Automatic data collection

By default, the Batch SDK will automatically collect some data related to the user's device:

Native data	Description	Default collection status
Device Model	The user's device model information	false
Installation ID	The installation identifier	true
Session ID	The user's session identifier	true
Custom User ID	The user's custom identifier	true
API Level	The Batch SDK api level	true
Messaging API Level	The Batch SDK Messaging api level	true
Device Language	The user's device language	true
Device Region	The user's device region	true
Device Timezone	The user's device timezone	true
OS Version	The user's device iOS version	true
App Version (String)	The application version (string)	true
App Version (Build Number)	The application version (number)	true
Bundle Name	The application bundle identifier	true
Device Date	The current device date	true
Device Installation Date	The Batch installation date	true
Bridge Version	Version of the batch bridge (for cross-platform plugin only)	true
Plugin Version	Version of the batch plugin (for cross-platform plugin only)	true
GeoIP	Whether Batch should resolve the user's location from ip address	false

Some of this data are disabled by default and can be toggled on/off according to the user consent:

• Device model

• GeoIP

Use the following API to fine-tune what you want to enable:

Swift

BatchSDK.updateAutomaticDataCollection { config in
    // Enable GeoIP resolution on server side
    config.setGeoIPEnabled(true)
    // Enable automatic collection of the device model information
    config.setDeviceModelEnabled(true)
}

Objective-C

[BatchSDK updateAutomaticDataCollection:^(BatchDataCollectionConfig * _Nonnull config) {
  // Enable GeoIP resolution on server side
  [config setGeoIPEnabled:true];
  // Enable automatic collection of the device model information
  [config setDeviceModelEnabled:true];
}];

This API can be used at any time in your application lifecycle and Batch will remember these values, even if your Application reboots.
