Initializing the AppFlags SDK​

We suggest initializing the AppFlags SDK in the onCreate of your Application class or your MainActivity so that the SDK initializes as early as possible.

Client initialization​

Initialize AppFlagsClient as shown below:

override fun onCreate() {
    super.onCreate()

    val user = AppFlagsUser("userKey")
    AppFlagsClient.init(applicationContext, "YOUR_CLIENT_KEY", user)
}

User identification​

The Android SDK requires an AppFlagsUser object to identify the user. This contains a userKey which is a unique string that identifies the user and does not change between sessions.

You can update the SDK with a new user if the user changes during the application lifecycle.
