SDK Integration:

Android Studio Integration

1. Download the latest Android SDK from here.
2. Add the tenjin.jar into your Android Studio project by selecting New > Module.
3. In the New Module dialog, select the Import .JAR or .AAR Package option and click on Next.
4. Select the tenjin.jar or tenjin.aar file click on Finish.
5. If you haven’t already installed the Google Play Services, add it to our build.gradle file. Starting with Tenjin Android SDK v1.8.3, you will need to add Google's Install Referrer Library.

dependencies {
  compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:16.0.6'
  compile 'com.android.installreferrer:installreferrer:1.0'
}

1. In your app module's build.gradle file, make sure to add this into the dependencies block:

   dependencies {
   compile project(":tenjin")
   }
   

   Eclipse Integration

2. Download the latest Android SDK from here.
3. Create a folder libs in your project's root folder.
4. Copy the tenjin.jar file to the libs folder.
5. Right click on tenjin.jar and then select Build Path -> Add to Build Path
6. This should create a folder called Referenced Libraries in your project
7. Install Google's Android Support Repository, Android Support Library, Google Play Services and Google Repository SDKs from the SDK Manager. Google outlines how to best configure this if you haven't already.

Code Integration:

1. Get your API_KEY from your Tenjin Organization tab.
2. In your main Activity include the Tenjin SDK with import com.tenjin.android.TenjinSDK;

3a. For each onResume method of every Activity add the following line of code:

TenjinSDK instance = TenjinSDK.getInstance(this, "<API_KEY>");
instance.connect();

Or similarly here's an example of what the Activity integration(s) should look like:

import com.tenjin.android.TenjinSDK;
import com.tenjin.android.Callback;

public class TenjinDemo extends ActionBarActivity {

    @Override
    public void onResume() {
        //standard code
        super.onResume()

        //Integrate TenjinSDK connect call
        String apiKey = "<API_KEY>";
        TenjinSDK instance = TenjinSDK.getInstance(this, apiKey);
        instance.connect();

        //Your other code...
        //...

    }
}

3b. Alternate initialization to handle deep links from other services. (DO NOT USE 3a and 3b. You need to use only one.) If you use other services to produce deferred deep links, you can pass Tenjin those deep links to handle the attribution logic with your Tenjin enabled deep links.

import com.facebook.applinks.AppLinkData;

import com.tenjin.android.TenjinSDK;

public class TenjinDemo extends ActionBarActivity {

    @Override
    public void onResume() {
        //standard code
        super.onResume()

        //Integrate TenjinSDK connect call
        String apiKey = "<API_KEY>";
        TenjinSDK instance = TenjinSDK.getInstance(this, apiKey);

        String appLinkUri = "your_deeplink";
        if (appLinkUri){
          instance.connect(appLinkUri);
        } else {
          instance.connect();
        }

        //Your other code...
        //...

    }
}

You can verify if the integration is working through our Live Test Device Data Tool. Add your advertising_id or IDFA/GAID to the list of test devices. You can find this under Support -> Test Devices. Go to the SDK Live page and send a test events from your app. You should see a live event come in:

Tenjin and GDPR:

As part of GDPR compliance, with Tenjin's SDK you can opt-in, opt-out devices/users, or select which specific device-related params to opt-in or opt-out. OptOut() will not send any API requests to Tenjin and we will not process any events.

To opt-in/opt-out:

import com.tenjin.android.TenjinSDK;

public class TenjinDemo extends ActionBarActivity {

    @Override
    public void onResume() {
        //standard code
        super.onResume()

        //Integrate TenjinSDK connect call
        String apiKey = "<API_KEY>";
        TenjinSDK instance = TenjinSDK.getInstance(this, apiKey);

        boolean userOptIn = checkOptInValue();

        if (userOptIn) {
            instance.optIn();
        }
        else {
            instance.optOut();
        }

        instance.connect();

        //Your other code...
        //...

    }

    protected boolean checkOptInValue(){
        // check opt-in value
        // return true; // if user opted-in
        return false;
    }
}

To opt-in/opt-out specific device-related parameters, you can use the OptInParams() or OptOutParams(). OptInParams() will only send device-related parameters that are specified. OptOutParams() will send all device-related parameters except ones that are specified. Please note that we require at least ip_address, advertising_id, developer_device_id, limit_ad_tracking, referrer (Android), and iad (iOS) to properly track devices in Tenjin's system. If you plan on using Google, you will also need to add: platform, os_version, locale, device_model, and build_id.

If you want to only get specific device-related parameters, use OptInParams(). In example below, we will only these device-related parameters: ip_address, advertising_id, developer_device_id, limit_ad_tracking, referrer, and iad:

String apiKey = "<API_KEY>";
TenjinSDK instance = TenjinSDK.getInstance(this, apiKey);

String[] optInParams = {"ip_address", "advertising_id", "developer_device_id", "limit_ad_tracking", "referrer", "iad"};
instance.optInParams(optInParams);

instance.connect();

If you want to send ALL parameters except specfic device-related parameters, use OptOutParams(). In example below, we will send ALL device-related parameters except:

String apiKey = "<API_KEY>";
TenjinSDK instance = TenjinSDK.getInstance(this, apiKey);

String[] optOutParams = {"locale", "timezone", "build_id"};
instance.optOutParams(optOutParams);

instance.connect();

Device-Related Parameters

Tenjin purchase event instructions:

To understand user revenue and purchase behavior, developers can send transaction events to Tenjin. There are two ways to send transaction events to Tenjin.

1. Validate receipts Tenjin can validate transaction receipts for you.

IMPORTANT: You will need to add your app's public key in the Tenjin dashboard > Your Android App > Edit. You can retreive your Base64-encoded RSA public key from the Google Play Developer Console > Select your app > Development Tools > Services & APIs.

After entering your Public Key into the Tenjin dashboard for your app, you can use the Tenjin SDK method below:

public void transaction(String productId, String currencyCode, int quantity, double unitPrice, String purchaseData, String dataSignature)

Here's an example of this can be implemented at the time of purchase (ex. code taken from here http://developer.android.com/google/play/billing/billing_integrate.html#Purchase):

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
   if (requestCode == 1001) {
      int responseCode = data.getIntExtra("RESPONSE_CODE", 0);
      String purchaseData = data.getStringExtra("INAPP_PURCHASE_DATA");
      String dataSignature = data.getStringExtra("INAPP_DATA_SIGNATURE");

      if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
         try {
            JSONObject jo = new JSONObject(purchaseData);
            String sku = jo.getString("productId");

            //Below, you will need to assign the currencyCode, quantity, and the price
            String apiKey = "<API_KEY>";
            TenjinSDK instance = TenjinSDK.getInstance(this, apiKey);]
            instance.transaction(sku, "USD", 1, 3.99, purchaseData, dataSignature)
          }
          catch (JSONException e) {
             alert("Failed to parse purchase data.");
             e.printStackTrace();
          }
      }
   }
}

You can verify if the IAP validation is working through our Live Test Device Data Tool. You should see a live event come in:

1. Pass the transaction manually (usually this is necessary if purchases are not handled by Google Play) To send transaction events, you must provide the productId, currencyCode, quantity, and unitPrice of the user's transaction following method signature below:

public void transaction(String productId, String currencyCode, int quantity, double unitPrice).

Here's an example of how this can be implemented at the time of purchase:

//The developer's own method for completing a transaction that happened in app
public void completeTransaction(String productId, String currencyCode, int quantity, double unitPrice){
  ...
  //Call the Tenjin SDK with the context and the API_KEY
  TenjinSDK.getInstance(this, "<API_KEY>").transaction(productId, currencyCode, quantity, unitPrice);
  ...
}

• productId -> Name or ID of the product that you're selling
• currencyCode -> Currency code of the price
• quantity -> Number of transactions that you are doing on this event
• unitPrice -> Unit price of a single transaction

Tenjin will calculate the Total Revenue from a transaction based on quantity*unitPrice Tenjin will record and track the revenue based on the currency code, quantity, and the unit price sent.

Tenjin custom event integration instructions:

You can use the Tenjin SDK to pass a custom event: eventWithName(String name).

The custom interactions with your app can be tied to level cost from each acquisition source that you use through Tenjin's service. Here is an example of usage:

String apiKey = <API_KEY>;
TenjinSDK instance = TenjinSDK.getInstance(this, apiKey);

//Integrate a custom event with a distinct name - ie. swiping right on the screen
instance.eventWithName("swipe_right");

Passing custom events with integer values:

NOTE: DO NOT SEND CUSTOM EVENTS BEFORE THE INITIALIZATION connect() event (above). The initialization event must come before any custom events are sent.

You can use the Tenjin SDK to pass a custom event with an integer value: eventWithNameAndValue(String name, String value) or eventWithNameAndValue(String name, int value).

Passing an integer value with an event's name allows marketers to sum up and track averages of the values passed for that metric in the Tenjin dashboard. If you plan to use DataVault, these values can be used to derive additional metrics that can be useful.

String apiKey = <API_KEY>;
TenjinSDK.instance = TenjinSDK.getInstance(this, apiKey);

//Integrate a custom event with a distinct name and value - ie. paying 100 virtual coins for an item
instance.eventWithNameAndValue("item", "100");

Using the example above, the Tenjin dashboard will sum and average the values for all events with the name item.

Keep in mind that this event will not work if the value passed not an integer.

Tenjin deferred deeplink integration instructions:

Tenjin supports the ability to direct users to a specific part of your app after a new attributed install via Tenjin's campaign tracking URLs. You can utilize the getDeeplink method and callback to access the deferred deeplink through the data object. To test you can follow the instructions found here.

import com.tenjin.android.TenjinSDK;
import com.tenjin.android.Callback;

public class TenjinDemo extends ActionBarActivity {

    //...other callbacks are here

    @Override
    public void onResume() {
        //standard code
        super.onResume()

        //Integrate TenjinSDK connect call
        String apiKey = "<API_KEY>";
        TenjinSDK instance = TenjinSDK.getInstance(this, apiKey);
        instance.connect();

        instance.getDeeplink(new Callback() {
            @Override
            public void onSuccess(boolean clickedTenjinLink, boolean isFirstSession, Map<String, String> data) {
                if (clickedTenjinLink) {
                    if (isFirstSession) {
                        if (data.containsKey(TenjinSDK.DEEPLINK_URL)) {
                           // use the deferred_deeplink_url to direct the user to a specific part of your app
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        });

        //Your other code...
        ...

    }

You can also use the v1.7.1+ SDK for handling post-install logic by checking the isFirstSession param. For example, if you have a paid app, you can register your paid app install in the following way:

import com.tenjin.android.TenjinSDK;

public class TenjinDemo extends ActionBarActivity {

    //...other callbacks are here

    @Override
    public void onResume() {
        //standard code
        super.onResume()

        //Integrate TenjinSDK connect call
        String apiKey = "<API_KEY>";
        TenjinSDK instance = TenjinSDK.getInstance(this, apiKey);
        instance.connect();

        instance.getDeeplink(new Callback() {
            @Override
            public void onSuccess(boolean clickedTenjinLink, boolean isFirstSession, Map<String, String> data) {
                if (isFirstSession) {
                  // send paid app price and revenue to Tenjin
                }
            }
        });

        //Your other code...
        ...

    }

Testing the Android Referrer:

To test the Android INSTALL_REFERRER is working:

1. Do the above initialization instrutions
2. Open up your ./adb shell. If adb is not in your home directory locate it in your Android SDK folder
3. Run your app
4. Filter for the REF tag in your IDE
5. Run and Test:

   am broadcast -a com.android.vending.INSTALL_REFERRER -n <com.your.apppackage>/com.tenjin.android.TenjinReferrerReceiver --es "referrer" "ai=test&gclid=click_test"
   

   After testing this you should see the output of the values passed to your referrer in your IDE console. In the case above you would see:

ai=test&gclid=click_test

ProGuard Settings:

-keep class com.tenjin.** { *; }
-keep public class com.google.android.gms.ads.identifier.** { *; }
-keep public class com.google.android.gms.common.** { *; }
-keep public class com.android.installreferrer.** { *; }
-keep class * extends java.util.ListResourceBundle {
    protected Object[][] getContents();
}
-keepattributes *Annotation*

App Subversion parameter for A/B Testing (requires DataVault)

If you are running A/B tests and want to report the differences, we can append a numeric value to your app version using the appendAppSubversion method. For example, if your app version 1.0.1, and set appendAppSubversion: @8888, it will report as 1.0.1.8888.

This data will appear within DataVault where you will be able to run reports using the app subversion values.

TenjinSDK instance = TenjinSDK.getInstance(this, "<API_KEY>");
instance.appendAppSubversion(8888);
instance.connect();
