Notice about collecting statistics
You can notify your app users that statistics will be collected, and initialize the SDK with disabled statistics sending before getting consent. This section describes the steps to disable and enable statistics collection:
To initialize a library with statistics sending option disabled, pass the value false into the withStatisticsSending(boolean value) method when creating an extended library configuration.
// Creating an extended library configuration.
AppMetricaConfig config = AppMetricaConfig.newConfigBuilder(API_key)
// Disabling sending statistics.
.withStatisticsSending(false)
.build();
// Initializing the AppMetrica SDK.
AppMetrica.activate(getApplicationContext(), config);
After the user has confirmed to send statistics (for example, in the application settings or in the agreement on the first start of the app), you should call the AppMetrica.setStatisticsSending(Context context, boolean enabled method to enable it:
// Checking the status of the boolean variable. It shows the user confirmation.
if (flag) {
// Enabling sending statistics.
AppMetrica.setStatisticsSending(getApplicationContext(), true);
}
To initialize a library with statistics sending option disabled, set the value NO for the statisticsSending property of the YMMYandexMetricaConfiguration configuration.
// Creating an extended library configuration.
YMMYandexMetricaConfiguration *configuration = [[YMMYandexMetricaConfiguration alloc] initWithApiKey:@"API_key"];
// Disabling sending statistics.
configuration.statisticsSending = NO;
// Initializing the AppMetrica SDK.
[YMMYandexMetrica activateWithConfiguration:configuration];
After the user has confirmed to send statistics (for example, in the application settings or in the agreement on the first start of the app), you should call the +setStatisticsSending: method of the YMMYandexMetrica class to enable it.
// Checking the status of the boolean variable. It shows the user confirmation.
if (flag) {
// Enabling sending statistics.
[YMMYandexMetrica setStatisticsSending:YES];
}
To initialize a library with statistics sending option disabled, set the value NO for the statisticsSending property of the YMMYandexMetricaConfiguration configuration.
// Creating an extended library configuration.
let configuration = YMMYandexMetricaConfiguration.init(apiKey: "API key")
// Disabling sending statistics.
configuration?.statisticsSending = false
// Initializing the AppMetrica SDK.
YMMYandexMetrica.activate(with: configuration!)
After the user has confirmed to send statistics (for example, in the application settings or in the agreement on the first start of the app), you should call the setStatisticsSending(_:) method of the YMMYandexMetrica class to enable it.
// Checking the status of the boolean variable. It shows the user confirmation.
if flag {
// Enabling sending statistics.
YMMYandexMetrica.setStatisticsSending(true);
}
