Mobile Core API Usage

This document lists the APIs provided by MobileCore, along with sample code snippets on how to properly use the APIs.

For more in-depth information about the Mobile Core, visit the official SDK documentation on Mobile Core.

Importing Mobile Core

Java

import com.adobe.marketing.mobile.MobileCore;

Kotlin

import com.adobe.marketing.mobile.MobileCore

Getting MobileCore version

Java

final String coreVersion = MobileCore.extensionVersion();

Kotlin

val coreVersion: String = MobileCore.extensionVersion()

Setting the log level

The SDK log verbosity can be adjusted to one of the following modes: ERROR, WARNING, DEBUG, VERBOSE.

Java

MobileCore.setLogLevel(LoggingMode.VERBOSE);

Kotlin

MobileCore.setLogLevel(LoggingMode.VERBOSE)

Retrieving the current log level

Java

final LoggingMode loggingMode = MobileCore.getLogLevel();

Kotlin

val loggingMode: LoggingMode = MobileCore.getLogLevel()

Setting the wrapper type

The wrapper type can be set to one of the follwing types: NONE, REACT_NATIVE, FLUTTER, CORDOVA, UNITY, XAMARIN.

Java

MobileCore.setWrapperType(WrapperType.REACT_NATIVE);

Kotlin

MobileCore.setWrapperType(WrapperType.REACT_NATIVE)

Initializing MobileCore with Android Application instance

Use the setApplication api to pass the Android Application instance to SDK. This allows the SDK to monitor the lifecycle of your Android application.

Java

public class YourApp extends Application {

   @Override
   public void onCreate() {
      super.onCreate();

      MobileCore.setApplication(this);
   }
}

Kotlin

class YourApp : Application() {
    override fun onCreate() {
        super.onCreate()

        MobileCore.setApplication(this)
    }
}

Retrieving the registered Application

You can use the getApplication() api to get the Android Application instance that was previously set via MobileCore.setApplication()

Java

final Application app = MobileCore.getApplication();

Kotlin

val app = MobileCore.getApplication()

Registering extensions and starting the SDK

Java

import com.adobe.marketing.mobile.Identity
import com.adobe.marketing.mobile.Signal
...

MobileCore.registerExtensions(
    Arrays.asList(Identity.EXTENSION, Signal.EXTENSION, ...), new AdobeCallback<Object>() {
    // handle callback
});

Kotlin

import com.adobe.marketing.mobile.Identity
import com.adobe.marketing.mobile.Signal
...

MobileCore.registerExtensions(Arrays.asList(Identity.EXTENSION, Signal.EXTENSION, ...)){
    // handle callback
}

Registering an EventListener

Java

MobileCore.registerEventListener(EventType.ANALYTICS, EventSource.REQUEST_CONTENT, new AdobeCallback<Event>() {
    @Override
    public void call(Event value) {
        // handle callback
    }
});

Kotlin

MobileCore.registerEventListener(EventType.ANALYTICS, EventSource.REQUEST_CONTENT) { event ->
    // handle callback
}

Configuring the SDK with an app id

MobileCore.configureWithAppId api can be used to download and apply the configuration for the provided app Id.

Java

MobileCore.configureWithAppId("YOUR_APP_ID");

Kotlin

MobileCore.configureWithAppId("YOUR_APP_ID")

Configuring the SDK with a bundled file asset

You can bundle a JSON configuration file in the app's assets folder to replace or complement the configuration that was downloaded by using the Configure with App ID per environment approach.

Java

MobileCore.configureWithFileInAssets("SampleBundledJSONConfigFile.json");

Kotlin

MobileCore.configureWithFileInAssets("SampleBundledJSONConfigFile.json")

Configuring the SDK with a file path

Java

MobileCore.configureWithFileInPath("absolute/path/to/YourJSONConfigfile.json");

Kotlin

MobileCore.configureWithFileInPath("absolute/path/to/YourJSONConfigfile.json")

Updating the configuration programmatically

You can update the configuration programmatically by passing configuration keys and values to override the existing configuration via MobileCore.updateConfiguration() api Keys that are not found on the current configuration are added when this method is followed. Null values are allowed and replace existing configuration values.

Java

Map<String, Object> data = new HashMap<>();
data.put("global.privacy", "optedout");

MobileCore.updateConfiguration(data);

Kotlin

val data: Map<String, Any?> = mapOf(
    "global.privacy" to "optedout",
    "sampleKey" to "sampleValue"
)

MobileCore.updateConfiguration(data)

Clearing programmatically updated configuration

You can clear programmatic configuration changes made using MobileCore.updteConfiguration() api via MobileCore.clearUpdatedConfiguration() api.

Java

MobileCore.clearUpdatedConfiguration();

Kotlin

MobileCore.clearUpdatedConfiguration()

Dispatch an Event

Java

final Map<String, Object> eventData = new HashMap<>();
eventData.put("sampleKey", "sampleValue");

final Event sampleEvent = new Event.Builder("SampleEventName", "SampleEventType", "SampleEventSource")
                          .setEventData(eventData)
                          .build();

MobileCore.dispatchEvent(sampleEvent);

Kotlin

val eventData: Map<String, Any?> = mapOf("sampleKey" to "sampleValue")

val sampleEvent = Event.Builder("Sample Event Name", "Sample EventType", "Sample Event Source")
                  .setEventData(eventData)
                  .build()

MobileCore.dispatchEvent(sampleEvent)

Dispatch an Event with response callback

Java

final Map<String, Object> eventData = new HashMap<>();
eventData.put("sampleKey", "sampleValue");

final Event sampleEvent = new Event.Builder("SampleEventName", "SampleEventType", "SampleEventSource")
                          .setEventData(eventData)
                          .build();

MobileCore.dispatchEventWithResponseCallback(sampleEvent, 5000L, new AdobeCallbackWithError<Event>() {
    // implement callback
});

Kotlin
