Adobe Launch SDK creation steps followed - no traffic in RS

[stephenr6438258]

Hello,

We're at our first app config install and have been using the documentation here Overview - Adobe Experience Platform Mobile SDKs  however nothing is appearing in our development RS.

We've followed the steps and have set up a new Launch property running Mobile Core, Analytics, Target, Target vec and Profile. All published to Development and the Mobile Install Documents forwarded to our development team.

Our Development team have followed the instruction in getting the SDK initialized and adding analytics, target.

They have also sent the verbose logs showing what seems to be the SDK connecting up:

If anyone has experienced similar pain or can see something we've missed we'd really appreciate the help on getting this SDK passing data into analytics.

Many thanks

Hey there,

It looks like your configuration response is being processed correctly:

I'm not seeing anything in the log where the SDK is attempting to send data to Analytics.  Are you calling tracking APIs (e.g. - trackState:data: or trackAction:data:) for which you are expecting to see data?

Thanks.

Thanks Steve, that makes sense. We we're under the impression that things like launches would be pushed without the need to set. We'll add some in and update this post.

[steve_benedick]

Yeah, sounds like you're familiar with the v4 SDK where all lifecycle traffic was handled automatically in iOS .

In the new SDK, it's now a manual process, which provides more flexibility for our customers.  Read here for more info on lifecycle: Initialize the SDK and set up tracking - Adobe Experience Platform Mobile SDKs

Hope this helps.

Thanks for your help Steve, we're up and running. One final question if I may;

I'm having a bit of an issue with the product string, I can see the contents of the product string if I set a processing rule for products(Context Data) it to an s.prop. However this is not making it's way to the main product dimension.

Is there anything obvious in the call below which would suggest it's not being set correctly in the app call?

AdobeExperienceSDK DEBUG <AnalyticsHitDatabase>]: Analytics request was sent with body (ndh=1&c.&a.&AppID=Poss%201%20%281.0.0%29&CarrierName=%28null%29&DeviceName=x86_64&OSVersion=iOS%2012.2&Resolution=1125x2436&RunMode=Application&TimeSinceLaunch=23&action=purchase&.a&events=purchase%2Cevent999&products=membership%20-%20dining%20app%3BBxxxxxer%3B1%3B%3Bevent999%3BeVar85%3DTwo-for-one%20on%20all%20courses&.c&aamb=j8Odv6LonN4r3an7LhD3WZrU1bUpAkFkkiY1ncBR96t2PTI&aamlh=9&ce=UTF-8&cp=foreground&mid=4953474044xxxxxxxxxx1441173805929&pageName=Poss%201%20%281.0.0%29&pe=lnk_o&pev2=AMACTION%3Apurchase&t=00%2F00%2F0000%2000%3A00%3A00%200%20-60)

[steve_benedick]

Hey Stephen,

Glad to hear you've got things running!

Regarding product string, the suggested implementation is outside of context data.  There is a special combination of characters that you can use in your context data key to indicate you want a value to go directly in the hit instead of being a part of context data, outlined more for you here: Product variable - Adobe Experience Platform Mobile SDKs

Hope this helps.
