Before You Begin
Requirements
- Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich - API version 14 and above)
- Amazon OS 5.4 and above
- In-Feed and MREC ads requires API version 16 and above
AndroidX Compatibility
Vungle Android SDK 6.4.11 or earlier versions do not officially support AndroidX. Publishers must use migration tool that is available from Android Studio to transform the SDK and its dependencies (third-party libraries) for AndroidX compatibility. The official support for AndroidX will be available with 6.5.0 which is currently in early access stage, and that version would not need any further transformation to be AndroidX compatible. Please reach out through your Account Manager for early access to 6.5.0 if you needed.
Java Doc
Sample App
Step 1. Include the Vungle SDK in Your Project
The Vungle SDK is available in two ways: as an AAR via Maven, or JAR integration.
Option 1. Gradle Integration
Open the project-level build.gradle
, and ensure that the JCenter details are as below.
allprojects {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
}
Open the app-level build.gradle
file for your app, and add compile dependencies in the dependencies section.
buildscript {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
}
dependencies {
// Vungle SDK
implementation 'com.vungle:publisher-sdk-android:6.4.11'
// Either appcompat-v7 or support-v4 is need for SDK operation
implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0' // Either
implementation 'com.android.support:support-v4:27.1.1' // Or
// Recommended for SDK to be able to get Android Advertising ID
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-basement:16.0.0'
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads-identifier:16.0.0'
}
If you include the Vungle SDK via Maven, you can skip to "Step 2. Import the Vungle SDK."
Option 2. JAR/AAR Integration
- Download Vungle SDK v. 6 , unzip it, go to the
libs
folder, copy all the jars and add them to your projectlibs
folder.
Note : This zip file contains SDK as a .jar as well as an .aar. Use only one of these depending on jar/aar integration.
In case if you are using remote JCenter gradle integration, this zip file and its contents are not needed. - Open the project-level
build.gradle
, and update the repositories section:
allprojects {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
} - Open the app-level
build.gradle
file for your app, and add other dependencies in the dependencies section. If you are using .aar instead of .jar, you do not need to includeVNG-moat-mobile-app-kit-2.5.1.jar
since .aar is already packaged with this library.
dependencies { // Vungle SDK implementation files('libs/vungle-android-sdk-6.4.11.jar') // Required Third-party Dependencies implementation files('libs/converter-gson-2.5.0.jar') implementation files('libs/gson-2.8.2.jar') implementation files('libs/logging-interceptor-3.12.0.jar') implementation files('libs/okhttp-3.12.0.jar') implementation files('libs/okio-1.15.0.jar') implementation files('libs/retrofit-2.5.0.jar') implementation files('libs/VNG-moat-mobile-app-kit-2.5.1.jar') // Exclude when using AAR // Either appcompat-v7 or support-v4 is need for SDK operation implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0' // Either implementation 'com.android.support:support-v4:27.1.1' // Or // Recommended for SDK to be able to get Android Advertising ID implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-basement:16.0.0' implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads-identifier:16.0.0' }
- Update AndroidManifest.xml by adding the following lines to your
AndroidManifest.xml
and assigning the application item name to your application class name for multidex:
<!--Required Permissions--> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" /> <!--Recommended Permissions--> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" android:maxSdkVersion="18" /> <!--Vungle Activities--> <activity android:name="com.vungle.warren.ui.VungleActivity" android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize|screenLayout|smallestScreenSize" android:launchMode="singleTop" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen" /> <activity android:name="com.vungle.warren.ui.VungleFlexViewActivity" android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize|screenLayout|smallestScreenSize" android:launchMode="singleTop" android:hardwareAccelerated="true" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar" /> <activity android:name="com.vungle.warren.ui.VungleWebViewActivity" android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize|screenLayout|smallestScreenSize" android:launchMode="singleTop" /> <receiver android:name="com.vungle.warren.NetworkProviderReceiver" android:enabled="false"> <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.net.conn.CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" /> </intent-filter> </receiver>
Step 2. Import the Vungle SDK
import com.vungle.warren.Vungle;
import com.vungle.warren.AdConfig; // Custom ad configurations
import com.vungle.warren.InitCallback; // Initialization callback
import com.vungle.warren.LoadAdCallback; // Load ad callback
import com.vungle.warren.PlayAdCallback; // Play ad callback
import com.vungle.warren.VungleNativeAd; // In-Feed and MREC ad
import com.vungle.warren.Vungle.Consent; // GDPR consent
import com.vungle.warren.VungleSettings; // Minimum disk space
import com.vungle.warren.error.VungleException; // onError message
Step 3. Initialize the Vungle SDK
Starting with v6.3.12, we have removed the requirement for passing all placement reference ID to be used in the session during the initialization. SDK initialization can now be done without passing Collection of placement reference ID and all active placements for the application ID will be usable to play and load ad. You can still use the legacy API, but it is planned to be deprecated in the future.
// New v6 API
public static void init(@NonNull String appId,
@NonNull Context context,
@NonNull InitCallback callback)
// New v6.4.11 API with optional minimum disk space configuration
public static void init(@NonNull final String appId,
@NonNull final Context context,
@NonNull final InitCallback callback,
@NonNull final VungleSettings settings)
// Legacy v6 API
@Deprecated
public static void init(@NonNull final Collection placements,
@NonNull String appId,
@NonNull Context context,
@NonNull InitCallback callback)
The initialization method takes the following parameters:
- Vungle Application ID
- Application context
InitCallback
onSuccess
: notifies when SDK has successfully initializedonError
: notifies when the initialization has failed- throws
IllegalArgumentException
ifInitCallback
is null - throws
VungleException
if required arguments are missing or invalid
- throws
onAutoCacheAdAvailable
: notifies when the auto-cached placement has an ad available to play
- VungleSettings (optional)
- Specify minimum space available on device for SDK initialization and operation
For all placements, loadAd must be explicitly issued as described in “Step 5. Load an Ad.”
Vungle.init(appId, getApplicationContext(), new InitCallback() {
@Override
public void onSuccess() {
// Initialization has succeeded and SDK is ready to load an ad or play one if there
// is one pre-cached already
}
@Override
public void onError(Throwable throwable) {
// Initialization error occurred - throwable.getLocalizedMessage() contains error message
}
@Override
public void onAutoCacheAdAvailable(String placementId) {
// Callback to notify when an ad becomes available for the cache optimized placement
// NOTE: This callback works only for the cache optimized placement. Otherwise, please use
// LoadAdCallback with loadAd API for loading placements.
}
};
You can check whether Vungle SDK is initialized anytime by calling the isInitialized
method:
public static boolean isInitialized()
Step 4. Event Listener
Implement LoadAdCallback
for ad load events and PlayAdCallback
for ad play events now if you want to use generic callback for all events. Otherwise, skip to “Step 5. Load an Ad” to implement inline callbacks.
// Implement LoadAdCallback
private final LoadAdCallback vungleLoadAdCallback = new LoadAdCallback() {
@Override
public void onAdLoad(String placementReferenceId) {
// Placement reference ID for the placement to load ad assets
}
@Override
public void onError(String placementReferenceId, Throwable throwable) {
// Placement reference ID for the placement that failed to download ad assets
// Throwable contains error message
}
};
// Implement PlayAdCallback
private final PlayAdCallback vunglePlayAdCallback = new PlayAdCallback() {
@Override
public void onAdStart(String placementReferenceId) {
// Placement reference ID for the placement to be played
}
@Override
public void onAdEnd (String placementReferenceId, boolean completed, boolean isCTAClicked) {
// Placement reference ID for the placement that has completed ad experience
// completed has value of true or false to notify whether video was
// watched for 80% or more
// isCTAClkcked has value of true or false to indicate whether download button
// of an ad has been clicked by the user
}
@Override
public void onError(String placementReferenceId, Throwable throwable) {
// Placement reference ID for the placement that failed to play an ad
// Throwable contains error message
}
};
Step 5. Load an Ad
The LoadAdCallback
will be notified about the load state for the call to which it was assigned. The SDK only references this callback and does not store it anywhere; it is the responsibility of the caller to ensure that the callback is managed properly.
public static void loadAd(@NonNull final String id, @Nullable LoadAdCallback callback)
// Load Ad Implementation
if (Vungle.isInitialized()) {
Vungle.loadAd("PLACEMENT_ID", new LoadAdCallback() {
@Override
public void onAdLoad(String placementReferenceId) { }
@Override
public void onError(String placementReferenceId, Throwable throwable) {
// Load ad error occurred - throwable.getLocalizedMessage() contains error message
}
};
}
Step 6. Check Ad Availability
Use static method canPlayAdmethod
to check if there is an ad available to play for the placement before invoking the playAd
method
public static boolean canPlayAd(@NonNull String id)
Step 7. Play an Ad
To play an ad, invoke the playAd
method, with the placement reference ID, optional AdConfig
(null if not being used), and a PlayAdCallback
event listener, which will be notified of success or errors during ad playback.
public static void playAd(@NonNull final String id, final AdConfig settings, @Nullable final PlayAdCallback listener)
You should always check ad availability by calling the canPlayAd
method before invoking the playAd
method. You must also make sure that an additional playAd
is not issued before your receive an onAdEnd
or an onError
callback from the initial playAd
call, because the ad will not render properly if playAd
is repeatedly called in quick succession.
if (Vungle.canPlayAd("PLACEMENT_ID")) {
Vungle.playAd("PLACEMENT_ID", null, new PlayAdCallback() {
@Override
public void onAdStart(String placementReferenceId) { }
@Override
public void onAdEnd(String placementReferenceId, boolean completed, boolean isCTAClicked) { }
@Override
public void onError(String placementReferenceId, Throwable throwable) {
// Play ad error occurred - throwable.getLocalizedMessage() contains error message
}
});
}
Re-initialize SDK when onError
occurs
On rare occurrences, resources can become limited, causing the system to deallocate either part of the Vungle SDK, or some of the third-party dependencies our SDK requires. In such cases, LoadAdCallback
and
PlayAdCallback
fire an onError
callback with a Throwable object with a code of ‘VungleException.VUNGLE_NOT_INTIALIZED’
. This indicates that the Vungle SDK is an inoperable state and must be re-initialized.
@Override
public void onError(String placementReferenceID, Throwable throwable) {
try {
VungleException ex = (VungleException) throwable;
if (ex.getExceptionCode() == VungleException.VUNGLE_NOT_INTIALIZED) {
initializeVungleSDK();
}
} catch (ClassCastException cex) {
Log.d(LOG_TAG, cex.getMessage());
}
}
Native Ads
In-Feed Ads
The In-Feed ad format does not require a full screen to display; instead, the Publisher determines the exact dimensions and location of the ad container within their app. These ad containers can be in collection views or table/list views.
Loading an In-Feed Ads
The Publisher must load an ad for the In-Feed container. Loading a In-Feed ad is same as loading a full-screen or interstitial ad; however, the placement must be configured to support In-Feed.
Displaying an In-Feed Ad
Displaying In-Feed ads differs from displaying full-screen ads. With In-Feed ads, you must first create a container for the ad. This container is a Layout. You can place said RelativeLayout
anywhere on the screen. The ad will scale to any size of container, but keep in mind that very low resolution will make ads less visible. You must then call the Vungle.getNativeAd
to get the In-Feed ad object and call the addView
function to associate the container with the In-Feed ad.
private RelativeLayout flexfeedContainer = findViewById(...);
VungleNativeAd vungleNativeAd = Vungle.getNativeAd("INFEED_ID", vunglePlayAdCallback);
if (vungleNativeAd != null) {
View nativeAdView = vungleNativeAd.renderNativeView();
flexfeedContainer.addView(nativeAdView);
}
Closing an In-Feed Ad
Because the In-Feed ad view has been added to your container view, it must also be removed in case the ad view disappears from the screen, the activity or fragment is destroyed, or the parent view container is recycled or destroyed. Without closing the ad, attempting to play another In-Feed ad will cause unexpected behavior in your app.
private VungleNativeAd vungleNativeAd;
// Calling finishDisplayingAd when you want to finish displaying In-Feed Ad
// will trigger onAdEnd and will tell you when you can remove the child
// In-Feed view container vungleNativeAd.finishDisplayingAd();
// And removing empty ad view from container
@Override
public void onAdEnd(String id, boolean completed) {
…
parentView.removeView(nativeAdView);
vungleNativeAd = null;
…
}
Attaching and Detaching the State of an In-Feed Ad
If the user scrolls to a point where the video ad is no longer visible on the screen, the Publisher must pause the video, and resume it when it is again visible. To control the pause and resume states, call setAdVisibility from the VungleNativeAd instance, and set it to ‘true’ when the video is visible and to ‘false’ when the video goes off screen. The setAdVisibility is not to be confused with View visibility: this setter informs Vungle SDK whether the Native ad view is visible or not, and depending on it, the SDK pauses/resumes video playback.
To Pause an In-Feed Ad
vungleNativeAd.setAdVisibility(false);
To Resume an In-Feed Ad
vungleNativeAd.setAdVisibility(true);
MREC Ads
From SDK version 6.4.11 and above, Vungle supports MREC video ads, which does not require full screen view, similar to In-Feed ad. The container size to render MREC ad is 300 by 250 which is the industry standard. MREC video ads can be set anywhere on the screen and the user can continue using the app while the ad is being played.
Loading an MREC Ad
Loading an MREC ad is same as loading a full screen ad. However, the placement must be configured to support MREC feed. Please contact your Vungle account manager to enable MREC for a placement.
Displaying an MREC Ad
Since the view size is fixed, the container which is used to display MREC must be specified to be 300dp by 250dp, and the view can be placed anywhere on the screen. This container is a Layout. You can place said RelativeLayout
anywhere on the screen. You must then call AdConfig.setAdSize
to specify ad size to be AdConfig.AdSize.VUNGLE_MREC
and pass this object when calling Vungle.getNativeAd
to get the MREC ad object. finally call the addView
function to associate the container with the MREC ad.
private RelativeLayout mrecContainer = findViewById(...);
AdConfig adConfig = new AdConfig();
adConfig.setAdSize(AdConfig.AdSize.VUNGLE_MREC);
VungleNativeAd vungleNativeAd = Vungle.getNativeAd("MREC_ID", adConfig, vunglePlayAdCallback);
View nativeAdView = vungleNativeAd.renderNativeView();
mrecContainer.addView(nativeAdView);
Closing an MREC Ad
Because the MREC ad view has been added to your container view, it must also be removed in case the ad view disappears from the screen, the activity or fragment is destroyed, or the parent view container is recycled or destroyed. Without closing the ad, attempting to play another In-Feed ad will cause unexpected behaviour in your app.
private VungleNativeAd vungleNativeAd;
// Calling finishDisplayingAd when you want to finish displaying MREC Ad
// will trigger onAdEnd and will tell you when you can remove the child
// MREC view container vungleNativeAd.finishDisplayingAd();
// And removing empty ad view from container
@Override
public void onAdEnd(String id, boolean completed) {
…
parentView.removeView(nativeAdView);
vungleNativeAd = null;
…
}
Attaching and detaching the state of an MREC Ad
If the user scrolls to a point where the video ad is no longer visible on the screen, the Publisher must pause the video, and resume it when it is again visible. To control the pause and resume states, call setAdVisibility
from the VungleNativeAd
instance, and set it to ‘true
’ when the video is visible and to ‘false
’ when the video goes off screen. The setAdVisibility
is not to be confused with View visibility: this setter informs Vungle SDK whether the native ad view is visible or not, and depending on it, the SDK pauses/resumes video playback.
To Pause an MREC Ad
vungleNativeAd.setAdVisibility(false);
To Resume an MREC Ad
vungleNativeAd.setAdVisibility(true);
Advanced Settings
Google Play Services (Optional)
Including Google Play Services with your project allows Vungle to provide a more customized ad experience to the end user. Including basement and ads-identifier API’s are optional but recommended. We recommend using version 11.0.1 or higher.
To include Google Play Services, we recommend Google's setup guide. In your app, ensure that the device has a sufficiently updated version of Google Play Services. Vungle SDK optionally utilizes the location and ads API from Google Play Services.
- google.android.gms:play-services-basement:16.0.0 // Recommended
- google.android.gms:play-services-ads-identifier:16.0.0 // Required for AAID
Method Count Reduction
Adding Vungle Android SDK v6 to your project will add approximately 700 core Vungle methods, excluding any transitive dependencies. A full integration including third-party libraries is expected to add less than 4000 methods in average. Consider the following suggestions to reduce the total number of methods added to your project.
- ProGuard: You can enable ProGuard to shrink your project code. It will discard any unused classes at the time of compilation to make the total method count as small as possible. You can enable it by specifying minifyEnabled true in build.gradle for appropriate build type and by providing the rules to keep the classes that is required by your project.
- Multidex: If you are still above a 65K method count, enabling multiDex may be the only solution provided by Google. You need to configure your project to multiDex only one time, but it will have an impact on build and app startup time.
Proguard
If you are using Proguard, add the following rules to your ProGuard configuration file:
# Vungle
-keep class com.vungle.warren.** { *; }
-keep class com.vungle.warren.downloader.DownloadRequest
-dontwarn com.vungle.warren.error.VungleError$ErrorCode
-dontwarn com.vungle.warren.downloader.DownloadRequest$Status

-dontwarn org.conscrypt.**
-keepnames class okhttp3.internal.publicsuffix.PublicSuffixDatabase
-keepclassmembers class * extends com.vungle.warren.persistence.Memorable {
public <init>(byte[]);
}
Minimum disk space
Minimum disk space configuration was introduced in v6.4.11 to determine the limits for available space on a user’s device before the Vungle SDK initializes and fetch ads. Default value for setMinimumSpaceForInit is 51 MB and setMinimumSpaceForAd is 50 MB. The size is entered in bytes.
VungleSettings vungleSettings = new VungleSettings.Builder()
.setMinimumSpaceForInit(51L * 1024L * 1024L) // 51 MB
.setMinimumSpaceForAd(50L * 1024L * 1024L) // 50 MB
.build();
Vungle.init(appId, getApplicationContext(), initCallback, vungleSettings);
Restrict usage of device ID
For Android SDK version 6.4.11 onwards, publishers can now restrict from passing Android ID from the device to the SDK.
// Set true to opt out for Android ID collection by SDK or false (default) to opt in
VungleSettings vungleSettings = new VungleSettings.Builder()
.setAndroidIdOptOut(true)
.build();
Vungle.init(appId, getApplicationContext(), initCallback, vungleSettings);
Ad Configuration Options
Ad Configuration
You have the option to customize individual ads you play by providing a new adConfig
object to playAd
. AdConfig
is an object and can be null, in which case the ad will play with default configurations; or it can be a non-null with overrides to the AdConfig
setter. The following is an example of how to use AdConfig
Vungle.playAd(placementReferenceID, adConfig, vunglePlayAdCallback);
The above uses adConfig
object that has customization option configuration and you set the AdConfig
object as shown here
AdConfig adConfig = new AdConfig();
adConfig.setAutoRotate(true);
adConfig.setMuted(true);
Vungle.playAd(placementReferenceID, adConfig, vunglePlayAdCallback);
The following table shows all the available AdConfig
options.
Option |
Description |
|
true if back button should be enabled before ad close button appears, false otherwise |
|
true if the video ad is supposed to auto-rotate, false to follow video ad orientation |
|
false if the video should start with its audio settings matching those of your enclosing application, true if it should start muted regardless |
|
Takes an Integer value of ordinal count to track the number of ads that has been played in same session |
Note: You may use the same AdConfig
object for multiple ads Placement Reference IDs you play.
Customizing Rewarded Ads
The pop-up message dialog for rewarded ads is configurable with setIncentivizedFields method.
public static void setIncentivizedFields(@Nullable String userID, @Nullable String title, @Nullable String body, @Nullable String keepWatching, @Nullable String close)
List of Valid Placements
A helper method that returns Collection of String containing all valid Placement Reference IDs for the current session.
public static Collection getValidPlacements()
GDPR Recommended Implementation Instructions
As of May 25th, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) will be enforced in the European Union. To comply with GDPR, developers have two options.
- Option 1 (recommended): Publisher controls the GDPR consent process at the user level, then communicates the user’s choice to Vungle. To do this, developers can collect the user’s consent using their own mechanism, and then use Vungle APIs to update or query the user’s consent status. Refer to the GDPR Recommended Implementation Instruction section for details.
- Option 2: Allow Vungle to handle the requirements. Vungle will display a consent dialog before playing an ad for a European user, and will remember the user’s consent or rejection for subsequent ads.
The updateConsentStatus method (as recommended in Option 1) takes user consent status and consent message version as its parameters.
public static void updateConsentStatus(@NonNull Consent status, @NonNull String consentMessageVersion)
The consent status will specify whether the user has OPTED_IN or OPTED_OUT for the message being displayed by the publisher. The consentMessageVersion indicates publisher controlled consent policy version to allow publisher getting consent again when GDPR policy changes by pooling users by the message version.
// Usage example of GDPR API
// To set the user's consent status to opted in:
Vungle.updateConsentStatus(Vungle.Consent.OPTED_IN, “1.0.0”);
// To set the user's consent status to opted out:
Vungle.updateConsentStatus(Vungle.Consent.OPTED_OUT, “1.0.0”);
// To find out what the user's current consent status is:
// This will return null if the GDPR Consent status has not been set
// Otherwise, it will return Vungle.Consent.OPTED_IN or Vungle.Consent.OPTED_OUT
Vungle.Consent currentStatus = Vungle.getConsentStatus();
String consentMessageVersion = Vungle.getConsentMessageVersion();
Hardware Acceleration
Hardware acceleration Hardware acceleration is enabled by default for your application if your target API level is set to 14 or above. This option must be enabled for the SDK to properly show Dynamic Template and Native Flex ads. Make sure this option is set to 'true' at application level of your project.
<application android:hardwareAccelerated="true" ...>
Retrieving the SDK Version Number
To programmatically retrieve the SDK version number at runtime (this useful in internal mediation), Vungle provides the following String:
com.vungle.warren.BuildConfig.VERSION_NAME
Debugging Exception Code
InitCallback
, PlayAdCallback
and LoadAdCallback
will have VungleException
code when onError
callback fires. You can use the code to debug or take actions to correct the issue programmatically.
if (throwable instanceof VungleException &&
((VungleException) throwable).getExceptionCode() == VungleException.VUNGLE_NOT_INTIALIZED) {
// call routine to initialize SDK
}
Exception Code | Description |
CONFIGURATION_ERROR | Configuration Error Occurred. Please check your app ID and placement reference IDs, and try again when network connectivity is available. |
NO_SERVE | Ad server found no advertisements are available for your current bid. Please try again later. Occurrence of this exception is expected behavior. |
UNKNOWN_ERROR | Unknown Error Occurred. Occurrence of this exception should be rare. |
AD_EXPIRED | The advertisement in the cache has expired and can no longer be played. Please load another ad. |
MISSING_REQUIRED_ARGUMENTS_FOR_INIT | Please ensure all parameter for init marked as NonNull are provided, as they are essential for functioning of our SDK. |
APPLICATION_CONTEXT_REQUIRED | Please provide Application context so our SDK can continue to support our API beyond Activity lifecycle. |
OPERATION_ONGOING | There is already an ongoing operation for the action you requested. Please wait until the operation finished before starting another. |
VUNGLE_NOT_INTIALIZED | Vungle is not initialized or no longer initialized. Please call Vungle.init() to reinitialize. |
AD_UNABLE_TO_PLAY | Unable to play advertisement. |
AD_FAILED_TO_DOWNLOAD | Advertisement failed to download. |
PLACEMENT_NOT_FOUND | Placement is not valid. |
SERVER_RETRY_ERROR | Remote Server responded with http Retry-After, SDK will retry this request. |
Configuring Auto Backup for JAR Integration
The ‘Allow backup’ setting is enabled by default for your application for API 23 or above. The backup rule ensures that all application data is backed up for proper operation of Vungle SDK and application itself. If you have not disabled the allow backup setting or specified your own backup rules, you must provide additional .xml rules to define which files in our SDK file system should be excluded from automatic backup.
Vungle Exclusion Rules
<full-backup-content>
<exclude domain="file" path="vungle" />
<exclude domain="file" path="vungle_cache" />
<exclude domain="external" path="vungle_cache" />
<exclude domain="database" path="vungle_db" />
<exclude domain="sharedpref" path="com.vungle.sdk.xml" />
</full-backup-content>
Gradle Integration with Developer Backup Rules
- Add Vungle SDK exclusion rules to the existing .xml file that has your app’s own exclusion rules.
- Configure
fullBackupContent
to be replaced on the application level and add the Vungle SDK exclusion rule to the existing .xml.
JAR Integration with developer backup rules
- Create a new XML file with Vungle exclusion rules.
- Place the .xml file under the
res/xml
directory. - Add
fullBackupContent
in the application tag ofAndroidManifest.xml
with the file name of the .xml file you created above.
<application android:fullBackupContent="@xml/vungle_backup_rule">
Disabling Auto Backup
If backup is not required for your app, you can simply disable it on the application tag:
<application android:allowBackup="false" >
