Android SDK Installation
- Add Smartlook in your app’s
build.gradle
:
implementation 'com.smartlook.recording:app:1.7.0-native'
- Add Smartlook Maven repository in your projects
build.gradle
:
allprojects {repositories {maven {url "https://sdk.smartlook.com/android/release"}}}
- Setup and start Smartlook in onCreate() of your Application class:
public class MyCustomApplication extends Application {@Overridepublic void onCreate() {super.onCreate();Smartlook.setupAndStartRecording(YOUR_API_KEY);}}
To setup Smartlook, the unique project API key is needed. It can be found in the mobile project settings in the Smartlook Dashboard.
- Smartlook now starts recording the app. The recordings will appear in the Smartlook player shortly.
SDK will upload sessions only on Wi-Fi. When uploading on mobile connections is requested, it must be enabled in the project settings in the dashboard. More details about the recording process can be found in the Conceptual documentation.
