Methods

Basic Usage

You can add a NotificationReceivedListener and a NotificationOpenedListener which fire when notifications have been received and/or opened:

JAVA

         public class MainActivity extends Activity {
            public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
               CleverPush.getInstance(this).init("CLEVERPUSH_CHANNEL_ID",new NotificationReceivedListener(){
                  @Override
                  public void notificationReceived(NotificationOpenedResult result){
                     System.out.println("Received CleverPush Notification: " +result.getNotification().getTitle());
                  }
               }, new NotificationOpenedListener() {
                  @Override
                  public void notificationOpened(NotificationOpenedResult result) {
                     System.out.println("Opened CleverPush Notification: " + result.getNotification().getTitle());
                  }
               });
            }
         }

KOTLIN

class MainActivity:Activity() {
  fun onCreate(savedInstanceState:Bundle) {
     CleverPush.getInstance(this).init("",
                NotificationReceivedListener { result -> println("ReceivedCleverPushNotification: " + result.notification.title) },
                NotificationOpenedListener { result -> println("Opened CleverPush Notification: " + result.notification.title) })
  }
}

Instead of a NotificationReceivedListener you could also use a NotificationReceivedCallbackListener. This way you can dynamically control if you want to show a notification when the app is running in foreground:

JAVA

CleverPush.getInstance(this).init("XXXXXXX", new NotificationReceivedCallbackListener() {
   @Override
   public boolean notificationReceivedCallback(NotificationOpenedResult notificationOpenedResult) {
         boolean showNotification = true;
         return showNotification;
   }
}, ...);

KOTLIN

CleverPush.getInstance(this).init("XXXXXXX", object:NotificationReceivedCallbackListener() {
  fun notificationReceivedCallback(notificationOpenedResult:NotificationOpenedResult):Boolean {
    val showNotification = true
    return showNotification
  }
}, ...)

You can add a SubscribedListener which fires when the user has successfully been subscribed:

JAVA

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      CleverPush.getInstance(this).init(new NotificationReceivedListener() {
         @Override
         public void notificationReceived(NotificationOpenedResult result) {
            System.out.println("Received CleverPush Notification: " + result.getNotification().getTitle());
        }
     }, new NotificationOpenedListener() {
        @Override
        public void notificationOpened(NotificationOpenedResult result) {
           System.out.println("Opened CleverPush Notification: " + result.getNotification().getTitle());
        }
     }, new SubscribedListener() {
        @Override
        public void subscribed(String subscriptionId) {
           System.out.println("CleverPush Subscription ID: " + subscriptionId);
        }
     });
  }
}

KOTLIN

class MainActivity:Activity() {
  fun onCreate(savedInstanceState:Bundle) {
   CleverPush.getInstance(this).init("",
                { result -> println("ReceivedCleverPushNotification: " + result.notification.title) },
                { result -> println("Opened CleverPush Notification: " + result.notification.title) },
                { subscriptionId -> System.out.println("CleverPush Subscription ID: $subscriptionId"); }
        )
  }
}

Subscribe/Unsubscribe :

JAVA

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      // last parameter (autoRegister) is false
      CleverPush.getInstance(this).init(..., false);
      
      // subscribe
      CleverPush.getInstance(this).subscribe();
      
      // or unsubscribe
      CleverPush.getInstance(this).unsubscribe();
      
      // get subscription status (true or false)
      CleverPush.getInstance(this).isSubscribed();
  }
}

KOTLIN

class MainActivity:Activity() {
  fun onCreate(savedInstanceState:Bundle) {
    // last parameter (autoRegister) is false
    CleverPush.getInstance(this).init(...,false)
    
    // subscribe
    CleverPush.getInstance(this).subscribe()
    // or unsubscribe
    CleverPush.getInstance(this).unsubscribe()
    // get subscription status (true or false)
    CleverPush.getInstance(this).isSubscribed()
  }
}

Tags

JAVA

CleverPush.getInstance(this).getAvailableTags(tags -> {
    // returns Set<ChannelTag>
});

Set<String> subscribedTagIds = CleverPush.getInstance(this).getSubscriptionTags();

// add single tag
CleverPush.getInstance(this).addSubscriptionTag("TAG_ID")

// add multiple tags
CleverPush.getInstance(this).addSubscriptionTags(new String[] {"TAG_ID_1", "TAG_ID_2"});

// remove single tag
CleverPush.getInstance(this).removeSubscriptionTag("TAG_ID")

// remove multiple tags
CleverPush.getInstance(this).removeSubscriptionTags(new String[] {"TAG_ID_1", "TAG_ID_2"});

boolean hasTag = CleverPush.getInstance(this).hasSubscriptionTag(channelTags.get(0).getId());

KOTLIN

CleverPush.getInstance(this).getAvailableTags({ tags-> 
                                               // returns Set<ChannelTag>
                                              })
val subscribedTagIds = CleverPush.getInstance(this).getSubscriptionTags()

// add single tag
CleverPush.getInstance(this).addSubscriptionTag("TAG_ID")

// add multiple tags
CleverPush.getInstance(this).addSubscriptionTags(arrayOf<String>("TAG_ID_1", "TAG_ID_2"))

// remove single tag
CleverPush.getInstance(this).removeSubscriptionTag("TAG_ID")

// remove multiple tags
CleverPush.getInstance(this).removeSubscriptionTags(arrayOf<String>("TAG_ID_1", "TAG_ID_2"))

val hasTag = CleverPush.getInstance(this).hasSubscriptionTag(channelTags.get(0).getId())

Automatic Tag Assignment

The SDK can also automatically assign tags by using the trackPageView method. In simple cases you can just give the method a URL. In the CleverPush backoffice you can then set trigger the tags by matching URL Pathname RegExes. You can optionally also set combinations of min. visits, seconds or sessions for this tag.

Let's say you have created a tag with the URL pathname regex "/sports". This would trigger the tag for a subscriber:

CleverPush.getInstance(this).trackPageView("https://example.com/sports/article-123123");

We can also have more advanced use cases here by using Javascript functions for matching. For example you created a tag with the following function in the CleverPush backend: params.category === "sports". This would then trigger the tag for a subscriber:

CleverPush.getInstance(this).trackPageView("https://example.com/anything", new HashMap<String, String>() {{
   put("category", "sports");
}}););

Once the trackPageView method has been implemented you can set up all the tags dynamically in the CleverPush backend without touching your code.

Attributes

JAVA

CleverPush.getInstance(this).getAvailableAttributes(attributes -> {
    // returns Set<CustomAttribute>
});

Map<String, String> subscriptionAttributes = CleverPush.getInstance(this).getSubscriptionAttributes();

String attributeValue = CleverPush.getInstance(this).getSubscriptionAttribute("user_id");

CleverPush.getInstance(this).setSubscriptionAttribute("user_id", "1");

KOTLIN

CleverPush.getInstance(this).getAvailableAttributes({ attributes-> 
                                                     // returns Set<CustomAttribute>
                                                    })
val subscriptionAttributes = CleverPush.getInstance(this).getSubscriptionAttributes()
val attributeValue = CleverPush.getInstance(this).getSubscriptionAttribute("user_id")
CleverPush.getInstance(this).setSubscriptionAttribute("user_id", "1")

Topics

JAVA

Set<String> subscribedTopicIds = CleverPush.getInstance(this).getSubscriptionTopics();

CleverPush.getInstance(this).setSubscriptionTopics(new String[]{"ID_1", "ID_2"});

// let the user choose his topics
CleverPush.getInstance(this).showTopicsDialog();

KOTLIN

val subscribedTopicIds = CleverPush.getInstance(this).getSubscriptionTopics()
CleverPush.getInstance(this).setSubscriptionTopics(arrayOf<String>("ID_1", "ID_2"))

// let the user choose his topics
CleverPush.getInstance(this).showTopicsDialog()

Here is how the topics dialog looks like:

Topics Dialog Android

Received Notifications

JAVA

Set<Notification> = CleverPush.getInstance(this).getNotifications();

KOTLIN

CleverPush.getInstance(this).getNotifications()

App Banners

(Available from version 1.8.0)

JAVA

// Will be called, once a user presses a button in the banner
CleverPush.getInstance(this).setAppBannerOpenedListener(action -> {
   System.out.println("App Banner Opened");
});

// You can emit custom events and use them as a trigger for your banners
CleverPush.getInstance(this).triggerAppBannerEvent("key", "value");

// You can also show one banner by its ID (we recommend app banner events for production usage)
CleverPush.getInstance(this).showAppBanner("BANNER_ID");

KOTLIN

// Will be called, once a user presses a button in the banner
CleverPush.getInstance(this).setAppBannerOpenedListener({ action-> println("App Banner Opened") })

// You can emit custom events and use them as a trigger for your banners
CleverPush.getInstance(this).triggerAppBannerEvent("key", "value")

// You can also show one banner by its ID (we recommend app banner events for production usage)
CleverPush.getInstance(this).showAppBanner("BANNER_ID")

Event Tracking

Events can be used to trigger follow-up campaigns or to track conversions.

JAVA

CleverPush.getInstance(this).trackEvent("EVENT NAME");

// track a conversion with a specified amount
CleverPush.getInstance(this).trackEvent("EVENT NAME", 37.50f);

KOTLIN

CleverPush.getInstance(this).trackEvent("EVENT NAME")

// track a conversion with a specified amount
CleverPush.getInstance(this).trackEvent("EVENT NAME", 37.50f)

Tracking Consent

You can optionally require a tracking consent from the user (e.g. you get this consent from a CMP). If you tell our SDK to wait for the tracking consent, it will not call any tracking-related features until the consent is available. Calls will be queued and automatically executed until the consent is available.

Step 1: Call this before initializing the SDK:

CleverPush.getInstance(this).setTrackingConsentRequired(true);

Step 2: Call this when the user gave his consent (needs to be called on every launch):

CleverPush.getInstance(this).setTrackingConsent(true);

Chat

Add the ChatView inside your Layout XML:

    <com.cleverpush.chat.ChatView
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        />

Stories

You can also implement CleverPush Stories into your application. For this, please set up a Story Widget in your CleverPush account. You can access stories via generated Widget Id and by following usage guide.
