Drift

Drift is the official Drift SDK for Android

Features:

• Create conversations from your app
• View past conversations from your app.

Getting Setup

Installation

Drift uses Jitpack for its releases

Add Jitpack to your root build.gradle file

allprojects {
	repositories {	
		maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
	}
}

You can then add drift as a dependency in your app build.gradle file

dependencies {
	compile 'com.github.driftt:drift-sdk-android:v1.0.7'
}

Registering

To get started with the Drift SDK you need the embed ID from your Drift settings page. This can be accessed here by looking after the drift.load method in the Javascript SDK.

In your Application onCreate method call:

Drift.setupDrift(this, "");

Once your user has successfully logged into the app registering a user with the device is done by calling register user with a unique identifier, typically the id from your database, and their email address:

Drift.registerUser("123748", "[email protected]");

When your user logs out simply call logout so they stop receiving messages.

Drift.logout();

Messaging

A user can begin a conversation in response to a campaign or by presenting the conversations list

  Drift.showConversationActivity();

Thats it. Your good to go!!

Customisation

Configuring the colors used within the app can be done here

To configure the accent color used in the SDK you should define a color attribute in your apps color resource file.

<color name="driftColorAccent">#157AFB</color>
