Project Setup

Min SDK 16

Add Permissions

Please add the following permissions in your AndroidManifest.xml file

123456
<manifest ...>
  ...
  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
  ...
</manifest>

Initialization

Please add the following code under the onCreate method of the Application class file registered in the AndroidManifest.xml file.

1234567
@Override
public void onCreate() {
    super.onCreate();
    AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
        .build();
    Airbridge.init(this, config);
}

Attention
For proper operation, please make sure that the init method is called at the time of onCreate of the Application class.

You can find YOUR_APP_NAME and YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN in the "Airbridge Dashboard → Settings → Tokens" tab.

Testing the SDK

Once the basic installation and configuration of the Airbridge SDK is complete, you can test whether it has been correctly setup through the following methods.

Check in the Airbridge Dashboard

Install and open the app on the device that you want to test
Go to "Airbridge dashboard → Raw Data → App Real-time Logs"
Enter Google Advertising ID of the device in the search box

Please re-check the guide above if you do not see any install event with your Google Advertising ID

You can find the Google Advertising ID of a device at Settings → Google → Ads → Your advertising ID.

Check in LogCat

Use the following method if you want to use LogCat to see a more detailed log of the app.

Attention
Since this method may expose user information, please make sure the method is executed only for the Build.DEBUG case.

12345
// Default log level = Log.INFO
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setLogLevel(Log.DEBUG)
    .build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

Deep Link Setup

Dashboard Setup

The following information must be registered on the [Tracking Link]>[Deep Link] page in your Airbridge dashboard.

URI Scheme
Package name
sha256_cert_fingerprints

Enter URI Scheme

Enter the Android URI scheme, including ://, into the URI scheme field. Only lowercase letters, numbers, -, and + are supported.

Attention
The URI scheme must be entered differently for the production app, which is the app that has already been released on app stores or is planning to be released, and the test app.
If the same URI scheme is entered for the production app and test app, the deep link may open an unintended app page.

Enter package name

The package name of the production app already released on app stores will be automatically filled.

The package names of the production app that has not been released on app stores yet and the test app must be entered manually in the Android package name field.

Register Fingerprint

Follow the below steps to obtain the sha256_cert_fingerprint.

Prepare the keystorefile that you used to register your app with Google Play Store.
Execute the following command in Linux.

Shell

1
keytool -list -v -keystore my-release-key.keystore

3. Copy the SHA256value under the Certificate Fingerprints section and paste it under Android sha256_cert_fingerprintsas shown in the picture above.

Shell

1234
Certificate fingerprints:
    MD5:  4C:65:04:52:F0:3F:F8:65:08:D3:71:86:FC:EF:C3:49
    SHA1: C8:BF:B7:B8:94:EA:5D:9D:38:59:FE:99:63:ED:47:B2:D9:5A:4E:CC
    SHA256: B5:EF:4D:F9:DC:95:E6:9B:F3:9A:5E:E9:D6:E0:D8:F6:7B:AB:79:C8:78:67:34:D9:A7:01:AB:6A:86:01:0E:99

Attention
Multiple Android sha256_cert_fingerprints can be entered by separating them with commas.

Project Setup

Intent Filter Setup

Follow these steps to setup the intent-filter

Open AndroidManifest.xml
Add the following intent-filterto the activitythat will process the deep link.

123456789101112131415161718192021222324252627282930
<activity ...>
    ...
    <intent-filter android:autoVerify="true">
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

        <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />

        <data android:scheme="http" android:host="YOUR_APP_NAME.abr.ge" />
        <data android:scheme="https" android:host="YOUR_APP_NAME.abr.ge" />
    </intent-filter>
    <intent-filter android:autoVerify="true">
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

        <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />

        <data android:scheme="http" android:host="YOUR_APP_NAME.airbridge.io" />
        <data android:scheme="https" android:host="YOUR_APP_NAME.airbridge.io" />
    </intent-filter>
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

        <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />

        <data android:scheme="YOUR_APP_URI_SCHEME" />
    </intent-filter>
    ...
</activity>

YOUR_APP_NAME.deeplink.page: Airbridge App Links Version 2
YOUR_APP_NAME.airbridge.io: Airbridge App Links Version 1
YOUR_APP_URI_SCHEME: URI Scheme of the deep link (e.g. abc://)

Custom Domain Setup

The deeplink.page or abr.ge domains are available when creating a tracking link at the Airbridge dashboard. Customized URLs such as go.my_company.com/abcd can also be used as tracking links to improve the branding and CTR (Click Through Rate).

Please follow this guide to setup custom domains.
Create a /res/values/airbridge.xml file and edit it as below

123456
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
    <string-array name="co_ab180_airbridge_custom_domains">
        <item>YOUR_CUSTOM_DOMAIN</item>
    </string-array>
</resources>

3. Add the following intent-filterto the activitythat will process the deep link.

12345678910111213
<activity ...>
    ...
    <intent-filter android:autoVerify="true">
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

        <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />

        <data android:scheme="http" android:host="YOUR_CUSTOM_DOMAIN" />
        <data android:scheme="https" android:host="YOUR_CUSTOM_DOMAIN" />
    </intent-filter>
    ...
</activity>

Attention
YOUR_CUSTOM_DOMAIN should match the information in the Airbridge dashboard

Deep Link Callback Setup

The edit below is needed to process the deep link as defined by the intent-filter above.

123456789101112131415161718192021222324252627
@Override
protected void onResume() {
    super.onResume();
    Airbridge.getDeeplink(getIntent(), new AirbridgeCallback<Uri>() {
        @Override
        public void onSuccess(Uri uri) {
            // Process deeplink data
        }

        @Override
        public void onFailure(Throwable throwable) {
            // Error
        }

        @Override
        public void onComplete() {
            // After process deeplink data
        }
    });
}

// The code below is required for proper deeplink processing
@Override
protected void onNewIntent(Intent intent) {
    super.onNewIntent(intent);
    setIntent(intent);
}

12345678910111213141516171819202122
override fun onResume() {
    super.onResume()
    Airbridge.getDeeplink(intent, object : AirbridgeCallback<Uri> {
        override fun onSuccess(uri: Uri) {
            // Process deeplink data
        }

        override fun onFailure(throwable: Throwable) {
            // Error
        }

        override fun onComplete() {
            // After process deeplink data
        }
    })
}

// The code below is required for proper deeplink processing
override fun onNewIntent(intent: Intent?) {
    super.onNewIntent(intent)
    setIntent(intent)
}

Deferred Deep Link Callback Setup

In the general case of a deferred deep link in Airbridge SDK, the intent-filter automatically calls the corresponding activity and can be processed in the same way as a deep link callback.

When the corresponding activity is called through an Airbridge deferred deep link, the deferred=true query parameter is also passed on.

You can use the following method if you do not want the deferred deep link to automatically call an activity, or want to process a specific job with the information obtained through the deferred deep link.

1234567891011
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setOnDeferredDeeplinkReceiveListener(new OnDeferredDeeplinkReceiveListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean shouldLaunchReceivedDeferredDeeplink(Uri uri) {
            // If you want to open the target activity, please return true otherwise false
            // Default returning value = true
            return true;
        }
    })
    .build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

12345678910
val config = AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setOnDeferredDeeplinkReceiveListener(object : OnDeferredDeeplinkReceiveListener {
        override fun shouldLaunchReceivedDeferredDeeplink(uri: Uri): Boolean {
            // If you want to open the target activity, please return true otherwise false
            // Default returning value = true
            return true
        }
    })
    .build()
Airbridge.init(this, config)

Test Deep Link

Click on your URI scheme to test if your deep link has been properly set up in the Airbridge SDK.

YOUR_APP_URI_SCHEME://

The results will show on the "Airbridge dashboard → Raw Data → App Real-time Log" tab if everything is working.

User Setup

User Identifier Setup

To measure the fragmented contributions of users between web and app, Airbridge collects the following user identifier information.

User Email: Email address
User Phone: Phone number
User ID: Unique User ID (The ID value that specifies the user must be the same in both web and mobile)
User Alias: Identifiers that can represent users (e.g. loyalty program ID, affiliate integrated ID, etc)

The user's email and phone numbers are hashed (SHA256) by default and then sent to servers.

You can set the user identifier as below for the SDK.

1234567891011
// Automatically hashed on client side using SHA256
// Can turn off hashing feature with special flag
Airbridge.getCurrentUser().setEmail("testID@ab180.co");
Airbridge.getCurrentUser().setPhone("821012341234");

// Does not hash 
Airbridge.getCurrentUser().setId("testID");
Airbridge.getCurrentUser().setAlias("key", "value");

// Clear user data
Airbridge.expireUser()

1234567891011
// Automatically hashed on client side using SHA256
// Can turn off hashing feature with special flag
Airbridge.getCurrentUser().email = "testID@ab180.co"
Airbridge.getCurrentUser().phone = "821012341234"

// Does not hash 
Airbridge.getCurrentUser().id = "testID"
Airbridge.getCurrentUser().setAlias("key", "value")

// Clear user data
Airbridge.expireUser()

Name	Description	Limitations
`Email`	User email	Hashed by default (SHA256, can be disabled)
`Phone`	User phone number	Hashed by default (SHA256, can be disabled)
`Id`	User ID	-
`Alias`	User alias	- Maximum 10 aliases - `"key"`type is String, maximum 128 characters - `"key"`must satisfy `^[a-z_][a-z0-9_]*$`regex -`"value"`type is String, maximum 1024 characters

Once the user identifier has been setup, all events will be forwarded with the corresponding identity information.

User Attributes Setup

Additional user attributes can be used for more accurate Multi-Touch Attribution (MTA) analyses, additional internal data analysis, and linking third-party solutions.

1
Airbridge.getCurrentUser().setAttribute("key", "value");

Name	Description	Limitations
`setAttribute`	User attribute	- Maximum 100 attributes - "key" type is string, maximum 128 characters - "key" must satisfy `^[a-z_][a-z0-9_]*$`regex - "value" type is primitive or string - Maximum 1024 characters when "value" is string

Test User Information Setup

Check your user information settings at "Airbridge Dashboard → Raw Data → App Real-time Log".

Device Setup

Setup Device Alias

Setup a device alias through the Airbridge SDK. The alias will be sustained even after the app closes, unless otherwise deleted.

123
Airbridge.setDeviceAlias("ADD_YOUR_KEY", "AND_YOUR_VALUE");
Airbridge.removeDeviceAlias("DELETE_THIS_KEY");
Airbridge.clearDeviceAlias();

Method	Description
`setDeviceAlias(key: String, value: String)`	Add the key value pair to the device identifier.
`removeDeviceAlias(key: String)`	Delete the corresponding device alias.
`clearDeviceAlias()`	Delete all device aliases.

Event Setup

All events called by the Airbridge SDK can be sent with the following fields.

Name	Type	Description
`EventCategory`	String	Name of the event Required
`event_action`	String	Event attribute 1
`event_label`	String	Event attribute 2
`eventValue`	Number	Event attribute value
`eventAttributes`	Map<String, Object>	Custom attributes
`semanticAttributes`	Semantic attributes class	Semantic attributes

Below is an example of how you can send a standard event using the Airbridge SDK.

12345
Number eventValue = 10;
Map<String, Object> eventAttributes = new HashMap<String, Object>();
SemanticAttributes semanticAttributes = new SemanticAttributes();
semanticAttributes.put(SemanticAttributes.KEY_CURRENCY, "USD");
Airbridge.trackEvent(StandardEventCategory.HOME_VIEW, "event_action", "event_label", eventValue, eventAttributes, semanticAttributes);

12345
val eventValue = 10
val eventAttributes = mutableMapOf<String, String>()
val semanticAttributes = mutableMapOf<String, String>()
semanticAttributes[SemanticAttributes.KEY_CURRENCY] = "USD"
Airbridge.trackEvent(StandardEventCategory.HOME_VIEW, "event_action", "event_label", eventValue, eventAttributes, semanticAttributes)

If your application has specific needs that are not covered by a standard event category, you can log custom events as below.

12345
Number eventValue = 10;
Map<String, String> eventAttributes = new HashMap<String, String>();
Map<String, String> semanticAttributes = new HashMap<String, String>();
semanticAttributes.put(SemanticAttributes.KEY_CURRENCY, "USD");
Airbridge.trackEvent("event_category", "event_action", "event_label", eventValue, eventAttributes, semanticAttributes);

12345
val eventValue = 10
val eventAttributes = mutableMapOf<String, String>()
val semanticAttributes = mutableMapOf<String, String>()
semanticAttributes[SemanticAttributes.KEY_CURRENCY] = "USD"
Airbridge.trackEvent("event_category", "event_action", "event_label", eventValue, eventAttributes, semanticAttributes)

Please refer to guide for more details on semantic attributes supported by the Airbridge SDK.

Alternatively, you can pre-define classes and inherit them depending on the event your app needs.

12345678
class MyAppEvent extends Event {
    public MyAppEvent() {
        super("my_custom_category");
    }
}
...
Airbridge.trackEvent(new MyAppEvent());
...

Sending Standard Events

123456

Airbridge.getCurrentUser().setAttributes("attr1", 1234);
Airbridge.trackEvent(StandardEventCategory.SIGN_UP);

123456
Airbridge.getCurrentUser().email = "testID@ab180.co"
Airbridge.getCurrentUser().phone = "821012341234"
Airbridge.getCurrentUser().id = "testID"
Airbridge.getCurrentUser().setAlias("alias1", "value")

Restricted SDK does not collect device IDs, including Ad ID. The restricted SDK will be available starting from v2.22.2.

Install using Gradle

Add the following line within the dependencies block in the app/build.gradle file instead of the existing library.

12345
dependencies {
    ...
    implementation "io.airbridge:sdk-android-restricted:2.+"
    ...
}

Install without Gradle

SDK Signature Setup

Protection against SDK spoofing is available once you set up the app's SDK signature. Settings can be changed by calling setSDKSignatureSecret before the SDK initialization code.

1234
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
        .setSDKSignatureSecret("YOUR_SDK_SIGNATURE_SECRET_ID", "YOUR_SDK_SIGNATURE_SECRET")
        .build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

1234
val config = AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setSDKSignatureSecret("YOUR_SDK_SIGNATURE_SECRET_ID", "YOUR_SDK_SIGNATURE_SECRET")
    .build()
Airbridge.init(this, config)

Please ask your CSM for the "SDK Signature Secret ID" and "SDK Signature Secret" values.

User Identifier Hash Setup

If you want to send user identity information without hashing it for internal data analysis, you can disable hashing by turning off the following option.

Attention
Other security measures must be taken internally when sensitive personal information such as "User Email" and "User Phone" is being handled.

12345
// Default User Info Hash Enabled = true
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setUserInfoHashEnabled(false)
    .build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

Session Timeout Settings

Airbridge SDK does not resend an app open event if the user relaunches the app within the set session time. It will only send an app open event when the user opens the app after the set session time.

12345
// Default Session Timeout = 5 minutes
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setSessionTimeoutSeconds(300)
    .build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

Privacy Protection

Use this function if privacy laws apply, and data should only be collected and transferred with consent. (e.g GDPR, CCPA)

123456789101112
// Default Auto Start Tracking Enabled = true
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setAutoStartTrackingEnabled(false)
    .build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

...

// Set a variable like below
if (properties.isGDPRAccepted) {
    Airbridge.startTracking();
}

123456789101112
// Default Auto Start Tracking Enabled = true
val config = AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setAutoStartTrackingEnabled(false)
    .build()
Airbridge.init(this, config)

...

// Set a variable like below
if (properties.isGDPRAccepted) {
    Airbridge.startTracking()
}

Track Airbridge Links Only

It may be difficult to see the re-engagement performance through Airbridge if there are too many deep link actions within the advertiser's app. The following option can be used to receive deep link events for Airbridge deep links only.

This option will measure deep links only if the following requirements are met.

The app is opened through a airbridge.iolink
The app is opened through a deeplink.pagelink
The app is opened through a Custom Domain Setup that is registered on the Airbridge dashboard
The app is opened through a link that contains airbridge_referrerinformation in the query

12345
// Default Airbridge Link Only = false
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setTrackAirbridgeLinkOnly(true)
    .build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

Deferred App Link Settings for Facebook

The settings below will allow Airbridge SDK to utilize Facebook's deferred app link information.

Reference - https://developers.facebook.com/docs/app-events/getting-started-app-events-android Reference - https://developers.facebook.com/docs/app-ads/deep-linking

Add the following repository to the project/build.gradle file.

123456789
allprojects {
    ...
    repositories {
        ...
        mavenCentral()
        ...
    }
    ...
}

Add the following under the dependencies block of the app/build.gradle file.

12345
dependencies {
    ...
    implementation 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:latest.release'
    ...
}

Add the following string in the app/res/values/string.xml file.

12345
...
<string name="facebook_app_id">FACEBOOK_APP_ID</string>
<string name="facebook_client_token">FACEBOOK_CLIENT_TOKEN</string>
...

Add the following meta-data under the application element in the AndroidManifest.xml file.

12345678
...
<application android:label="@string/app_name" ...> 
    ...
    <meta-data android:name="com.facebook.sdk.ApplicationId" android:value="@string/facebook_app_id"/>
    <meta-data android:name="com.facebook.sdk.ClientToken" android:value="@string/facebook_client_token"/>
    ...
</application>
...

Set the below option to true.

12345
// Default Facebook Deferred App Link Enabled = false
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setFacebookDeferredAppLinkEnabled(true)
    .build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

12345
// Default Facebook Deferred App Link Enabled = false
val config = AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setFacebookDeferredAppLinkEnabled(true)
    .build()
Airbridge.init(this, config)

App Uninstallation Tracking

App uninstallation tracking through Firebase Messaging is supported by Airbridge Android SDK v2.6.0 and above.

Please refer to this page for more information on app uninstallation tracking.

User Location Information Collection

Airbridge SDK can collect user location information through the following method.

Attention
Location information must be collected for legal purposes through legal methods.

1234
// Choose one
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
...

12345
// Default Location Collection Enabled = false
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setLocationCollectionEnabled(true)
    .build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

12345
// Default Location Collection Enabled = false
val config = AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setLocationCollectionEnabled(true)
    .build()
Airbridge.init(this, config)

Attention
Airbridge SDK collects LastKnownLocation information. If the GPS information is not obtained, the value may not exist even if the corresponding permissions and settings are complete.

Inflow Measurement Per App Market

If advertisers need to analyze their application inflow performance for each market separately(e.g. Google Play Store, One Store, Huawei Store), you can set identifiers for each application and it will be reflected on the Airbridge dashboard.

Setup via `AndroidManifest.xml`

Insert the app market's name(e.g. playStore, oneStore, huaweiStore) at andriod:value.

1234567
...
<application android:label="@string/app_name" ...> 
    ...
    <meta-data android:name="co.ab180.airbridge.app_market_identifier" android:value="playStore"/>
    ...
</application>
...

Setup via `AirbridgeConfig`

Insert the app market's name(e.g. playStore, oneStore, huaweiStore) at setAppMarketIdentifier.

1234
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setAppMarketIdentifier("playStore")
    .build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

The data can be utilized at the Airbridge dashboard through "Reports → Actuals → GroupBy → Event Property → App Market Identifier" and "Raw Data → App Raw Data → Export Raw Data → Select Property → App Market Identifier".

Installations per App Market

Error Log Collection

Error logs of the SDK are sent to the Airbridge server to improve the quality of the Airbridge SDK. These error logs only include the SDK's internal operations. You can disable this by turning off the following option.

12345
// Default Error Log Collection Enabled = true
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setErrorLogCollectionEnabled(false)
    .build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

12345
// Default Error Log Collection Enabled = true
val config = AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setErrorLogCollectionEnabled(false)
    .build()
Airbridge.init(this, config)

Event Buffer Limit

When an event transmission failure occurs, the Airbridge SDK will store the event and retry at a later time. The following settings will allow you to limit the storage used for such events.

1234567
int count = 10;
long bytes = 1000000L;
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setEventMaximumBufferCount(count)
    .setEventMaximumBufferSize(bytes)
    .build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

1234567
val count = 1_000
val bytes = 1_000_000L
val config = AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setEventMaximumBufferCount(count)
    .setEventMaximumBufferSize(bytes)
    .build()
Airbridge.init(this, config)

Event buffer size is slightly smaller than the actual size of the data due to metadata management.

Meta install referrer Collection Setup

Meta install referrer (MIR) Colection Setup supported by Airbridge Android SDK in version 2.22.3 or higher. To collect data, set as below.

After adding the settings, you must enter the decryption key to see decrypted MIR. Refer to this article to learn about MIR.

1234
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setMetaInstallReferrer("YOUR_FACEBOOK_APP_ID")
    .build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

DMA Compliance Setup

To comply with the Digital Markets Act (DMA), user consent must be shared with Airbridge. For detailed information about the DMA and the guidelines for advertisers, refer to this article.

Note that consent from all end users in the European Economic Area (EEA) should always be shared with Airbridge.

1. Confirm whether the end user launched the app in the EEA. If the end user did launch the app in the EEA (eea=1) and DMA applies, confirm whether the consent values are already stored for the session. If there are consent values stored, continue to Step 3.

If the end user launched the app from outside the EEA, it is not necessary to collect user consent.

Note
Airbridge cannot provide guidance on storing the consent values or the development and implementation of privacy prompts. For assistance, consult legal professionals.

2. If there are no consent values stored, proceed to obtain user consent, such as with a privacy prompt. You must collect the adPersonalization and adUserData values in this step.

Attention
Advertisers must collect consent values from all existing and new end users in the EEA at least once starting March 6, 2024.

The table below illustrates the consent values that must be shared with Airbridge. The eea value is neither a direct response from the user nor automatically filled in by Airbridge. Advertisers should determine the eea value based on whether the user is in the EEA and the DMA applies.

`#{"width":"80px"}` Airbridge Field	`#{"width":"80px"}` Google Field	`#{"width":"160px"}` Description
`eea` <string>	`eea`	Indicates whether the user is in the EEA and the DMA applies. The value is neither a direct response from the user nor automatically filled in by Airbridge. Determine the appropriate value based on whether the user is in the EEA and the DMA applies. Values other than `0` and `1` will not be processed. If `0`, it is advised not to share the other field values with Airbridge. - `0`: The user is in the EEA, and DMA does not apply - `1`: The user is in the EEA, and DMA does apply
`adPersonalization` <string>	`ad_personalization`	Indicates whether the user gave Google consent to use their data for ad personalization. Values other than `0` and `1` will not be processed. - `0`: The user did not give consent - `1`: The user gave consent
`adUserData` <string>	`ad_user_data`	Indicates whether the user gave consent to send their data to Google for ad-related purposes. Values other than `0` and `1` will not be processed. - `0`: The user did not give consent - `1`: The user gave consent

}

Attribution Result Callback Setup

Get attribution result data using the Airbridge SDK.

123456789
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
	.setOnAttributionResultReceiveListener(new OnAttributionResultReceiveListener() {
		@Override
		public void onAttributionResultReceived(@NonNull Map<String, String> result) {
			// Process attribution data
		}
	})
	.build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

12345678
val config = AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
	.setOnAttributionResultReceiveListener(object : OnAttributionResultReceiveListener {
		override fun onAttributionResultReceived(result: Map<String, String>) {
			// Process attribution data
		}
	})
	.build()
Airbridge.init(this, config)

Below is a list of data fields that will be retrieved through the callback.

Field	Description
attributedChannel	Channel (String)
attributedCampaign	Campaign (String)
attributedAdGroup	Ad Group (String)
attributedAdCreative	Ad Creative (String)
attributedContent	Content (String)
attributedTerm	Keyword (String)
attributedSubPublisher	Sub Publisher (String)
attributedSubSubPublisher1	Sub-sub Publisher 1 (String)
attributedSubSubPublisher2	Sub-sub Publisher 2 (String)
attributedSubSubPublisher3	Sub-sub Publisher 3 (String)

If the event is unattributed, below is an example of the response you'll get.

123
{
    "attributedChannel": "unattributed"
}

Guidelines for using attribution result data
Attribution data exists
Attribution data is forwarded within 40 seconds of SDK initialization.
If the app was closed and attribution data wasn't received, attribution data is forwarded within 40 seconds when the app is opened again.
On very rare occasions, attribution data could take up to 5 minutes to be received.
Attribution data does not exist
Attribution data will be received 3 hours after SDK initialization.
It is not recommended to utilize these attribution values for real-time processing

Event Transmission Interval

It is possible to setup event transmission intervals using the below code.

12345
// Default Event Transmit Interval = 0 millisecond
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setEventTransmitInterval(3000)
    .build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

12345
// Default Event Transmit Interval = 0 millisecond
val config = AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setEventTransmitInterval(3000)
    .build()
Airbridge.init(this, config)

Attention
An IllegalArgumentExcpeionruntime error will occur if setEventTransmitIntervalis set to a negative number.

Lifecycle Event Collection Within Session

The following code allows you to collect lifecycle events (ORGANIC_REOPEN, FOREGROUND) within the session timeframe.

1234
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setTrackInSessionLifeCycleEventEnabled(true)
    .build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

Delete Unprocessed Events

Empty the device's internal DB of unprocessed events that were not sent to Airbridge.

1234
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setResetEventBufferEnabled(true)
    .build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

Use Tracking Links Within Apps

Redirect users to other pages without going through a browser by using the below feature.

12
Airbridge.click("https://abr.ge/~~~")
Airbridge.impression("https://abr.ge/~~~")

Attention
Custom domain tracking links with custom short IDs can't be used.
http://deeplink.ab180.co/custom: Invalid
http://deeplink.ab180.co/a3b1c2: Valid
https://abr.ge/a3b1c2: Valid

Deactivate Airbridge

All Airbridge functions can be turned off.

1234
AirbridgeConfig config = new AirbridgeConfig.Builder("YOUR_APP_NAME", "YOUR_APP_SDK_TOKEN")
    .setSdkEnabled(false)
    .build();
Airbridge.init(this, config);

Attention
If setResetEventBufferEnabled is set to true and setSdkEnabled is set to false, then setSdkEnabled is prioritized and setResetEventBufferEnabled isn't processed.

Hybrid App Setup

While basic events (e.g. "install", "open", "deep link open") can be automatically tracked by only installing the Android SDK in your hybrid app, in-app events (e.g. sign-up, purchase, etc.) cannot be tracked as they are actually in-browser events that occur within a website of the WebView environment. Airbridge provides a simpler way to track in-app events by enabling the Android SDK to automatically pull all events from the web SDK that is installed on the website of the WebView environment. This replaces the hassle of having to create bridge functions between native and WebView environments.

Attention
Please note that in order to utilize this feature, both SDKs must be installed; Android SDK on the mobile native environment and web SDK on the website of the WebView environment.

Sending Events in WebView Environments

Reference - Building Web Apps in WebView

Reference - Understanding Android WebView Javascript Interface

Please call the Airbridge::setJavascriptInterface method in the target WebView as below.

123456789101112131415161718192021
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
    
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        initWebView();
    }
    
    void initWebView() {
        webView = findViewById(R.id.webView);
        webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
        webView.getSettings().setDomStorageEnabled(true);

        Airbridge.setJavascriptInterface(webView, "YOUR_WEB_SDK_TOKEN");    
    
        webView.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient());
        webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
        webView.loadUrl("http://dev.blog.airbridge.io/websdk-web-app/");
    }
}

Auto Backup

Reference - https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/data/autobackup

Airbridge SDK defines airbridge_auto_backup_rules.xml in AndroidManifest.xml to prevent automatic replication of internal data. If you need Auto Backup for your Android app, you have to merge with airbridge_auto_backup_rules.xml file yourself

When errors like Manifest merger failed : Attribute application@fullBackupContent value=(true) occur, please add the following rules in your backup_rules.xml file and add tools:replace="android:fullBackupContent" inside application element

Airbridge SDK defines airbridge_auto_backup_rules.xml in AndroidManifest.xml to prevent automatic replication of internal data. You may have to configure your auto backup rules if your app uses auto backup, which in turn might cause conflicts such as Manifest merger failed : Attribute application@fullBackupContent value=(true).

If such errors occur, you will need to set tools:replace="android:fullBackupContent" under the application element and merge the following rules to your backup_rules.xml file.

Below are the auto backup rules defined in the Airbridge SDK.
