ADBMobile.collectLifecycleData(withAdditionalData: ) in the AEP.

[#1]

Hi guys,

I'm migrating my iOS app from the Adobe Analytics to the Adobe Experience Platform.

Previously I used ADBMobile.collectLifecycleData(withAdditionalData: ) to provide some additional data. Which API should I use to achieve the same result in the AEP?

I see there is the ACPCore.lifecycleStart(data) which I'm calling in the beginning when I'm initializing the library. But what if I need to provide additional data later on?

Hi @aetsyss 

ACPCore.lifecycleStart(data) is the correct API to use when migrating from ADBMobile.collectLifecycleData(withAdditionalData:). Here's the documentation which lists the API changes between the Experience Platform SDKs and 4x SDKs, https://aep-sdks.gitbook.io/docs/api-change-log#lifecycle-extension-apis.  Also, here's the documentation for lifecycleStart(data), https://aep-sdks.gitbook.io/docs/using-mobile-extensions/mobile-core/lifecycle/lifecycle-extension-i...

I would also encourage you to look at using our latest mobile SDK for iOS written in Swift, if you are not already. If you are planning on sending data to the AEP Edge Network, you will need to use the AEP Core SDK with the AEP Edge extension. https://aep-sdks.gitbook.io/docs/v/AEP-Edge-Docs/getting-started/get-the-sdk#swift-objective-c

Thanks,
