adjust SDK will continue to work as usual.
Call the following method to instruct the Adjust SDK to communicate the user's choice to share data or change data sharing, to the Adjust backend:
var adjustThirdPartySharing = new AdjustThirdPartySharing(true);
Adjust.trackThirdPartySharing(adjustThirdPartySharing);Upon receiving this information, Adjust changes sharing the specific user's data to partners. The Adjust SDK will continue to work as expected.
Call the following method to instruct the Adjust SDK to send the granular options to the Adjust backend:
var adjustThirdPartySharing = new AdjustThirdPartySharing(null);
adjustThirdPartySharing.addGranularOption("PartnerA", "foo", "bar");
Adjust.trackThirdPartySharing(adjustThirdPartySharing);You can notify Adjust when a user exercises their right to change data sharing with partners for marketing purposes, but they allow data sharing for statistical purposes.
Call the following method to instruct the Adjust SDK to communicate the user's choice to change data sharing, to the Adjust backend:
Adjust.trackMeasurementConsent(true);Upon receiving this information, Adjust changes sharing the specific user's data to partners. The Adjust SDK will continue to work as expected.
When you set up the SDK Signature, each SDK communication package is "signed". This lets Adjust’s servers easily detect and reject any install activity that is not legitimate.
There are just a few steps involved in setting up the SDK Signature. Please contact your Technical Account Manager or [email protected] to get started.
The default behaviour of the Adjust SDK is to pause sending HTTP requests while the app is in the background. You can change this in your AdjustConfig instance by calling setSendInBackground method:
var adjustConfig = new AdjustConfig(appToken, environment);
adjustConfig.setSendInBackground(true);
Adjust.create(adjustConfig);If nothing is set, sending in background is disabled by default.
Certain services (such as Google Analytics) require you to coordinate Device and Client IDs in order to prevent duplicate reporting.
To obtain the IDFA, call the getIdfa method of the Adjust instance. You need to pass a callback to that method in order to obtain the value:
Adjust.getIdfa(function(idfa) {
// Use idfa value.
});The Google Play Services Advertising Identifier (Google advertising ID) is a unique identifier for a device. Users can opt out of sharing their Google advertising ID by toggling the "Opt out of Ads Personalization" setting on their device. When a user has enabled this setting, the Adjust SDK returns a string of zeros when trying to read the Google advertising ID.
Important: If you are targeting Android 12 and above (API level 31), you need to add the
com.google.android.gms.AD_IDpermission to your app. If you do not add this permission, you will not be able to read the Google advertising ID even if the user has not opted out of sharing their ID.
If you need to obtain the Google Advertising ID, you can call the getGoogleAdId method of the Adjust instance. You need to pass a callback to that method in order to obtain the value:
Adjust.getGoogleAdId(function(googleAdId) {
// Use googleAdId value.
});Inside the callback method you will have access to the Google Advertising ID as the variable googleAdId.
If you need to obtain the Amazon advertising ID, you can call the getAmazonAdId method on Adjust instance:
Adjust.getAmazonAdId(function(amazonAdId) {
// Use amazonAdId value.
});Inside the callback method you will have access to the Amazon Advertising ID as the variable amazonAdId.
For every device with your app installed on it, the Adjust backend generates a unique Adjust device identifier (adid). In order to obtain this identifier, call the getAdid method of the Adjust instance. You need to pass a callback to that method in order to obtain the value:
Adjust.getAdid(function(adid) {
// Use adid value.
});Note: Information about the adid is only available after an app installation has been tracked by the Adjust backend. From that moment on, the Adjust SDK has information about the device adid and you can access it with this method. So, it is not possible to access the adid value before the SDK has been initialised and installation of your app has been successfully tracked.
Note If you want to use external device IDs, please contact your Adjust representative. They will talk you through the best approach for your use case.
An external device identifier is a custom value that you can assign to a device or user. They can help you to recognize users across sessions and platforms. They can also help you to deduplicate installs by user so that a user isn't counted as multiple new installs.
You can also use an external device ID as a custom identifier for a device. This can be useful if you use these identifiers elsewhere and want to keep continuity.
Check out our external device identifiers article for more information.
Note This setting requires Adjust SDK v4.21.0 or later.
To set an external device ID, assign the identifier to the externalDeviceId property of your config instance. Do this before you initialize the Adjust SDK.
adjustConfig.setExternalDeviceId("{Your-External-Device-Id}");Important: You need to make sure this ID is unique to the user or device depending on your use-case. Using the same ID across different users or devices could lead to duplicated data. Talk to your Adjust representative for more information.
If you want to use the external device ID in your business analytics, you can pass it as a session callback parameter. See the section on session callback parameters for more information.
You can import existing external device IDs into Adjust. This ensures that the backend matches future data to your existing device records. If you want to do this, please contact your Adjust representative.
As described in the attribution callback section, this callback is triggered, providing you with information about a new attribution whenever it changes. If you want to access information about a user's current attribution whenever you need it, you can make a call to the getAttribution method of the Adjust instance:
Adjust.getAttribution(function(attribution) {
// Use attribution object in same way like in attribution callback.
});Note: Information about current attribution is only available after an app installation has been tracked by the Adjust backend and the attribution callback has been triggered. From that moment on, the Adjust SDK has information about a user's attribution and you can access it with this method. So, it is not possible to access a user's attribution value before the SDK has been initialised and an attribution callback has been triggered.
To send us the push notification token, add the following call to Adjust whenever you get your token in the app or when it gets updated:
Adjust.setPushToken("YourPushNotificationsToken");Push tokens are used for Audience Builder and client callbacks, and they are required for the uninstall tracking feature.
If you want to use the Adjust SDK to recognize users that found your app pre-installed on their device, follow these steps.
-
Create a new tracker in your dashboard.
-
Open your app delegate and add set the default tracker of your
AdjustConfiginstance:var adjustConfig = new AdjustConfig(appToken, environment); adjustConfig.setDefaultTracker("{TrackerToken}"); Adjust.create(adjustConfig);
Replace {TrackerToken} with the tracker token you created in step 2. Please note that the dashboard displays a tracker
URL (including http://app.adjust.com/). In your source code, you should specify only the six-character token and not the
entire URL.
-
Build and run your app. You should see a line like the following in the app's log output:
Default tracker: 'abc123'
If you are using the Adjust tracker URL with an option to deep link into your app from the URL, there is the possibility to get info about the deep link URL and its content. Hitting the URL can happen when the user has your app already installed (standard deep linking scenario) or if they don't have the app on their device (deferred deep linking scenario).
Standard deep linking scenario is a platform specific feature and in order to support it, you need to add some additional settings to your app. If your user already has the app installed and hits the tracker URL with deep link information in it, your application will be opened and the content of the deep link will be sent to your app so that you can parse it and decide what to do next.
Note for iOS: With the introduction of iOS 9, Apple has changed the way deep linking is handled in the app. Depending on which scenario you want to use for your app (or if you want to use them both to support a wide range of devices), you need to set up your app to handle one or both of the following scenarios.
To support deep linking handling in your app for Android and iOS 8 and earlier versions, you can use the Custom URL Scheme plugin which can be found here.
After you successfully integrate this plugin, in the callback method used with the plugin described in this section you will have an access to the content of the URL which opened your app on user's device:
function handleOpenURL(url) {
setTimeout(function () {
// Check content of the url object and get information about the URL.
}, 300);
};By completing integration of this plugin, you should be able to handle deep linking in Android and iOS 8 and lower.
Starting from iOS 9, Apple has introduced suppressed support for old style deep linking with custom URL schemes like described above in favour of universal links. If you want to support deep linking in your app for iOS 9 and higher, you need to add support for universal links handling.
First thing you need to do is to enable universal links for your app in the Adjust dashboard. Instructions on how to do that can be found in our native iOS SDK README.
After you have enabled universal links handling for your app in your dashboard, you need to add support for it in your app as well. You can achieve this by adding this plugin to your cordova app. Please, read the README of this plugin, because it precisely describes what should be done in order to properly integrate it.
Note: You can disregard any information in the README that states that you need to have a domain and website or you need to upload a file to the root of your domain. Adjust is taking care of this instead of you and you can skip these parts of the README. Also, you don't need to follow the instructions of this plugin for the Android platform, because deep linking in Android is still being handled with Custom URL scheme plugin.
To complete the integration of Cordova Universal Links Plugin after successfully enabling universal links for your app in the Adjust dashboard you must:
You need to add following entry to your config.xml file:
<widget>
<universal-links>
<host name="[hash].adj.st" scheme="https" event="adjustDeepLinking" />
</universal-links>
</widget>You should replace the [hash] value with the value you generated on the Adjust dashboard. You can name the event also how ever you like.
Go to the Cordova Universal Links Plugin install directory in your app and check the ul_web_hooks/ios/ folder content. In there, you should see a generated file with the name [hash].ulink.adjust.com#apple-app-site-association. The content of that file should look like this:
{
"applinks": {
"apps": [],
"details": [
{
"appID": "<YOUR_TEAM_ID_FROM_MEMBER_CENTER>.com.adjust.examples",
"paths": [
"/ulink/*"
]
}
]
}
}
After the deviceready event gets fired, you should subscribe to the event you have defined in your config.xml file, and define the callback method which gets fired once the event is triggered. Because you don't need this plugin to handle deep linking in Android, you can only need to subscribe to it if your app is running on an iOS device.
// ...
var app = {
initialize: function() {
this.bindEvents();
},
bindEvents: function() {
document.addEventListener('deviceready', this.onDeviceReady, false);
},
onDeviceReady: function() {
if (device.platform == "iOS") {
universalLinks.subscribe('adjustDeepLinking', app.didLaunchAppFromLink);
}
},
didLaunchAppFromLink: function(eventData) {
// Check content of the eventData.url object and get information about the URL.
}
}
// ...By completing these steps, you have successfully added support for deep linking for iOS 9 and above as well.
While deferred deep linking is not supported out of the box on Android and iOS, our Adjust SDK makes it possible.
In order to get info about the URL content in a deferred deep linking scenario, you should set a callback method on the AdjustConfig object which will receive one parameter where the content of the URL will be delivered. You should set this method on the config object by calling the method setDeferredDeeplinkCallbackListener:
var adjustConfig = new AdjustConfig(appToken, environment);
adjustConfig.setDeferredDeeplinkCallbackListener(function(deeplink) {
console.log("Deferred deep link URL content: " + deeplink);
});
Adjust.create(adjustConfig);In deferred deep linking scenario, there is one additional setting which can be set on the AdjustConfig object. Once the Adjust SDK gets the deferred deep link info, we are offering you the possibility to choose whether our SDK should open this URL or not. You can choose to set this option by calling the setShouldLaunchDeeplink method on the config object:
var adjustConfig = new AdjustConfig(appToken, environment);
adjustConfig.setShouldLaunchDeeplink(true);
// or adjustConfig.setShouldLaunchDeeplink(false);
adjustConfig.setDeferredDeeplinkCallbackListener(function(deeplink) {
console.log("Deferred deep link URL content: " + deeplink);
});
Adjust.create(adjustConfig);If nothing is set, the Adjust SDK will always try to launch the URL by default.
Adjust enables you to run re-engagement campaigns by using deep links. For more information on this, please check our official docs.
If you are using this feature, in order for your user to be properly reattributed, you need to make one additional call to the Adjust SDK in your app.
Once you have received deep link content information in your app, add a call to appWillOpenUrl method of the Adjust instance. By making this call, the Adjust SDK will try to find if there is any new attribution info inside of the deep link and if any, it will be sent to the Adjust backend. If your user should be reattributed due to a click on the Adjust tracker URL with deep link content in it, you will see the attribution callback in your app being triggered with new attribution info for this user.
In the code examples described above, a call to the appWillOpenUrl method should be done like this:
function handleOpenURL(url) {
setTimeout(function () {
// Check content of the url object and get information about the URL.
Adjust.appWillOpenUrl(url);
}, 300);
};// ...
var app = {
initialize: function() {
this.bindEvents();
},
bindEvents: function() {
document.addEventListener('deviceready', this.onDeviceReady, false);
},
onDeviceReady: function() {
if (device.platform == "iOS") {
universalLinks.subscribe('adjustDeepLinking', app.didLaunchAppFromLink);
}
},
didLaunchAppFromLink: function(eventData) {
// Check content of the eventData.url object and get information about the URL.
Adjust.appWillOpenUrl(eventData.url);
}
}
// ...In order to enable data residency feature, make sure to call setUrlStrategy method of the AdjustConfig instance with one of the following constants:
adjustConfig.setUrlStrategy(AdjustConfig.DataResidencyEU); // for EU data residency region
adjustConfig.setUrlStrategy(AdjustConfig.DataResidencyTR); // for Turkey data residency region
adjustConfig.setUrlStrategy(AdjustConfig.DataResidencyUS); // for US data residency regionYou can enable native Adjust OAID plugin directly from Adjust Cordova SDK. In order to do that, first make sure to read native OAID plugin docs. Since Adjust Cordova SDK is already adding the native Adjust SDK under the hood, only dependency you need to add to your app from OAID plugin docs is the OAID plugin dependency. After that has been done, you have an option to enable usage of native Adjust OAID plugin by calling setOaidReadingEnabled method of AdjustConfig:
adjustConfig.setOaidReadingEnabled(true);By default Adjust SDK doesn't mark app as COPPA compliant. In order to mark your app as COPPA compliant, make sure to call setCoppaCompliantEnabled method of AdjustConfig instance with boolean parameter true:
adjustConfig.setCoppaCompliantEnabled(true);Note: By enabling this feature, third-party sharing will be automatically disabled for the users. If later during the app lifetime you decide not to mark app as COPPA compliant anymore, third-party sharing will not be automatically re-enabled. Instead, next to not marking your app as COPPA compliant anymore, you will need to explicitly re-enable third-party sharing in case you want to do that.
By default Adjust SDK doesn't mark Android app as Play Store Kids App. In order to mark your app as the app which is targetting kids in Play Store, make sure to call setPlayStoreKidsAppEnabled method of AdjustConfig instance with boolean parameter true:
adjustConfig.setPlayStoreKidsAppEnabled(true);The Adjust SDK is licensed under the MIT License.
