Profile data migration

To make it easier to collect data to a Profile, Batch has added two automatic ways to migrate old installation's data on a Profile:

• User will be automatically identified (logged-in) if he had a Batch custom_user_id set on the local storage.

• User natives (language/region) and custom data will be automatically migrated to a Profile.

These migrations are triggered when your application on the dashboard is attached to a Project. Concretely this mean that there's two possible scenarios:

• Your app is running on the plugin v1 and is already attached to a Project : migrations will be triggered on the first start running on plugin v2.

• Your app is running on the plugin v2 but not attached to a Project: migrations will be triggered on the first start after your app is attached to a project.

These migrations are enabled by default, but you may want to disable them, to do so add the following :

Android

You can programmatically update the plugin configuration from your Application subclass in the native android directory by using:

Kotlin

// Whether Batch should automatically identify user when running the plugin v2 for the first time.
// This mean user with a custom_user_id will be automatically attached a to a Profile and could be targeted within a Project scope.
BatchFlutterPlugin.getConfiguration(this).isProfileCustomIdMigrationEnabled = false

// Whether Batch should automatically attach current installation's data (language/region/customDataAttributes...)
// to the User's Profile when running the plugin v2 for the first time.
BatchFlutterPlugin.getConfiguration(this).isProfileCustomDataMigrationEnabled = false

Java

Remember to make modifications before calling the setup method since all configuration changes made after will not be applied.

Or add the following meta-data tags to your AndroidManifest.xml:

AndroidManifest.xml

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <application android:name=".MainApplication"...>

        <!-- Whether Batch should automatically identify user when running the plugin v2 for the first time.-->
        <!-- This mean user with a custom_user_id will be automatically attached a to a Profile and could be targeted within a Project scope.-->
        <meta-data android:name="com.batch.flutter.profile_custom_id_migration_enabled" android:value="false"/>

        <!-- Whether Batch should automatically attach current installation's data (language/region/customDataAttributes...)-->
        <!-- to the User's Profile when running the plugin v2 for the first time.-->
        <meta-data android:name="com.batch.flutter.profile_custom_data_migration_enabled" android:value="false"/>
        ...
    </application>
</manifest>

iOS

You can programmatically update the plugin configuration from your AppDelegate class in the native ios directory by using :

// Whether Batch should automatically identify user when running the plugin v2 for the first time.
// This mean user with a custom_user_id will be automatically attached a to a Profile and could be targeted within a Project scope.
BatchFlutterPlugin.configuration.profileCustomIdMigrationEnabled = false

// Whether Batch should automatically attach current installation's data (language/region/customDataAttributes...)
// to the User's Profile when running the plugin v2 for the first time.
BatchFlutterPlugin.configuration.profileCustomDataMigrationEnabled = false

Remember to make modifications before calling the setup method since all configuration changes made after will not be applied.

Or add the following entries to your Info.plist :

Info.plist

<plist version="1.0">
  <dict>
    ...
    <!-- Whether Batch should automatically identify user when running the plugin v2 for the first time.-->
    <!-- This mean user with a custom_user_id will be automatically attached a to a Profile and could be targeted within a Project scope.-->
    <key>BatchFlutterProfileCustomIdMigrationEnabled</key>
    <false/>
    <!-- Whether Batch should automatically attach current installation's data (language/region/customDataAttributes...)-->
    <!-- to the User's Profile when running the plugin v2 for the first time.-->
    <key>BatchFlutterProfileCustomDataMigrationEnabled</key>
    <false/>
  </dict>
</plist>
