January 21
What's New
- Supports triggering In-App campaigns based on a combination of recurring and first-time events. For example, trigger a campaign every time the App Launched event occurs or the Charged event occurs for the first time.
- Supports user-level event log tracking system with the help of the following new APIs:
getUserEventLog(): Retrieves specific event details.getUserEventLogCount(): Retrieves the count of times an event occurred.getUserLastVisitTs(): Retrieves the timestamp of the most recent app visit by a user.getUserAppLaunchCount(): Retrieves the total number of times a user launched the app.getUserEventLogHistory(): Retrieves the complete event history for the current user.
- Adds
inAppNotificationDidShowto theCleverTapInAppNotificationDelegate.
Important API Changes
The following event tracking APIs previously tracked events at the device level, which made it difficult to maintain accurate user-specific event logs, especially in multi-user scenarios. These APIs have now been deprecated in favor of new user-specific APIs. The deprecated methods will be removed in future versions with a prior notice:
eventGetDetail(): UsegetUserEventLog()instead.eventGetFirstTime(): UsegetUserEventLog()instead.eventGetLastTime(): UsegetUserEventLog()instead.eventGetOccurrences(): UsegetUserEventLogCount()instead.userGetPreviousVisitTime(): UsegetUserLastVisitTs()instead.userGetTotalVisits(): UsegetUserAppLaunchCount()instead.userGetEventHistory(): UsegetUserEventLogHistory()instead.
