Analytics-Kotlin Appcues

maven License: MIT

Add Appcues device mode support to your applications via this plugin for Analytics-Kotlin

Adding the dependency

To install the Segment-Appcues integration, simply add this line to your gradle file:

implementation 'com.appcues:segment-appcues:<latest_version>'

Or the following for Kotlin DSL

implementation("com.appcues:segment-appcues:<latest_version>")

An installation tutorial video is also available, for reference.

Using the Plugin in your App

Open the file where you setup and configure the Analytics-Kotlin library. Add this plugin to the list of imports.

import com.appcues.segment.AppcuesDestination

Just under your Analytics-Kotlin library setup, call analytics.add(plugin = ...) to add an instance of the plugin to the Analytics timeline.

    analytics = Analytics("<YOUR WRITE KEY>", applicationContext) {
        this.flushAt = 3
        this.trackApplicationLifecycleEvents = true
    }
    analytics.add(plugin = AppcuesDestination(applicationContext))

Your events will now begin to flow to Appcues in device mode.

Supporting Builder Preview and Screen Capture

During installation, follow the steps outlined in in the Appcues Android SDK documentation for Configuring the Appcues URL Scheme. This is necessary for the complete Appcues builder experience, supporting experience preview, screen capture and debugging.
