Version 7 of the Embrace Android SDK contains the following breaking changes:
- The
startMoment/endMoment
API has been removed. UsestartSpan/recordSpan
instead. Embrace.AppFramework
is now its own top level class,AppFramework
Embrace.LastRunEndState
is now its own top level class,LastRunEndState
- Several public APIs are now implemented in Kotlin rather than Java. Generally this will not affect backwards
compatibility but the following may have slight changes to their signatures:
EmbraceNetworkRequest
Java overloads replaced with default parameters
- View taps do not capture coordinates by default. Set
sdk_config.taps.capture_coordinates
totrue
in yourembrace-config.json
to enable this feature - Several internally used classes and symbols have been hidden from the public API
- Recording a custom trace ID for an HTTP request from a custom request header is no longer supported. IDs in the
x-emb-trace-id
header will still be recorded and displayed on the dashboard. - Methods to add and remove the
payer
Persona has been removed.- Use the generic Persona API methods with the name
payer
to get the equivalent functionality.
- Use the generic Persona API methods with the name
- The
setAppId
API has been removed. Changing theappId
at runtime is no longer supported. - Removed several obsolete remote config + local config properties. If you specify the below in your
embrace-config.json
they will be ignored:sdk_config.beta_features_enabled
sdk_config.anr.capture_google
sdk_config.background_activity.manual_background_activity_limit
sdk_config.background_activity.min_background_activity_duration
sdk_config.background_activity.max_cached_activities
sdk_config.base_urls.images
sdk_config.networking.trace_id_header
sdk_config.startup_moment.automatically_end
- Removed the following properties from the Embrace Gradle plugin, that can be removed if they remain in your buildscripts:
customSymbolsDirectory
jarSkipList
encodeExtractedFileNames
- Embrace no longer attempts to detect other signal handlers & reinstall itself by default. If you notice changes in your NDK crash report quality you can re-enable this behavior by setting
sdk_config.sig_handler_detection
totrue
in yourembrace-config.json

Version 6 of the Embrace Android SDK renames some functions. This has been done to reduce confusion & increase consistency across our SDKs.
Functions that have been marked as deprecated will still work as before, but will be removed in the next major version release. Please upgrade when convenient, and get in touch if you have a use-case that isn’t supported by the new API.
