Crashlytics Framework Reference


                    
                    
                    delegate

The delegate can be used to influence decisions on reporting and behavior, as well as reacting to previous crashes.

Make certain that the delegate is setup before starting Crashlytics with startWithAPIKey:… or via +[Fabric with:…]. Failure to do will result in missing any delegate callbacks that occur synchronously during start.

Declaration

Swift

unowned(unsafe) var delegate: AnyObject? { get set }

Objective-C

@property (assign, readwrite, nonatomic, nullable) id delegate;


                    
                    
                    +startWithAPIKey:

The recommended way to install Crashlytics into your application is to place a call to +startWithAPIKey: in your -application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: or -applicationDidFinishLaunching: method.

Note: Starting with 3.0, the submission process has been significantly improved. The delay parameter is no longer required to throttle submissions on launch, performance will be great without it.

Declaration

Swift

class func start(withAPIKey apiKey: String) -> Crashlytics

Objective-C

+ (nonnull Crashlytics *)startWithAPIKey:(nonnull NSString *)apiKey;

Parameters


                                apiKey

The Crashlytics API Key for this app

Return Value

The singleton Crashlytics instance


                    
                    
                    +startWithAPIKey:delegate:

If you need the functionality provided by the CrashlyticsDelegate protocol, you can use these convenience methods to activate the framework and set the delegate in one call.

Declaration

Swift

class func start(withAPIKey apiKey: String, delegate: Any?) -> Crashlytics

Objective-C

+ (nonnull Crashlytics *)startWithAPIKey:(nonnull NSString *)apiKey

Parameters

`apiKey`	The Crashlytics API Key for this app
`delegate`	A delegate object which conforms to CrashlyticsDelegate.

Return Value

The singleton Crashlytics instance


                    
                    
                    +sharedInstance

Access the singleton Crashlytics instance.

Declaration

Swift

class func sharedInstance() -> Crashlytics

Objective-C

- (void)crash;


                    
                    
                    -throwException

                    -setUserIdentifier:

Specify a user identifier which will be visible in the Crashlytics UI.

Many of our customers have requested the ability to tie crashes to specific end-users of their application in order to facilitate responses to support requests or permit the ability to reach out for more information. We allow you to specify up to three separate values for display within the Crashlytics UI - but please be mindful of your end-user’s privacy.

We recommend specifying a user identifier - an arbitrary string that ties an end-user to a record in your system. This could be a database id, hash, or other value that is meaningless to a third-party observer but can be indexed and queried by you.

Optionally, you may also specify the end-user’s name or username, as well as email address if you do not have a system that works well with obscured identifiers.

Pursuant to our EULA, this data is transferred securely throughout our system and we will not disseminate end-user data unless required to by law. That said, if you choose to provide end-user contact information, we strongly recommend that you disclose this in your application’s privacy policy. Data privacy is of our utmost concern.

Parameters


                                identifier
