</manifest>- Download the latest Android SDK from here.
- Add the tenjin.jar into your Android Studio project by selecting New > Module.
- In the New Module dialog, select the Import .JAR or .AAR Package option and click on Next.
- Select the tenjin.jar file click on Finish.
- 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:10.0.1'
compile 'com.android.installreferrer:installreferrer:1.0'
}- In your app module's build.gradle file, make sure to add this into the dependencies block:
dependencies {
compile project(":tenjin")
}- Download the latest Android SDK from here.
- Create a folder
libsin your project's root folder. - Copy the
tenjin.jarfile to thelibsfolder. - Right click on
tenjin.jarand then selectBuild Path->Add to Build Path
- This should create a folder called
Referenced Librariesin your project
- Install Google's
Android Support Repository,Android Support Library,Google Play ServicesandGoogle RepositorySDKs from the SDK Manager. Google outlines how to best configure this if you haven't already.
- Get your
API_KEYfrom your Tenjin Organization tab. - 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.getInstance(this, "[API_KEY]").connect();Or similarly here's an example of what the Activity integration(s) should look like:
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>; //You can potentially set this as a global variable too
TenjinSDK instance = TenjinSDK.getInstance(this, apiKey);
instance.connect();
//Your other code...
...
}3b. Alternate initialization with Facebook (DO NOT USE 3a and 3b. You need to use only one.)
import com.facebook.applinks.AppLinkData;
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>; //You can potentially set this as a global variable too
final TenjinSDK instance = TenjinSDK.getInstance(this, apiKey);
AppLinkData.fetchDeferredAppLinkData(this,
new AppLinkData.CompletionHandler() {
@Override
public void onDeferredAppLinkDataFetched(AppLinkData appLinkData) {
if (appLinkData != null) {
String appLinkUri = appLinkData.getTargetUri().toString();
instance.connect(appLinkUri);
} else {
instance.connect();
}
}
}
);
//Your other code...

}To understand user revenue and purchase behavior, developers can send transaction events to Tenjin. There are two ways to send transaction events to Tenjin.
- Validate receipts
Tenjin can validate
transactionreceipts for you. Visit your app on the dashboard (Apps -> Your Android App -> Edit) and enter your Public Key that can be found in your Google Play dashboard under "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");
//here you will need to assign the currencyCode, quantity, and the price
TenjinSDK.getInstance(this, API_KEY).transaction(sku, "USD", 1, 3.99, purchaseData, dataSignature)
}
catch (JSONException e) {
alert("Failed to parse purchase data.");
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}Once code implemented, send a test transaction to our backend to verify purchase events are coming in. 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 transaction from your app. You should see a live event come in showing the verified purchase event:
- Pass the transaction manually (usually this is necessary if purchases are not handled by Google Play)
To send
transactionevents, you must provide theproductId,currencyCode,quantity, andunitPriceof 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 sellingcurrencyCode-> Currency code of the pricequantity-> Number of transactions that you are doing on this eventunitPrice-> 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.
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");NOTE: DO NOT SEND CUSTOM EVENTS BEFORE THE INITIALIZATION 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 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;
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>; //You can potentially set this as a global variable too
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>; //You can potentially set this as a global variable too
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...
...
}To test the Android INSTALL_REFERRER is working:
- Do the above initialization instrutions
- Open up your
./adb shell. Ifadbis not in your home directory locate it in your Android SDK folder - Run your app
- Filter for the
REFtag in your IDE - 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
