Cobrowse - Android SDK

Cobrowse - Android Native SDK

Installation

build.gradle

dependencies {
    // ... other dependencies ...
    implementation 'io.cobrowse:cobrowse-sdk-android:2.+'
}

Add the following lines to your code which will register this device with the SaleAssist Cobrowse servers so you can connect to it. You could choose to do this on app startup, or when your users visits a support page in your application, or any other time.

import io.cobrowse.CobrowseIO;
...

CobrowseIO.instance().license("put your license key here");
CobrowseIO.instance().start(this);

Registering on startup

If you would like your devices to register as soon as your app starts, we recommend doing this in your custom Application subclass onCreate method. For example:

package com.example;

import android.app.Application;
import io.cobrowse.CobrowseIO;

public class MainApplication extends Application {

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

        CobrowseIO.instance().license("put your license key here");
        CobrowseIO.instance().start(this);
    }
}

If you do not have a custom Application subclass in your app yet, you will also need to modify your application manifest:

AndroidManifest.xml

<application
    android:name=".MainApplication"
    <!-- ... -->
</application>

You may also start Cobrowse in your MainActivity or other Activity if necessary. In that case, the SDK will continue to function even as new Activities are being created and destroyed.
