PhoneGap plug-in methods
You can use Android PhoneGap Plug-in methods to complete a variety of tasks.
In html
files where you want to use tracking, add the following to the <head>
tag:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="ADB_Helper.js"></script>
Configuration methods
-
getPrivacyStatus
Returns the privacy status for current user.
Here are the available statuses:
-
ADB.optedIn
: The hits are sent immediately. -
ADB.optedOut
: The hits are discarded. -
ADB.optUnknown
: If your report suite is timestamp-enabled, hits are saved until the privacy status changes to opt-in (hits are sent) or opt-out (hits are discarded). If your report suite is not timestamp-enabled, hits are discarded until the privacy status changes to opt in.The default value is set in the
ADBMobileConfig.json
file. -
Here is the code sample for this method:
getPrivacyStatus(function (value) { myTempVal = value; }, function () {myTempVal = null;});
-
-
setPrivacyStatus
Sets the privacy status for the current user to
status
.You can set one of the following statuses:
-
ADB.optedIn
: The hits are sent immediately. -
ADB.optedOut
: The hits are discarded. -
ADB.optUnknown
: If your report suite is timestamp-enabled, hits are saved until the privacy status changes to opt-in (hits are sent) or opt-out (hits are discarded). If your report suite is not timestamp-enabled, hits are discarded until the privacy status changes to opt in. -
Here is the code sample for this method:
ADB.setPrivacyStatus('ADB.optedIn');
-
-
getLifetimeValue
Returns the lifetime value of the current user. The default value is 0.
-
Here is the code sample for this method:
ADB.getLifetimeValue(function (value) { myTempVal = value }, function () { myTempVal = null; });
-
-
setDebugLogging
Enables (
true
) or disables (false
) viewing debug information. By default, this variable isfalse
.-
Here is the code sample for this method:
ADB.setDebugLogging(true);
-
-
getVersion
Gets the library version.
-
Here is the code sample for this method:
ADB.getVersion(function (value) { versionNum = value }, function () { versionNum = 1.0;});
-
-
trackingIdentifier
Returns the automatically generated visitor identifier.
This is an app-specific, unique visitor ID that is generated when the app is initially launched and is stored and used from that point. This ID is preserved between app upgrades and is removed when the app is uninstalled.
Tip: If your app upgrades from the Experience Cloud 3.x to 4.x SDK, the previous visitor ID (custom or automatically generated) is retrieved and stored as the custom user identifier. For more information, see
getUserIdentifier
below. This ID preserves visitor data between SDK upgrades.For new installations on the 4.x SDK, the user identifier is
null
and tracking identifier is used.-
Here is the code sample for this method:
ADB.trackingIdentifier(function (value) { myTempVal = value; }, function () { myTempVal = null; });
-
-
getUserIdentifier
If a customer user identifier has been set, returns this identifier; if the identifier has not been set, returns
null
. The default value isnull
.-

-
Here is the syntax for this method:
ADB.setPushIdentifier(pushIdentifier, success, fail);
-
Here is the code sample for this method:
ADB.setPushIdentifier('test_push_identifier',function (value) { alert('success'); },function (value) { alert('fail'); });
-
-
keepLifecycleSessionAlive
Sets the preference of lifecycle session keep alive.
Important: Calling
keepLifecycleSessionAlive
prevents your app from launching a new session the next time it is resumed from background. You should only use this method if your app registers for notifications in the background.-
