Getting Started

To get started, here is the link to Android SDK integration documentation.

Upgrade

SDK 2.x:

Please note that updating from our 2.x SDK is not a drag and drop update, but rather includes breaking API and process changes. In order to take advantage of the 3.x SDK, a complete re-integration is necessary. Please review our documentation to get a better idea on what changes will be necessary in your app.

SDK 3.x:

Updating from our previous SDK 3.x to SDK 3.2.1 requires the following addition to your proguard configuration:

-keepclassmembers class com.adcolony.sdk.ADCNative** {
    *;
 }

Partners using Instant-Feed should note the change to our callbacks here.

Update the AdColony library referenced by your project following the steps below:

Manual

• Drag and drop the adcolony.jar into your project.
• Drag and drop the native libraries your application supports into your project.

Via Gradle

Assuming our maven repo is added to your project (see our project setup guide), update your 'dependencies' configuration within your module's build.gradle to point to the latest version:

dependencies {
  /** 
   * Any other dependencies your module has are placed in this dependency configuration
   */
  compile 'com.adcolony:sdk:3.2.1'
}
