SDK v5 migration guide

Before you begin

Here's what you need to do before updating to SDK v5:

  1. The minimum supported API versions for SDK v5 have been updated. If your app targets a lower version, you need to update it first.

    • iOS: 12.0
    • Android: 21

Install the SDK

To start using SDK v5, you need to add it as a dependency in your project. To do this:

  1. Download the SDK archive from GitHub

  2. Copy the C++ files from the dist directory and add them to your Cocos2d-x project

  3. (Android only): add the paths of the C++ files to the LOCAL_SRC_FILES section of your Android.mk file.

    $(LOCAL_PATH)/../../../Classes/Adjust/AdjustConfig2dx.cpp \
    $(LOCAL_PATH)/../../../Classes/Adjust/AdjustAttribution2dx.cpp \

SDK v5 uses the SDK signature library to encrypt information sent from the Adjust SDK to Adjust's servers. You MUST add the signature library to your project to use SDK v5.

Android apps

  1. Download the latest adjust-android-signature.aar from the Adjust Signature library GitHub repository.
  2. Add the .aar to your Android Studio project.

iOS apps

  1. Download the latest AdjustSigSdk-iOS-Static.a from the Adjust Signature library GitHub repository.
  2. Link the .a in your Xcode project.

Update your app's privacy manifest (iOS only)

To inform the App Store of the Adjust SDK's privacy requirements, you need to merge your privacy manifest with Adjust's privacy manifests.

  1. Add the Adjust SDK privacy manifest properties to your app's privacy manifest.
  2. Add the Signature library privacy manifest properties to your app's privacy manifest.

Update the initialization method

v5で変更

In SDK v4, the initialization method is Adjust2dx::start(adjustConfig). This has been changed to Adjust2dx::initSdk(adjustConfig).

#include "Adjust/Adjust2dx.h"


std::string appToken = "YourAppToken";
std::string environment = AdjustEnvironmentSandbox2dx;


AdjustConfig2dx adjustConfig = AdjustConfig2dx(appToken, environment);
 Adjust2dx::start(adjustConfig);
 Adjust2dx::initSdk(adjustConfig);

Changed APIs

v5で変更

The following APIs have been changed in SDK v5.

Disable and enable the SDK

In SDK v4, you can enable and disable the SDK by calling Adjust2dx::setEnabled with a bool value.

Adjust2dx::setEnabled(false); // disable SDK
Adjust2dx::setEnabled(true); // enable SDK

In SDK v5, this feature is split into separate commands for clarity.

  • Call Adjust2dx::disable() to disable the SDK.
  • Call Adjust2dx::enable() to enable the SDK.
Adjust2dx::disable();
Adjust2dx::enable();

Send information in background

In SDK v4, you can set the sendInBackground property on your adjustConfig instance to true to enable the SDK to send information to Adjust while your app is running in the background.

adjustConfig.sendInBackground(true);

In SDK v5, you need to call the enableSendingInBackground method of your adjustConfig instance to enable the SDK to send information to Adjust while your app is running in the background.

adjustConfig.enableSendingInBackground();

Preinstalled app measurement

In SDK v4, you can call the setPreinstallTrackingEnabled method of your adjustConfig instance with a true argument to enable measuring preinstalled apps.

adjustConfig.setPreinstallTrackingEnabled(true);

In SDK v5, you need to call the enablePreinstallTracking method of your adjustConfig instance to enable measuring preinstalled apps.

adjustConfig.enablePreinstallTracking();

Disable AdServices information reading

In SDK v4, you can call the setAllowAdServicesInfoReading method on your adjustConfig with the value false to prevent the Adjust SDK from reading AdServices information.

adjustConfig.setAllowAdServicesInfoReading(false);

In SDK v5, you need to call the disableAdServices method on your adjustConfig instance to prevent the Adjust SDK from reading AdServices information. The default state is true.

adjustConfig.disableAdServices();

Disable IDFA reading

In SDK v4, you can call the setAllowIdfaReading method on your adjustConfig with the value false to prevent the Adjust SDK from reading the device's IDFA.

adjustConfig.setAllowIdfaReading(false);

In SDK v5, you need to call the disableIdfaReading method on your adjustConfig instance to prevent the Adjust SDK from reading the device's IDFA. The default state is true.

adjustConfig.disableIdfaReading();

Enable cost data in attribution

In SDK v4, you can call the setNeedsCost method on your adjustConfig instance with the value true to enable cost data in the device's attribution information.

adjustConfig.setNeedsCost(true);

In SDK v5, you need to call the enableCostDataInAttribution method on your adjustConfig instance to enable cost data in the device's attribution information. The default state is false.

adjustConfig.enableCostDataInAttribution();

Enable LinkMe

In SDK v4, you can call the setLinkMeEnabled method on your adjustConfig instance with the value true to enable Adjust LinkMe.

adjustConfig.setLinkMeEnabled(true);

In SDK v5, you need to call the enableLinkMe method on your adjustConfig instance to enable Adjust LinkMe. The default state is false.

adjustConfig.enableLinkMe();

Only read device IDs once

In SDK v4, you can call the setReadDeviceInfoOnceEnabled method on your adjustConfig with the value true to instruct the SDK to only read device IDs once.

adjustConfig.setReadDeviceInfoOnceEnabled(true);

In SDK v5, you need to call the enableDeviceIdsReadingOnce method on your adjustConfig to instruct the SDK to only read device IDs once. The default state is false.

adjustConfig.enableDeviceIdsReadingOnce();

Offline mode

In SDK v4, you can enable and disable offline mode the SDK by calling Adjust2dx::setOfflineMode with a bool argument.

Adjust2dx::setOfflineMode(true);
Adjust2dx::setOfflineMode(false);

In SDK v5, this feature is split into separate commands for clarity.

  • Call Adjust2dx::switchToOfflineMode to set the SDK to offline mode.
  • Call Adjust2dx::switchBackToOnlineMode to set the SDK back to online mode.
Adjust2dx::switchToOfflineMode(); // Put the SDK in offline mode
Adjust2dx::switchBackToOnlineMode(); // Put the SDK back in online mode

Session callback parameters

In SDK v4, you can add session callback parameters by passing a key-value pair to the Adjust2dx::addSessionCallbackParameter method and remove individual parameters using the Adjust2dx::removeSessionCallbackParameter method.

Adjust2dx::addSessionCallbackParameter("key", "value");
Adjust2dx::removeSessionCallbackParameter("key");
Adjust2dx::resetSessionCallbackParameters();

In SDK v5, session callback parameters are renamed to global parameters.

Adjust2dx::addGlobalCallbackParameter("key", "value");
Adjust2dx::removeGlobalCallbackParameter("key");
Adjust2dx::removeGlobalCallbackParameters();

Session partner parameters

In SDK v4, you can add session partner parameters by passing a key-value pair to the Adjust2dx::addSessionPartnerParameter method and remove individual parameters using the Adjust2dx::removeSessionPartnerParameter method.

Adjust2dx::addSessionPartnerParameter("key", "value");
Adjust2dx::removeSessionPartnerParameter("key");
Adjust2dx::resetSessionPartnerParameters();

In SDK v5, session partner parameters are renamed to global partner parameters.

Adjust2dx::addGlobalPartnerParameter("key", "value");
Adjust2dx::removeGlobalPartnerParameter("key");
Adjust2dx::removeGlobalPartnerParameters();

Event deduplication

In SDK v4, event deduplication is coupled with the event transaction ID and is limited to a maximum of 10 unique IDs.

adjustEvent.setTransactionId("transaction-id");

In SDK v5, the feature is decoupled from transaction ID. A new ID field called deduplicationId has been added for event deduplication.

adjustEvent.setDeduplicationId("deduplication-id");

You can set a custom limit on the number of deduplicationId that can be added to the list for identifying duplicate events. By default, the limit is set to 10.

AdjustConfig2dx adjustConfig = AdjustConfig2dx("appToken", AdjustEnvironmentSandbox2dx);
adjustConfig.setEventDeduplicationIdsMaxSize(20);
Adjust2dx::initSdk(adjustConfig);

App Store Subscriptions

In SDK v4, you can set a new subscription by configuring an AdjustAppStoreSubscription2dx object. This object is initialized with four arguments: price, currency, transactionId, and receipt.

AdjustAppStoreSubscription2dx subscription = AdjustAppStoreSubscription2dx(price, currency, transactionId, receipt);

In SDK v5, you don't need to pass the receipt argument as it's no longer needed for purchase verification.

AdjustAppStoreSubscription2dx subscription = AdjustAppStoreSubscription2dx(price, currency, transactionId);

In SDK v4, you can pass your deep link information to the Adjust2dx::appWillOpenUrl method.

Adjust2dx::appWillOpenUrl("url");

In SDK v5, this has been renamed to Adjust2dx::processDeeplink for clarity. A new AdjustDeeplink2dx class has been added for constructing deep links. To process a deep link, instantiate an AdjustDeeplink2dx object with your deep link URL and pass it to the Adjust2dx::processDeeplink method.

AdjustDeeplink2dx deeplink = AdjustDeeplink2dx("url");
Adjust2dx::processDeeplink(deeplink);

In SDK v4, you can resolve a shortened deep link by passing the url to the Adjust2dx::processDeeplink method.

Adjust2dx::processDeeplink("url", [](std::string resolvedLink) {
    std::cout << "Resolved link: " << resolvedLink;
});

In SDK v5, you need to send an AdjustDeeplink2dx object initialized with the deep link url. This returns the original unshortened deep link.

AdjustDeeplink2dx deeplink = AdjustDeeplink2dx("url");
Adjust2dx::processDeeplink(deeplink, [](std::string resolvedLink) {
    std::cout << "Resolved link: " << resolvedLink;
});

COPPA compliance

In SDK v4, you can call the coppaCompliantEnabled method on your adjustConfig instance with the value true to enable COPPA compliance.

adjustConfig.setCoppaCompliantEnabled(true);

In SDK v5, you need to call the enableCoppaCompliance method on your adjustConfig instance to enable COPPA compliance. The default state is false.

adjustConfig.enableCoppaCompliance();

Play Store Kids Apps

In SDK v4, you can mark an app as a Play Store Kids app by calling the setPlayStoreKidsAppEnabled method on your adjustConfig instance with the value true. This is read during SDK initialization, which means that the value can't be updated once the SDK is initialized.

adjustConfig.setPlayStoreKidsAppEnabled(true);

In SDK v5, you need to call the enablePlayStoreKidsCompliance method of your adjustConfig instance to enable compliance. The default state is false.

adjustConfig.enablePlayStoreKidsCompliance();

Set data residency and URL strategy

In SDK v4, URL strategy and data residency domains are defined as constants in the AdjustConfig class.

adjustConfig.setUrlStrategy(AdjustDataResidencyEU);

In SDK v5, you need to pass your chosen domain or domains as an array. You need to also set the following:

  • useSubdomains (bool): Whether the domain should be treated as an Adjust domain. If true, the SDK will prefix the domains with Adjust-specific subdomains. If false, the SDK will use the provided domain as-is, without adding any prefixes.
  • isDataResidency (bool): Whether the domain should be used for data residency.
adjustConfig.setUrlStrategy({"eu.adjust.com"}, true, true);

Check the table below to see how to configure your URL strategy in SDK v5.

v4v5 - main and fallback domainv5 - use sub domainsv5 - is Data Residency
AdjustDataResidencyEU"eu.adjust.com"truetrue
AdjustDataResidencyTR"tr.adjust.com"truetrue
AdjustDataResidencyUS"us.adjust.com"truetrue
AdjustUrlStrategyChina"adjust.world", "adjust.com"truefalse
AdjustUrlStrategyCn"adjust.cn", "adjust.com"truefalse
AdjustUrlStrategyCnOnly"adjust.cn"truefalse
AdjustUrlStrategyIndia"adjust.net.in", "adjust.com"truefalse

Examples 

// India URL strategy
adjustConfig.setUrlStrategy({"adjust.net.in", "adjust.com"}, true, false);


// China URL strategy
adjustConfig.setUrlStrategy({"adjust.world", "adjust.com"}, true, false);


// China only URL strategy
adjustConfig.setUrlStrategy({"adjust.cn"}, true, false);


// EU URL strategy
adjustConfig.setUrlStrategy({"eu.adjust.com"}, true, true);


// Turkey URL strategy
adjustConfig.setUrlStrategy({"tr.adjust.com"}, true, true);


// US URL strategy
adjustConfig.setUrlStrategy({"us.adjust.com"}, true, true);

Record ad revenue

In SDK v4, you can record ad revenue by instantiating an AdjustAdRevenue2dx object with an ad revenue source constant.

AdjustAdRevenue2dx adRevenue = AdjustAdRevenue2dx(AdjustAdRevenueSourceAppLovinMAX);

In SDK v5, you need to instantiate an AdjustAdRevenue object with a string source.

AdjustAdRevenue2dx adRevenue = AdjustAdRevenue2dx("applovin_max_sdk")
v4v5
AdjustAdRevenueSourceAppLovinMAX"applovin_max_sdk"
AdjustAdRevenueSourceAdMob"admob_sdk"
AdjustAdRevenueSourceIronSource"ironsource_sdk"
AdjustAdRevenueSourceAdMostSource"admost_sdk"
AdjustAdRevenueSourceUnity"unity_sdk"
AdjustAdRevenueSourceHeliumChartboost"helium_chartboost_sdk"
AdjustAdRevenueSourceAdx"adx_sdk"
AdjustAdRevenueSourcePublisher"publisher_sdk"
AdjustAdRevenueSourceTopOn"topon_sdk"
AdjustAdRevenueSourceMopubNo longer supported

Disable SKAdNetwork communication

In SDK v4, you can prevent the SDK from communicating with SKAdNetwork by calling the adjustConfig.deactivateSKAdNetworkHandling method.

adjustConfig.deactivateSKAdNetworkHandling();

In SDK v5, you need to call the disableSkanAttribution method on your adjustConfig instance to disable SKAdNetwork communication. The default state is true.

adjustConfig.disableSkanAttribution();

Listen for conversion value updates

In SDK v4, you can call the setPostbackConversionValueUpdatedCallback method on your adjustConfig to listen for conversion value updates. Before SKAN4, you could use the setConversionValueUpdatedCallback method.

// pre-SKAN4 callback
adjustConfig.setConversionValueUpdatedCallback([](int conversionValue) {
    std::cout << "\nConversion value: " << conversionValue;
});
// SKAN4 callback
adjustConfig.setPostbackConversionValueUpdatedCallback([](
        int conversionValue,
        std::string coarseValue,
        bool lockWindow) {
    std::cout << "\nConversion value: " << conversionValue;
    std::cout << "\nCoarse value: " << coarseValue;
    std::cout << "\nLock window: " << lockWindow;
});

In SDK v5, you need to assign a callback function to the setSkanUpdatedCallback method of your adjustConfig object.

adjustConfig.setSkanUpdatedCallback([](
    std::unordered_map<std::string, std::string> data) {
    std::cout << "\nConversion value: " << data["conversionValue"];
    std::cout << "\nCoarse value: " << data["coarseValue"];
    std::cout << "\nLock window: " << data["lockWindow"];
    std::cout << "\nError: " << data["error"];
});

Update conversion values

In SDK v4, you can use one of these methods to send updated conversion values to Adjust:

// pass just the conversion value (deprecated method)
Adjust2dx::updateConversionValue(6);


// pass the conversion value and a callback to receive a message about potential error
Adjust2dx::updatePostbackConversionValue(6, [](std::string error) {
    std::cout << "Error while updating conversion value: " << error;
});


// SKAN 4.0
// pass the conversion value, coarse value and a callback to receive a message about potential error
Adjust2dx::updatePostbackConversionValue(6, "low", [](std::string error) {
    std::cout << "Error while updating conversion value: " << error;
});


// SKAN 4.0
// pass the conversion value, coarse value, lock window and a callback to receive a message about potential error
Adjust2dx::updatePostbackConversionValue(6, "low", false, [](std::string error) {
    std::cout << "Error while updating conversion value: " << error;
});

To update conversion values in SDK v5, use the updateSkanConversionValue method with the following arguments:

  • conversionValue (int): The updated conversion value
  • coarseValue (std::string): The updated coarse conversion value
  • lockWindow (bool): Whether to send the postback before the conversion window ends
Adjust2dx::updateSkanConversionValue(6, "low", true, [](std::string error) {
    std::cout << "Error while updating conversion value: " << error;
});

App Tracking Transparency authorization wrapper

In SDK v4, you can handle changes to a user's ATT authorization status using the Adjust2dx::requestTrackingAuthorizationWithCompletionHandler method.

Adjust2dx::requestTrackingAuthorizationWithCompletionHandler([] (int status) {
    switch (status) {
        case 0:
            // ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatusNotDetermined case
            break;
        case 1:
            // ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatusRestricted case
            break;
        case 2:
            // ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatusDenied case
            break;
        case 3:
            // ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatusAuthorized case
            break;
    }
});

This has been renamed to Adjust2dx::requestAppTrackingAuthorization in SDK v5 for clarity.

Adjust2dx::requestAppTrackingAuthorization([] (int status) {
    switch (status) {
        case 0:
            // ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatusNotDetermined case
            break;
        case 1:
            // ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatusRestricted case
            break;
        case 2:
            // ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatusDenied case
            break;
        case 3:
            // ATTrackingManagerAuthorizationStatusAuthorized case
            break;
    }
});

Get device information

In SDK v4, all device information getter methods run synchronously. In SDK v5, these methods have been changed to run asynchronously. You can add a callback function to handle the information when the asynchronous process completes

// IDFA getter
Adjust2dx::getIdfa([](std::string idfa) {
    std::cout << "\nIDFA = " << idfa;
});


// IDFV getter
Adjust2dx::getIdfv([](std::string idfv) {
    std::cout << "\nIDFV = " << idfa;
});


// ADID getter
Adjust2dx::getAdid([](std::string adid) {
    std::cout << "\nAdjust ID = " << adid;
});


// Attribution getter
Adjust2dx::getAttribution([](AdjustAttribution2dx attribution) {
   // process attribution
});


// Enabled status getter
Adjust2dx::isEnabled([](bool isEnabled) {
   // process isEnabled
});


// SDK version getter
Adjust2dx::getSdkVersion([](std::string sdkVersion) {
    std::cout << "\nSDK version = " << sdkVersion;
});


// Last deep link getter
Adjust2dx::getLastDeeplink([](std::string lastDeeplink) {
    std::cout << "\nLast deeplink = " << lastDeeplink;
});

Removed APIs

v5で削除

The following APIs have been removed in SDK v5.

Event buffering

SDK v4 supports event buffering. This feature stores requests event, ad revenue, push tokens, and other information on a local buffer to send at a later date.

adjustConfig.setEventBufferingEnabled(true);

This setting has been removed in SDK v5.

Custom user agent string

SDK v4 supports setting a custom User Agent by calling adjustConfig.setUserAgent with a user agent string.

adjustConfig.setUserAgent("custom-user-agent");

This setting has been removed in SDK v5.

Set whether a device is known

In SDK v4, you can call the adjustConfig.setDeviceKnown method to manually inform the SDK whether a device is known.

adjustConfig.setDeviceKnown(true);

This setting has been removed in SDK v5.

Delay SDK start

SDK v4 supports delaying the start of the SDK by calling adjustConfig.setDelayStart with up to 10 seconds of delay.

adjustConfig.setDelayStart(10);

This method has been removed in SDK v5. The Adjust2dx::sendFirstPackages() method that interrupts this delay has also been removed.

Disable third party sharing globally

In SDK v4, you can call the Adjust2dx::disableThirdPartySharing method to globally disable sharing information with third parties globally.

Adjust2dx::disableThirdPartySharing();

This feature has been removed from SDK v5. In SDK v5, use the Adjust2dx::trackThirdPartySharing method to enable or disable third party sharing.

AdjustThirdPartySharing2dx thirdPartySharing = AdjustThirdPartySharing2dx(false);
Adjust2dx::trackThirdPartySharing(thirdPartySharing);
