🔌Initialize SDK

To make all of the features of the Playtime SDK available, you need to initialize it first. This initialization happens asynchronously in the background, with its completion indicated by a callback method. Make sure to initialize the SDK immediately after the app launches and after the user login in the app.

Best practices for the SDK initialization:

• Initialize early: Initialize the SDK as soon as possible after your app starts. This ensures all SDK features are ready for use right away.

• Initialize after your app authentication: Once a user signs up or logs in in your app, initialize the SDK again with the latest user details. This updates the userID within the SDK and ensures reward will be delivered to the user. If a user is not login in your app, you can pass blank or 0.

• Initialization triggers: Call the init method at the app start and after login

Initialization

The initialization will run in the main application process asynchronously in the background and notify you when it is finished by invoking the OfferWallInitListener's onInitSuccess or onAlreadyInitializing or onInitFailed method

Important: Initialization must happen on the main thread since it's a UI-related action. Calling any of the init methods off the main thread could lead to app disruptions.

Java

PlaytimeAds.getInstance().init(context, applicationKey, userID, new OfferWallInitListener() {
     @Override public void onInitSuccess() {
      Log.e("TAG", "onInitSuccess");
      }
     @Override public void onAlreadyInitializing() {
      Log.e("TAG", "onAlreadyInitializing");
      }
     @Override public void onInitFailed(String error) {
      Log.e("TAG", "onInitFailed: " + error);
      }
  });

Kotlin

PlaytimeAds.getInstance().destroy()// clears your previous session
PlaytimeAds.getInstance().init(context, applicationKey, userID,object : OfferWallInitListener {
      override fun onInitSuccess() {
      Log.e("TAG", "onInitSuccess");
      }
      override fun onAlreadyInitializing() {
      Log.e("TAG", "onAlreadyInitializing");
      }
      override fun onInitFailed(error: String?) {
      Log.e("TAG", "onInitFailed: " + error);
      }
  })

Parameters:

Parameter	Type	Explanation
UserID	String	A custom that will be used to identify your user uniquely. This will be sent back in the postback. If user is not logged-in in your app, please pass 0 or blank in UserId. Max character limit is 50 characters.
applicationKey	String	Application key provided in publisher panel for your application

Re-initialize Playtime SDK after user login. Otherwise rewarding the user is not guaranteed

Note: If SDK is already initialized, You need to destroy previous session first in order to initialize it again for new UserId.

Clear Session on Logout

Don't miss to clear Playtime session when users logout from the app.

Java

PlaytimeAds.getInstance().destroy(); // clears your previous session

Kotlin

PlaytimeAds.getInstance().destroy()// clears your previous session
