The SOOMLA SDK

The SOOMLA SDK is responsible for the collection of different ad interaction events from the various ad network SDKs integrated into your app. Data collection is done automatically which makes the integration amazingly simple (almost zero-coding).

How it works?

Once the SOOMLA SDK is initialized, it automatically detects which ad networks' SDKs are integrated in the app. For each one of these Ad Networks' SDKs, the SOOMLA SDK knows exactly how to listen to all events and attributes it needs to collect in order to allow the SOOMLA Platform to work.

SOOMLA keeps improving it's SDKs and methods trying to make it as easy as possible on your R&D teams to integrate and operate its SDK. Each time an ad networks changes its SDK logic, SOOMLA also adapts to those changes so data collection will continue normally.

make sure you have created an app on the SOOMLA Dashboard, you will need your app key to complete this integration.
(article: Creating a new App in Dashboard)

1. Add the SOOMLA SDK to your App:

Just download the SDK and follow the instructions below

 
Version
 
Last
 Updated
Download 

SOOMLA Agent - Adobe-Air

In Flash Builder, right click on your project and go to Properties ➣ Flex Build Path ➣ Native Extensions. Click “Add ANE...” and select the downloaded SoomlaTraceback-vx.x.x.ane.
Right click on your project and go to Properties ➣ Flex Build Packaging ➣ Android/iOS ➣ Native Extensions and make sure that the SoomlaTraceback Air Plugin ANE file is marked as “Package”.

2. Initializing the SDK:

SOOMLA must be initialized before the ad networks' SDKs or things will not work properly.

(How to find your App Key)

Make sure to initialize SoomlaTraceback as soon as possible in your app:


private function init(event:FlexEvent):void {

    // Get the appKey from the App's Settings page.
    var appKey:String = "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx";
    
    // NOTE: you need to pass 'false' as the last parameter so your app won't run in test mode (more details about test mode below).

    // Initialize
    SoomlaTraceback.instance.initialize(appKey, false);
    
    ...
    
}

That's it!

Android permissions

If you build for Android, Make sure you have the following permissions in yourAndroidManifest.xml:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>

Proguard

If you build for Android and you use Proguard to obfuscate your code (and you should), Add the following lines to your proguard config:
