SDKs

Batch's SDKs bring our features to your app in a developer-friendly API.

What is an SDK?

"SDK" stands for Software Development Kit.

An SDK is a set of tools developers can use to create apps for a specific platform or to add features to their apps without having to redevelop them from scratch. Apps usually integrate a wide variety of third-party analytics and marketing SDKs.

Here is a non-exhaustive list of the purposes the SDK serves:

• Analytics: registers new installs, sends app usage data and feedback on push and In-App interactions (e.g. push displayed, opened, In-App message dismissed, etc).

• Data collection: collects and sends Profile data (attributes, events) to Batch servers to improve your segmentation and personalization.

• Push notifications: collects and sends the push token to Batch servers, required to deliver a push to your users' devices. On Android, the receiver included in the SDK is in charge of receiving and displaying the notifications.

• In-App messaging: pulls the list of In-app campaigns matching your users' install from Batch servers and displays the In-app messages.

• Inbox: Provides the history of push notifications sent to the install or the user ID attached to the install. This is useful if you want to add a notification centre to your app.
