Show Specific Mode

You can show Instabug with a specific mode and option directly using these APIs. If you're showing a bug reporting mode specifically, the API has two fields, Report Type and Option.

All the possible invocation modes are listed to the right. These modes can be used to show a specific view right away. The possible modes are:

  • Show New Bug Page
  • Show New Feedback Page
  • Show New Chat Page
  • Show Chats List Page

Here are all the possible invocation options used to customize the new bug or feedback experience.

  • Hide email field on new bug/feedback page
  • Show email field on new bug/feedback page but only optionally
  • Require user to fill comment field before submitting new feedback or bug

You can pass any number of invocation options in a single method call. If no invocation option is passed, the email field will automatically be shown and set to required and the comment field will be set to optional.
