Setting Custom Data
Discussed here is how to set user attributes and tags, as well as log user events, and their relevant APIs.
User Attributes
You can assign custom attributes to your users and they will show up on your Instabug dashboard with each report. These attributes can later be used to filter reports in your dashboard.
To add a new user attribute, use the following method.
Instabug.setUserAttribute("True", withKey: "Logged in")
Instabug.setUserAttribute("False", withKey: "Completed IAP")
[Instabug setUserAttribute:@"True" withKey:@"Logged in"];
[Instabug setUserAttribute:@"18" withKey:@"Age"];
You can also retrieve or remove the current value of a certain user attribute.
let loggedIn = Instabug.userAttribute(forKey: "Logged in")
Instabug.removeUserAttribute(forKey: "Logged in")
NSString *loggedIn = [Instabug userAttributeForKey:@"Logged in"];
[Instabug removeUserAttributeForKey:@"Logged in"];
Or retrieve all user attributes.
let allUserAttributes = Instabug.userAttributes()
NSDictionary *allUserAttributes = [Instabug userAttributes];
User Events
You can log custom user events throughout your application. Custom events are automatically included with each report.
Instabug.logUserEvent(withName: "Skipped Walkthrough")
[Instabug logUserEventWithName:@"Skipped Walkthrough"];
Tags
You can add custom tags to your bug and crash reports. These tags can later be used to filter reports or set custom rules from your dashboard.
The example below demonstrates how to add tags to a report.
Instabug.appendTags(["Design", "Flow"])
[Instabug appendTags:@[@"Design", @"Flow"]];
Adding tags before sending reports
Sometimes it's useful to be able to add a tag to a bug report before it's been sent. In these cases, the perfect solution would be use the event handlers of the bug reporting class. You can find more details here.
You can also get all the currently set tags as follows.
let tags = Instabug.getTags()
NSString *tags = [Instabug getTags];
Last, you can reset all the tags.
Instabug.resetTags()
[Instabug resetTags];
Managing Tags
If you'd like to remove a particular tag from your dashboard to prevent it from appearing again when entering a new tag manually, you can do so by navigating to the tags page under the settings options and remove the tag. You can also edit and rename the tag.
