Analytics

The SDK provides an interface that you can implement and that will be used by the SDK to send events. The interface is simply the one below:

interface Tracer {
   fun trace(trace: Trace)
}

Trace is the object passed to your implementation and you can use it with any of your analytics tools or any custom tracing mechanism. Make sure to avoid blocking calls if you push the information of the trace object to any external system.

The Trace object has the following properties:

PropertyTypeOptionalDefaultDescription

sessionId

String

No

None

Session id (UUID v4) created by the SDK or passed by your application

category

TraceCategory

No

None

statusMessage

String

Yes

null

TraceCategory has the following properties:

PropertyTypeDescription

TraceStatusCode has the following properties:

Note: Please be aware that all codes with event IN_PROGRESS, except for SCAN_DOCUMENT_FRONT_PROCESSED and SCAN_DOCUMENT_BACK_PROCESSED, are throttled (limited to one identical event every 5 seconds). This is to ensure that your client is not overwhelmed and to accommodate varying speeds of different phones, which may send different numbers of events.

To enable the tracing mechanism pass your implementation to the init method:

class App: Application() {

	override fun onCreate() {
    	    super.onCreate()
    	    UqudoSDK.init(applicationContext, TracerObject)
  	}

  	private object TracerObject : Tracer {
          override fun trace(trace: Trace) {
              Logger.d("---Analytics", trace.toString())
          }
      }

}

Below you can find an example of the tracing above for a full enrollment flow with some errors in between to showcase the events:

Below you can find an example on how to use the trace information with Firebase Analytics:

class App: Application() {

  private lateinit var firebaseAnalytics: FirebaseAnalytics

  override fun onCreate() {
    super.onCreate()

    firebaseAnalytics = Firebase.analytics
    UqudoSDK.init(applicationContext, TracerObject(firebaseAnalytics))
  }

  private class TracerObject constructor(private val firebaseAnalytics: FirebaseAnalytics) : Tracer {
    override fun trace(trace: Trace) {
       firebaseAnalytics.logEvent(trace.category.name) {
           param("sessionId", trace.sessionId)
           param("event", trace.event.name)
           param("status", trace.status.name)
           param("timestamp", trace.timestamp.toString())
           trace.page?.let { param("page", it.name) }
           trace.statusCode?.let { param("statusCode", it.name) }
           trace.documentType?.let { param("documentType", it.name) }
           trace.statusMessage?.let { param("statusMessage", it) }
       }

       if(trace.event == TraceEvent.VIEW) {
           firebaseAnalytics.logEvent(FirebaseAnalytics.Event.SCREEN_VIEW) {
               param(FirebaseAnalytics.Param.SCREEN_NAME, trace.page?.name!!)
               param(FirebaseAnalytics.Param.SCREEN_CLASS, trace.page?.name!!)
           }

       }
    }
  }
